If you drive the 2020 Ford Edge, you’ll quickly see why it is a favorite. The quiet cabin is home to cushy seats, ample wiggle room, and helpful technology. While the driver still has a job to do, Ford CoPilot 360 reduces stress in the fast lane and the parking lot. Shoppers can choose the SE, SEL, sleek Titanium or sporty ST at Bill Knight Ford Dealer Tulsa OK.
The main Ecoboost engine provides turbo power for the daily commute. A new eight-speed automatic helps it earn 29 miles per gallon on the highway. Ecoboost stop-start reduces the amount of gas that is usually wasted at redlights or in the fast-food drive-through.
The ST engine is a twin-turbo V6 that leads the class with 335 horsepower. The transmission has a special shift schedule that can adjust to road conditions and driving habits. Sharp engine braking provides just the right deceleration as the Edge heads into a curve or corner. Electric-power assisted steering makes this Edge especially responsive to driver commands. Ready for more challenges, all-wheel drive replaces the standard front-wheel drivetrain.
CoPilot 360 is on board to help the Edge stay out of harm’s way. The driver is kept aware by a blind spot monitor, a lane watch, and a frontal collision watch. Backing up the lane warnings, Edge steering helps to correct trajectory. An automatic braking system can respond to collision warnings.
Also standard, the rearview camera has a dedicated washer to make sure you see everything in your reverse path. The standard rear cross alert is ready to warn you about approaching traffic.
The spaciousness of the cabin is matched by a large cargo hold. It measures 39.2 cubic feet, making it one of the biggest in this class. Of course, you can fold the seats to get more space when you need it.
The SE edition has dual-zone automatic climate settings, a power-adjustable seat, and the full Sync 3 system with an eight-inch touchscreen. AppLink is supplemented by Apple CarPlay and its rival Android Auto. You can access a WiFi hotspot.
SEL models upgrade the audio, adding three more speakers. They also have ActiveX upholstery, a power passenger seat, and heated front seats. This is the first trim level where you can add a panoramic roof.
Titanium cabins are especially luxurious with leather upholstery and other premium amenities. Drivers will appreciate the heated, power-adjusting steering wheel. This level also adds the 12-speaker Bang and Olsen audio system. This is the perfect companion to the navigation-enable touchscreen. A dual-headrest entertainment system is on the kid’s menu.
For more CoPilot 360, you may choose the parallel and perpendicular parking system. Ford also offers its front-view camera for parking and other slow maneuvers. Evasive steering adds another level of safety-conscious semi-automation.
Now that you know more, you surely will want to test drive the Edge at Bill Knight Ford dealer Tulsa OK. You’ll have your pick of a rainbow of fresh colors.
