Some years ago I remember Ford Edge having a great comfortable seat with very nice bottom support but the new ones I was shocked how it didn't have much of bottom support. That usually leads to bad back pain at least for me.
Nice review Mike. I test drove an Edge SEL and an Edge ST. Both very nice vehicles. When I priced out the ST with all the options it was around $56K! Although the 2.7 L made it very tempting to get I just could not justify paying that much. The SEL at around 45K was better but when I compared it to the Tucson Limited that I have now that had more features and it was a better deal overall at around $39K. Too bad the Edge will not be offered after 2024 so Ford can concentrate on making EVs which I think is a mistake!
The Edge is not in the same segment as the Tucson. The Tucson is a direct competitor to the Ford Escape. That being said, great pick with the Tucson, amazing convenience features for the price and modern interior design.
@@emarte I think both Tucson/Edge can compete against each other as they both are similar in interior cargo/passenger volume. As far as the Escape being a competitor I think the Tucson overall is a better vehicle and feature wise is a better value.
A very nice-looking vehicle. The price of $44,850 dollars is at the top of what I would pay for this car. Like the electrically operated rear seats. Thank you for the review, Mike.

Agreed. Big mistake.

Thanks Martin.
@@chabbysrides you are welcome Mike.
Compare the edge to the Buick midsize SUV.
Is the passenger seat auto or manual.
Kia and the Hundai are less money but why not compare it to a vehicle like Ford Edge.
Instrument cluster is 10+ years old, on a 45K car. That's a joke. Should of had the 2.3L engine.
Yes. Ford forgot all about this vehicle and that is why sales are low and it is being discontinued after MY 2024 😢
