Ladies and gentlemen, let us introduce you to the 2018 Ford Edge. While the Escape and Explorer get all the attention, the Ford Edge flies under the radar and just may be the best-kept secret in the Ford lineup. The Edge is a mature, stylish, and spacious crossover SUV (CUV) that is a joy to drive. It looks like the secret is out, so read along and find out why the 2018 Ford Edge may be the right CUV for your lifestyle.
“The Edge’s tidy dimensions put it in a sweet spot between the Escape and the Explorer in the Ford SUV lineup. The mid-size, two-row crossover offers a cabin that is well appointed and spacious enough to accommodate four adults and their luggage for a road trip.” - Car and Driver
There are four different trim levels available for the Edge, including the SE, SEL, Titanium, and Sport options. New for this year Ford offers the SEL Sport Appearance package which gives the Edge a darkened look with grey 19-inch aluminum wheels, skid plates, grille accents, rear spoiler, and exterior mirror caps. Starting at just under $30,000, the Edge is an affordable, stylish, and capable SUV. Browse our inventory and find the Edge that’s right for you.
The base engine for 2018 is a 2.0 L EcoBoost engine that creates 245 hp, making the Edge capable of towing up to 3,500 lbs (1,587 kg). Tow your boat to the lake, or a small travel trailer to a nearby campground. Also available is a 3.5 L V6 engine that puts out 280 hp, and a twin turbo V6 that puts out 315 hp. The Edge is a mature-looking CUV with plenty of power when you need it.
“The base Edge’s 220-hp turbo-4 spools up to 245 hp when premium gas courses through its veins. It’s a fine bargain choice, with enough low-end guts to pull 3,500 pounds through available all-wheel drive and a 6-speed automatic.” - The Car Connection
Ford has improved the Edge’s cabin for 2018, with more soft-touch materials used throughout and a simple, uncluttered dash. It’s spacious, comfortable, and is a pleasure to drive or simply ride in as a passenger. The Ford Edge is an excellent vehicle for anyone who spends a lot of time on the road: commuters, sales professionals, roadtrippers, etc.
The exterior style of the Edge is just as impressive as the inside. Perfectly angled from front to back, the 2018 Edge has a light, agile look that has been compared to the BMW X5—a luxury SUV with a much higher price tag.
“Spare, clean sheet metal and a warmed-up interior give the latest Ford Edge a long-lived appeal.” - The Car Connection
