The Ford Edge, introduced in 2006 and redesigned in 2015, has long served as Ford’s two-row midsize crossover positioned above the Escape and below the three-row Explorer. The 2024 model delivers a refined ride, strong turbocharged engines, and a roomy five-passenger interior. With its discontinuation announced, the Edge is poised to have strong used-market demand thanks to its practicality, comfort, and robust safety tech.

Exterior Design
The 2024 Edge maintains its clean, modern design with a bold hexagonal grille, sleek LED headlights, and a muscular, sculpted profile. Titanium models add chrome accents, 20-inch premium wheels, and a refined rear fascia with LED taillights. The wide stance and raked windshield give it a premium, contemporary look without being overly aggressive. Popular colors include Star White, Rapid Red, and Iconic Silver.
Interior, Comfort & Materials
Inside, the Edge impresses with a spacious, quiet cabin. Soft-touch materials and high-quality trim pieces give it an upscale feel. The Titanium trim features leather-trimmed seats, power-adjustable driver and passenger seats, and enhanced acoustic glass. The seating position is commanding, rear-seat legroom is among the best in class, and noise isolation is excellent for highway driving. Cargo space is wide and easily accessible thanks to the low lift-over height.

Driving Performance & Handling
The 2.0L EcoBoost engine delivers smooth power with good mid-range torque. The 8-speed automatic shifts confidently, and the standard AWD provides surefooted traction in all weather. Ride comfort is one of the Edge’s strengths — soft yet controlled, ideal for long-distance commuting. Handling is stable, with accurate steering and minimal body roll.
For enthusiasts, the Edge ST with the 2.7L twin-turbo V6 (335 hp / 380 lb-ft) provides genuinely sporty acceleration and a firmer suspension tune.
Fuel Efficiency
2.0L AWD: 21 city / 28 highway / 23 combined
| ST (2.7L V6) | 19 city / 25 highway / 21 combined |
While not class-leading, the Edge’s fuel economy is competitive for a two-row midsize SUV with standard AWD.
Practicality & Everyday Usability
With nearly 40 cu ft of cargo space behind the second row, the Edge offers more room than many rivals. The large doors make entry and exit easy, visibility is good, and the 180-degree rear camera aids tight parking. The rear seats fold nearly flat via quick-release levers, and the cabin’s numerous storage pockets enhance daily usability.

| Basic Warranty | 3 years / 36,000 miles |
| Powertrain | 5 years / 60,000 miles |

Maintenance costs are average for the segment, and Ford’s wide dealer network ensures easy servicing.

| SE | ~$39,000 |
| SEL | ~$41,000 |
