I’m good with my 2011 Edge Limited she still just fine and runs great. Been holding out for Ford to come out with “wow” version. The new Explorer is looking pretty good !
My 2011 Edge was one of my fave cars I owned until someone drove it without permission and crashed it T_T Such a great looking car. I would def still be driving it.
It just looks frumpy to me. The interior tho is really nice. The screen however just looks out of place. They should have just redesigned it and then put the screen in there.
I must be the only one who loves the way it looks. Everything else looks overstyled. Judging by the explorer and escape, the redesign will have worse suspension tuning and glitches. This one is still comfortable.
I have a 2015 edge that I love. Looking to eventually replace it but every year it seems to look more and more outdated, and the build quality goes down. Lots of room in both rows, comfortable, and quiet though. Price point this car still makes a lot of sense. It’s also an easy oil change for those that are into changing their own.
Thank you for including in your last several reviews the presence of a spare tire - some brands/models have dropped that feature in favor of a can of flat-fixer - a nasty surprise if it’s 2:00 AM on the Interstate! 😳Great review - really liked the new screen. Congrats on 208k subs, too! 😎
Bought the 2020 edge 2.0 L. Turbo charge engine 250 horsepower, wanted a vehicle nobody would look twice at but something with a lot of power. Glad the dealership didn't have any 2021's in yet, not a fan of that new control screen. If you want something flashy with less horsepower check out the GMC terrain.
I brought the 2020 Edge Titanium last month. I love it. I could have purchased the 2021 for about the same price but the huge screen was a turn off for me. Trying to look like a Tesla screen I guess. By making the screen bigger, they had to remove some controls that were easily accessible to accommodate the screen. I like NOT having to access the screen to do some tasks... Love my car.... Neighbor loved it so much she bought an identical one the next day..... Also didnt like the 2021 screen.....
I don't like that they deleted the cover over the phone charger and also the cover above the screen. I have a 19 ST and like that it has the cover, so if I want to leave my phone, it can't be seen. It's nice it has Sync 4 , but the screen looks as though it was glued right over the old one.
True they have been all about trucks and their suv till later this year or early next year when they introduce the mustang Sedan and that going to be crazy.
It's an OK car I'm not sure that this giant screen is practical enough.. The guage cluster is OUTDATED it's been on every ford car since say 2011 or 2012 I'd personally look other way Kia or Huyndai maybe.. Thanks for this informative review guys.. You're doing such a great job.. Cheers
It never turns out well when they put something this large in a cabin never meant for it. That bezel is huge and the integration is terrible. Thought it couldn't get any worse than the 10" screen in the Explorer. That screen looks so aftermarket, and not in a good way. The overall design is severely dated and in need of a makeover. Ford is starting to really lag in interiors.
Back to the Explorer ST review a few months ago - do you guys have more outtakes of the spider/worm incident. Please share. I think it’s legendary. There’s a big worm on me. Get it off.
This thing looks old fashioned to me. The Mazda CX-5 looks so much better even tho it’s not a direct competitor. But I like Japanese vehicles more than most domestics. That front grill is just not cute to me the ST- Line Grill is better with that mesh. Just my opinion. Great review men! Thank you for taking the time to bring us the latest Edge! I love supporting you guys no matter what vehicle you review! I’ll watch everything and like it! And I’m subbed.
Come on, Ford. I know the F-150 is an essential vehicle for the company, but that doesn't mean you have to half-ass the rest of the lineup. The Ford Edge can be a fantastic car if you put more effort into it.
I love the Edge, but it does need a redesign. They should’ve saved that screen for when they re design it. And is it just me, or is the startup chime louder and sound harsher?😂
@@michaelragusa3520 i never said they were improving they are upgrading their cars they added a new electric car they updated the f150 and they are gonna update the F250 interior
I love it. Why change what works. Toyota’s lineup is way more outdated…That being said the Edge is probably one of the smoothest driving suvs out there
Ummm the only outdated part of Toyota’s lineup is the bigger suvs and trucks like the sequoia, 4runner, Land Cruiser, tundra, and Tacoma. So that’s just 5 vehicles and realize Toyota has a lot more to update like sedans witch Ford stopped making so it’s excusable for Toyota to not to have all the vehicles updated because the have a lot to constantly update
It is a 20201 and it still has that old 2008 sounding chime. Why haven't they switched it to the newer chime that is softer and/or changed the chime entirely.
Most of these from 2015-present have the newer Ford chime, but I don't understand why this particular one (and maybe some others) have that same old 2007/2008 sounding chime.
Thank you for the thorough review! One question I have is the view over the hood as I noticed it (the hood) to be rather forcing the driver to raise the seat?
I have one as a work vehicle and the hood bulge at the corner windshield/fender line irritates me and forces me to raise the seat. A pillars are thick and dash is long which dont help. A VW Atlas cross sport with the turbo 2.0 is comparable and much better sight lines and great to drive. Don't get me wrong, the edge drives decently. I just prefer the VW if it was my $.
Wow. Other than sticking a huge infotainment display in it, they didn't do much updating to the interior. "Not the Edge's (F)ocus" LOL 😂🤣😅 Great Ford pun! When did they put an 8-speed in the Edge? Last time I drove one, it was still dragging along with the same Select Shift 6-speed that's in my Fusion.
Make no mistake the 8 speed in the newer models is not exactly an upgrade over the 6F35 in the previous edges/fusions. The new transmission is based largely on the old 6F35 with a new second gear and a new eighth gear. The way they did it makes the shifting really awkward as the shift from 2-3 is much smaller than 3-4. It makes driving it an unpleasant experience, so much so that TSB's are coming out to update the characteristics of the transmission software.
I just purchased a brand new 2021 ford edge and I noticed my two exhaust pipes are hidden way underneath the car they do not stick out, all the other edges I see has them fully exposed why is this...thanks in advance...
You must have the Edge SE or SEL. This is the Titanium that still has the twin pipes, also still comes with a spare tire, and turn signals on the side mirrors. Ford removed all these good things from the 2021 Edge SE and SEL. But you still get that oversized screen. Good trade off or bad? I say bad.
@@rockyrockafella8527 thanks for the info, I did notice the turn signals and the heated mirrors are missing also, these new ones have lighted side sensors, big deal and the HD radio which I had on my 2018 edge titanium is gone, this was a bad move for me, btw I have an SEL now....
I’m surprised Ford is still making these. I get it. It’s the next size up , then you got the Explorer. It’s like the “ midsize “ SUV’s are getting shorted. It’s small or big. Now the Bronco and Sport is out. There lineup is too saturated. Something is going to give.
2016 has the center pass through as well. I have it. And the interior has much more storage than this 2021 model. This year is a downgrade for sure, the screen being the biggest flaw. That thing is way too big, and very thoughtlessly placed. It looks silly, and as someone else said, it looks aftermarket. What a disappointment. Sigh... P.S. thanks for the review! It was a big help in my car shopping experience.
Sadly, this ridiculous portrait aftermarket-look screen could very well be the death of the Ford Edge if they don't fix it soon. Turned landscape and bringing back the analog climate control buttons and knobs would be a huge improvement. It took the wind out of my sails in my quest for a new Edge.
Looking at replacing our 2013 Edge. I don't like that I can’t stand up under the lift gate when it's open (I’m only 6’1”) Doesn’t look like they’ve improved that for 2021. The Edge is also outrageously expensive compared to competitors! $38k SEL AWD compared to $32k SEL AWD Santa Fe with more features! That’s nuts! I've driven Fords forever and want to be a loyal customer....but Ford is losing it's Edge and has been for sometime now. Come on Ford, give me a reason to buy your product!
Be aware. My wife and I have a 2015 Ford Edge AWD. It rattles a lot. These rattles make driving the Edge on a trip for me very unpleasurable. Buyer beware. An online Auto Magazine site commented that earlier Edge models were "rattle traps."

This comes out with one of the best monitors possibly equipped with vehicles, way better than any mediocre tablets.
That same old gauge cluster in all these fords absolutely kills any desire I have for them.

Honestly this thing is really outdated and needs a complete redesign.
Exactly
Right
Ford won’t touch it, it’s going out of production in 2023.
$50k and no digital dash? Its the same dash setup as the one i got in 2012!
It will be redesigned in late 2022 as a 2023.
I don’t know anyone who doesn’t hate the shift knob. I would love to buy the ST but I can’t live with the knob.
Good luck controlling the temp or fan speed all winter long while wearing gloves. I'm glad my Santa Fe has normal buttons and knobs.
It has heated steering wheel, why would you even wear gloves in a car
Honestly. Imagine if it broke...the cost to replace 🤪🤪🤪
Lol also that what auto start is for!
Heated steering wheel duhh
This is a vehicle for previous Ford owners who don't do any research.
6:45 you mean same cluster from like 10 years ago
Wow this is a nice suv you have done a good review
I hate the cubby under the climate control, once you get junk in it it's very hard to clean out and hard to access the usb ports.
I am a 30-year-old person who still likes the small comforts of physical buttons to use... that screen is ridiculous, sheesh!
On the 12" screen, is there any animation when you start the vehicle?
Looks like someone decided to customize it and put a Tesla screen in. This can’t be the real 2021 Ford Edge. Looks hideous.

Great work with this review, guys!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks man!
The Edge is not aging very well. Throwing in a bigger display turns out doesn’t fix that much either.
Ford: “we’re focusing on trucks and *SUV’s* “
Ford Edge: looking like it came straight out of 2013 🤡
How about 2012.
It looks good!
The center pass through is not new for 2021. It is found in 2015+ models.
The seat fold buttons need a seat lift function. I have to manually put them back up in my edge. Miss my murano. They have it.

I wish it had the digital 12.3 inch display like the escape and the new explorer they went lazy not doing the plus needs heads up like other lines do
The steering wheel is the same as on smaller Ford vehicles, it’s the same as on Fiesta. I hoped for a more premium one..
Is the Edge available with roof rails and crossbars?
I’m a huge Ford fan but that infotainment screen is laughable
What would you recommend over this?
I agree. It couldn’t look any cheaper. It looks like it was purchased from a third party Chinese company through the alibaba website.
It is a 20201 and it still has that old 2008 sounding chime. Why haven't they switched it to the newer chime that is softer and/or changed the chime entirely.
Most of these from 2015-present have the newer Ford chime, but I don't understand why this particular one (and maybe some others) have that same old 2007/2008 sounding chime.
They come with low rating tires I ordered a build of the 21 titanium elite and getting different tires will make it quieter
From what I understand at some point in 2022 there will be a complete redesign released as a 2023 model.
I actually heard that Ford will no longer be making the edge in 2023. Which one is true?
Looks nice, but it seems overpriced. Not worth it for a mere screen upgrade...
Thank you for the thorough review! One question I have is the view over the hood as I noticed it (the hood) to be rather forcing the driver to raise the seat?
I have one as a work vehicle and the hood bulge at the corner windshield/fender line irritates me and forces me to raise the seat. A pillars are thick and dash is long which dont help.

What trim level is that on that particular edge with that massive infotainment screen in the middle?????
They all have it
Needs a whole redesign
Are they really discontinuing the edge on 2023?
Wow. Other than sticking a huge infotainment display in it, they didn't do much updating to the interior. "Not the Edge's (F)ocus" LOL 😂🤣😅 Great Ford pun! When did they put an 8-speed in the Edge? Last time I drove one, it was still dragging along with the same Select Shift 6-speed that's in my Fusion.
😂 that wasn't even intentional haha (also I think the 8 speed was added in 2019)
The Ford Edge certainly isn’t cutting any edges anymore.
Make no mistake the 8 speed in the newer models is not exactly an upgrade over the 6F35 in the previous edges/fusions.

It's a head-scratcher where Edge belongs within the Ford family. 13 years have passed and nobody seems to have an answer.
It's in the name. It's on the edge of their product priorities
On the edge of Ford’s SUV lineup
Based on the noise that the suspension made when you drove over the expansion joints in the road, I am guessing that the ride isn't that great.
