<h2>Ford Power-Up Version History</h2>

The version history of the Ford Power-Up updates for the Ford SYNC Version 4 and 4a hardware developed by Ford Motor Company began with the release of the 2021 Mustang Mach-E in December 2020. This was simply referred to as over-the-air (OTA) updates until May 2021 when Ford adopted the "Ford Power-Up" name.

Overview

The Ford Power-Up updates have the ability to upgrade the user interface as well as reprogram module firmware within the vehicle. Ford expects to produce 33 million vehicles with Power-Up capability by 2028. Not all vehicles have the same software layout due to the differences in the user interfaces. SYNC 4 comes with an 8 or 12 inch horizontally oriented main display while SYNC 4a comes with a 12 or 15.5 inch vertically oriented main display.

BlueCruise

The current version of BlueCruise is v1.5, released in October 2024. Currently only 2025 Mustang Mach-E vehicles will have BlueCruise 1.5, though Ford indicates other model years may eventually receive it.

• BlueCruise v1.5 features:
  • Automatic lane change
• BlueCruise v1.4 features:
  • Greater in-lane stability with less ping-ponging
  • Automatic speed adjustment through more curves
• BlueCruise v1.3 features:
  • Fewer disengagements through curves and narrow lanes
• BlueCruise v1.2 features:
  • Lane Change Assist (change lanes with a tap of the turn signal)
  • Predictive Speed Assist (adjust vehicle speed for road curves, roundabouts and more)
  • In-Lane Repositioning (helps hands-free highway driving feel more natural by keeping the vehicle in its lane while subtly shifting its position away from vehicles in adjacent lanes, especially large semi trucks)

Important Note: Ford Power-Up updates may not apply to all model years, nor are they sequential. Release notes may also change mid-rollout. The list below is generally in order of appearing in the wild, but this is not reflective of the order they are delivered to vehicles or that they will even be released to a particular vehicle. I try to keep this limited to over-the-air updates, but some of the information below comes from FDRS sources.
