2021 Ford Edge- Ford’s Most Advanced Mid-Size SUV
A car buyer looking for a decent amount of space in a mid-size SUV must consider the 2021 Ford Edge. One of the reasons is that it comes with 2 rows of seats instead of 3, ensuring that more legroom and seating comfort is available for the passengers. The 2021 model appears to have a lot of changes as opposed to its previous version, all of which can be seen in this write-up.
Trim Levels:
Unique features can be seen in each of the following trims of the 2021 Ford Edge:
- SEL
- SE
- ST
- ST-Line
- Titanium
Outer Appearance:
Ford hasn’t made the new Edge stand out in terms of looks, at least from the front. One can see the classic black front grille, Ford’s characteristic blue logo, and the swept back headlamps. Customers get a mind boggling 9 different wheel size options to choose. The lines of design flow freely from front to back, giving it a look that is uncluttered and easy on the eye. However, as the popular saying goes, one should not mistake a book by its cover, which is where the interior comes into its own.
Power Options:
The 2021 Ford Edge gets FWD (Front Wheel Drive) as standard equipment, although users can always add AWD (All Wheel Drive) for extra. A 2-liter EcoBoost engine with 250 hp of power and 275 lbs.-ft of torque comes standard on all trim levels except the ST. It runs with the help of an 8-speed automatic transmission.
Those looking for a tremendous pull in their cars can opt for the S, which is fitted with insanely powerful 2.7-liter EcoBoost engine, generating a whopping 335 hp of power and 380 lbs.-ft of torque. Power comes through with the help of a 7-speed automatic transmission.
Interior Appearance:
Customers will find it easier to charge their devices inside this car as it gets 2 additional USB ports, making them 4 in total. Ford’s latest infotainment system, the SYNC4, is now part of this vehicle. It is better from SYNC3 due to features like:
- More number of natural Voice Command functions
- Compatibility with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay
- Several OTA (Over the Air) software updates
The touchscreen unit itself is 12 inches in size. Climate control is now available on-screen. Some of the other features of the 2021 Ford Edge include the following:
- Sound insulation given to the front side windows.
- The hands free tailgate making way for a brand new Power tailgate on the ST-Line.
- The ST trim getting a heated steering wheel.
Two speaker set ups are available. One can have either the standard six-speaker set up or ask for the Bang & Olufsen premium 12-speaker arrangements, which makes for better acoustics in the cabin.
Safety is a Priority:
Ford CoPilot 360™ Assist is the standard Ford safety program. Ford Edge ST is being recognized as the smartest SUV by the company ever, displaying more driver assisted technologies than before. Here is the list of the driver aids:
- BLIS (Blind Spot Information System)
- Automated Emergency Braking
- Pre Collision Assist with Pedestrian Detection System
- Lane-Keeping Assist
- Lane-Keeping Alert
- Hill-Start Assist
- AdvanceTrac with Roll Stability Control and Curve Control
- Active Lane Control
