Snip:
"For now, though, the 1.3 release of BlueCruise will land on all compatible Ford Mustang Mach-E SUVs sometime this summer.

F-150 Lightning owners with BlueCruise will have to wait a little longer, but Omari promises they’ll have it by the end of the year."


Omari is the CEO of Ford's autonomy subsidiary called Latitude AI, which develops BlueCruise.

Wonder if we will skip 1.2 then.....

@trev5150 get ready to rebuild all your charging locations again for this update.

That appears to be the case for 2021 - 2022 Mach-E's. Ford is saying they will go directly to 1.3 with this summer's update (whenever it comes). I would assume Lightnings will be the same once the update is available.

Are the 22 Lightnings included in this release?

It says Lightning owners with BlueCruise, so it sure sounds like it. 2021 - 2023 Mach-E's with BlueCruise will all get updated so I don't see any reason they'd withhold it from any 2022 - 2023 Lightnings with BlueCruise.

Well at least we’re getting an update finally. I was starting to wonder if 1.2 was really gonna happen.

Considering FOMCO is hoping we are willing to spend $800 a year(after our trial period) for this tech they will definitely put it out to all their current BlueCruise customers.

I'm guessing you haven't seen the video of the guy who took a '23 IPMA and integrated just that into his F-150 and now has BC 1.2 (except without the IPC BC 1.2 graphics)?

Sounds like they’re skipping 1.2 for us. I am fine with that.
