What smart technology does the 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning offer? Some of the best smart and connected technology features in the 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning truck include BlueCruise, available Onboard Scales, Intelligent Range, and available Phone as A Key. Keep reading below to learn more about these features and how they are updated. You can find Ford F-150 trucks at Sherwood Ford in Sherwood Park, AB.
What is BlueCruise? It is a hands-free driving system by Ford. Canada and the U.S. feature more than 160,000 km of pre-qualified divided highways called Hands-Free Blue Zones where BlueCruise can be used. More Hands-Free Blue Zones will be approved in time.
If you haven’t heard about Onboard Scales, that’s the feature that makes it possible to estimate the payload of your truck. With that information, your truck can give you a more accurate driving range estimate using Intelligent Range, since payload can impact the range of a vehicle. These two features together make it easier to plan a trip and properly load your truck.
The available Phone as a Key feature has an obvious use: It allows you to use your phone as a key for your vehicle. What the name doesn’t tell you is that Phone as a Key allows you to lock, unlock, and start your truck without taking out your phone or key. Simply being in range is enough to allow you to use these functions.
Smart technology needs updates from time to time to keep it bug-free, improve its performance, and add new functionality. Thankfully, with Ford Power-Up software updates, it is possible to update your vehicle’s smart technologies over the air. In fact, most updates will take fewer than two minutes and will be available at any location.
