The Ford Edge is an SUV that is built to impress. Between the stunning interior features and the impressive performance specifications, the 2019 Edge has a lot to write home about. If you’re on the hunt for a new, impressive SUV, schedule a test drive with the 2019 Edge. Let’s take a deep dive under the hood and discover everything that makes the Edge a top SUV.

High-Tech Performance Features for the Modern World

A new SUV that isn’t equipped with the latest and greatest performance features can seem old and pedestrian. The 2019 Ford Edge doesn’t have this problem, thanks to the incredible list of available performance-boosting tech. 

Efficiency is always on the top of everyone’s mind, even those who are willing to sacrifice some fuel economy for a larger SUV. The 2019 Edge gives a little back with Auto Start-Stop capability. This handy features powers down the engine when you’re stopped and fires it back up the moment your foot leaves the brake pedal. This can be a lifesaver for city drivers or those who hit a lot of rush-hour traffic on their commute.

The eight-speed transmission on the 2019 Edge comes standard with an auto/manual feature that has gained more popularity each year. This feature allows drivers to override the automatic transmission and switch gears on their own using paddle shifters mounted near the steering wheel.

The engine itself has also received a lot of attractive upgrades, including a push-to-launch button on the ST trims and other tuning changes throughout. For example, the engine braking features helps the vehicle decelerate faster before heading into tight curves. The cabin received a number of design changes to reduce engine noise for a more enjoyable drive. An available 2.7-liter EcoBoost engine makes your drive more exhilarating than ever before. With a max output of 335 horsepower and 380 pound-feet of torque, you’ll be creating excuses to hit the road.

Visual Changes for a Refreshed Look

While the engine and performance features make the drive more exciting than ever, the visual design changes inside and out will be what turns people’s heads. The body styling has been refreshed to create a sportier look than previous year’s releases. There are several available wheel designs to choose from to make your Edge truly personal. Different trim levels offer a wide range of interior features, such as leather seating, ambient lighting, and chrome embellishments.

Loaded With Today’s Top Tech

Thankfully, the 2019 Ford Edge has updated tech features to match its stylish appearance and top-of-the-line performance features. The Ford Co-Pilot 360 suite of driver assistance features help instill confidence and make the roads safer for everyone. SYNC3 with Alexa compatibility connects your SUV to the world like never before. Prime shopping, voice navigation, and access to over 45,000 Amazon Echo skills are all at your grasp thanks to Ford + Alexa.
