Whether you’re looking for an SUV to set out for fun-filled adventures or to simply make your everyday commutes easier, the 2023 Ford Edge is ready to accommodate. In addition to offering standard Intelligent AWD, this two-row SUV delivers responsive performance alongside a wide array of driver-assist features and impressive technology. Although there’s a lot to admire about this edition, from its comfortable interior to its stylish exterior, here are five of our favorite features.
1. A Sporty 2.7-Liter Engine
Although two extraordinary engines are available for this edition, a 2.0-liter and a 2.7-liter, it’s the latter that’s garnered the most attention from drivers. This is easily explainable by its impressive 335-horsepower output, though another reason is that it pairs with the unique Sport Mode button, a feature that allows you to improve the engine’s responsiveness, augment shifting at each gear, and enhance Active Noise Control for a sportier driving experience that you can both feel and hear.
2. An Infotainment System
The vehicle’s infotainment system, SYNC 4A, delivers everything from turn-by-turn navigation instructions to multimedia playback. With this system, the world is at your fingertips, unless you prefer using your voice, as it offers both a full-color 12-inch LCD touchscreen and voice recognition technology, allowing you two different ways to make phone calls, ask for directions, or access music from either your phone, the AM/FM radio, or SiriusXM satellite radio channels.
3. Luxuriously Comfy Seats
All the seating options offered with this edition are impressive and sure to make every drive more comfortable, with stylish front-row seats and a convenient 60/40 split-bench seat available for the rear. Both the driver’s and front passenger’s seats offer leather trim and power adjustability, as well as heating and cooling settings, while the rear seats also offer a heating setting, allowing everyone to stay snug on long road trips.
4. A Foot-Activated Liftgate
With the convenient hands-free liftgate in the back, you can easily open it using your foot whenever your hands are full. All you have to do is simply swipe your foot in a side-to-side motion beneath the bumper area to quickly open it, though if you have your key fob in your hand, you can also simply press a button on it for entry.
5. A Camera for Off-Roading
When venturing through off-road trails, the 180-degree camera provides coverage of the area just in front of the vehicle, so you can easily see if any low-lying objects are in your way. Not only does it show wide-spanning views when you need them, but it also allows you to view multiple angles on the SYNC system with its split-screen function.
Versatile, comfortable, and ready for fun, the 2023 Edge has it all with its off-road capabilities, sophisticated interior, and next-level driver-assist features.
