With its unique blend of strong performance, fuel efficiency, and standard all-wheel drive, the 2022 Edge blazes a trail for other SUVs in its class to follow. As a natural leader, its spacious 2-row cabin seats up to five passengers, so nobody is left behind when it comes to weekend getaways with family or friends. To help explain its popularity, here are some of the key features that you can expect to find in the 2022 Ford Edge.

Superior Performance

Among the 2022 Edge’s five different trim levels, two fuel-efficient EcoBoost engines are offered. Titanium, SE, SEL, and ST-Line models all come with a 2.0-liter engine that packs 250 horsepower with 280 pound-feet of torque. The sporty ST models feature a 2.7-liter engine that increases horsepower output to 335 and torque to 380 pound-feet.
 
Two smooth-shifting transmissions are offered as well, with an 8-speed paired to the 2.0-liter engine and a 7-speed mated to the 2.7-liter. Intelligent All-Wheel Drive, which monitors surface conditions by the second, comes standard in every Edge.

Sophistication and Style

In addition to reclining front bucket seats, a 60/40 split-fold-flat bench can be found in the back of the Edge, which also reclines and has fold-down armrests. Other interior features include available ambient lighting, a standard cargo management system, and a dual-zone temperature control system.

As a bold-looking SUV, the Edge has sleek lines running along the sides of it, while the rear is arched upwards to give the vehicle a more intimidating look from the side. Opening the available hands-free liftgate in the rear of the vehicle is simple when all you have to do is wave your foot beneath its motion sensors below the bumper.

Robust Tech Features

As for technology, accessing the internet when you’re far from home is made possible with the 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot feature, while charging your smartphone is also no problem with the available cordless charging pad.

SYNC 4A, with its 12.1-inch touchscreen, is the ultimate infotainment solution, as it offers hands-free control over music, power seat settings, temperature preferences, apps, and more. Plus, listening to your favorite songs is a whole different experience with the stunning 12-speaker B&O audio system, which features a premium hard-hitting subwoofer.

Dynamic Safety Options

While admiring the Edge’s many advanced safety features, one major highlight is the Enhanced Active Park Assist option. Not only can the system locate appropriate parking spaces for you, but it can then park the vehicle all by itself after you’ve shifted the vehicle into neutral and pressed a confirmation button.

With the available Adaptive Cruise Control System, you can set a preferred speed level that you’d like the vehicle to maintain, and it will do its best to stay at that speed while also slowing down or completely stopping when other vehicles ahead of yours do.

The 2022 Edge flawlessly blends energetic performance with contemporary tech and safety features. To take this all-wheel-drive Ford SUV out for a test drive, contact us or stop in at Bob Maxey Ford in Detroit today.
