Family-friendly, affordable, and loaded with safety features, the 2020 Ford Edge is a great car for the family. You’ll find plenty of room for everyone inside of this midsize crossover SUV, and with its great gas mileage, the Edge is easy on your wallet. Here are several key features that make the 2020 Ford Edge a good choice for you and your family.
Stylish Exterior
With five trims to choose from: SE, SEL, ST-Line, Titanium, and ST, there are plenty of options to find the perfect Ford Edge to fit your lifestyle. The elegant yet sporty design of the Edge is eye-catching and looks great whether you’re going to dinner in the city or taking the family to the mountains for a ski trip. For an extra sporty look, choose the ST-Line that has 20-inch wheels, slick LED lighting, and black exterior trim.
Powerful Performance
You can choose from two engine options to power your Edge. All models, except the top-tier ST, get a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 250 horsepower and 275 pound-feet of torque. The ST gets a beefier engine with its 2.7-liter twin-turbocharged V-6 engine that delivers 335 horsepower and 380 pound-feet of torque. Both engines pair with an eight-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive comes standard on the four lower trims, but you can choose to upgrade to the all-wheel drive, which comes standard on the ST trim. Properly equipped, the Edge can tow up to 3,500 pounds.
Comfortable Interior
Two rows of seats can fit five comfortably. Cloth, synthetic leather, or supple leather front seats are power-adjustable, and the upper trims provide ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. With 113.9 cubic feet of passenger volume, everyone can ride comfortably. There’s plenty of room for luggage, groceries, and sports equipment with 39.2 cubic feet of storage space when the second-row seats are upright. When the seats are folded down, there are 73.4 cubic feet of space available. In addition to voluminous cargo space, the Edge has numerous cubbyholes and compartments to hold everyone’s personal items.
Innovative Technology
Ford’s Sync 3 infotainment system, with an eight-inch touch screen, Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and Amazon Alexa integration, comes standard across the trims. You also get Bluetooth, two USB ports, a Wi-Fi hot spot, SiriusXM satellite radio, and a six-speaker sound system. The Titanium and ST trims get a premium 12-speaker Bang & Olufsen audio system. With the Sync 3 AppLink you can use voice commands to activate apps on your smartphone for hands-free driving.
Safety and Driver-Assist Features
When you’re driving your family around, you’ll be happy to know that the Edge has loads of safety features. Standard in all trims is Ford’s Co-Pilot360 bundle of safety and driver-assist features. With this bundle, you’ll get forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, and automatic high-beam headlights. Other standard features include lane-keep assist, lane departure warning, post-collision braking, and rain-sensing windshield wipers. Key optional features include: adaptive cruise control, evasive steering assist, and automatic parking assist.
