With the 2025 model, Ford debuts BlueCruise 1.5, the latest iteration of its hands-free highway driving system. This updated version includes an exciting new feature: automatic lane changes that can intuitively execute lane changes when necessary, without the driver input. The brand’s internal tests show that BlueCruise 1.5 can autonomously perform up to 45% of driver-initiated lane changes, helping to reduce driver fatigue and enhance road safety. Another highlight is the addition of a standard heat pump. Designed to optimize energy consumption in colder conditions, this system works to maintain efficiency by minimizing the drain on battery life. This is especially beneficial for drivers in colder climates, as the heat pump provides warmth without compromising the vehicle’s range.  

Ford recognizes that Mustang enthusiasts value personalization, and the new Sport Appearance Package on Premium models delivers just that. Also, there is a new Ford Connectivity Package, offering a robust in-vehicle experience with 5G Wi-Fi for seamless internet access on the go. This Wi-Fi hotspot allows connectivity for up to ten devices, making road trips, camping adventures, or tailgating events more connected and enjoyable. Drivers and passengers can access popular apps like YouTube and Alexa-powered audio streaming through the car’s interface, turning idle time into entertainment moments. Additionally, its navigation system is improved with features such as EV Trip Planner, Predictive Destinations, and Route Guidance, all of which are designed to make electric vehicle navigation intuitive and hassle-free.
