I recently bought a 2016 Edge Sport, and I love it. Tons of power, great ride, quiet cabin, surprisingly large cargo area with the rear seats down, and a blast to drive in sport mode, with paddle shifters. This is a powerful yet quiet engine with a lot of zip. It's a great looking vehicle from every angle, and it is refined beyond what you'd expect from Ford.
Great review. I work at the plant in Canada where the Edge is manufactured. Thank you for your in depth review. I own the Titanium version of the Edge and Sync 3 has now replaced the old version and it is a massive improvement. We are constantly improving on build quality and for 2017 their have been some small changes to the interior and chassis of the vehicle. Thanks again for your positive review.
I traveled 12500 km in just 1 month. We had a comfortable journey with a family of 5, 6 suitcases and a 30 liter car refrigerator, even though the temperature was 40 degrees and the roads were very mountainous and very bumpy. edge twin turbo. This is the first time I drive such a durable and solid car, thank you.
Sometimes I get tired by the duration of your reviews but on the other hand I know that you'll cover all about everything... and I trust your judgment Tomas.
+YC JONI As we would like to work as professional as possible I think that is an important aspect and I really appreciate it that you recognize this as well. Thanks for your support :)
Thomas, I have really enjoyed your reviews of the Giulia, Mustang and the Edge, especially your attention to detail and your fairness. It is quite a contrast to so many reviewers ( often British for some reason ) who have preconceived ideas about the status of a marque and give a car a superficial, often dismissive, assessment. Danke.
A very good review and equally good product from Ford... This is a serious alternative to the over saturation of the Korean brands were're fed these days. If I could make a negative comment about the Ford products of late is, despite the competent styling and engines, they seem to lack focus on interior design. It is about time they refresh their interior design team, as it is part of the attraction to any brand- how it looks and feel inside.
Good detailed review as usual Thomas, the car looks nice and fresh, the back design reminds of the 1st generation ST model, i personally feel the interior could have been nicer in design. but frankly, it is livable.
Another great review from you all. My mother just picked up a Titanium with the red, which Ford calls Ruby Red over here and it looks great. Been impressed with Ford's color choices as of late. Their blues are very attractive.
Interesting review. I really like the colour car especially with the black front grill. I think here in the UK it will sell well. Thanks again Thomas I really love your reviews.
I would like to see offroad capability of that 4x4 inteligent system. Maybe a test against Toyota Prado. Off roar test means driving through mud, snow*, holes, up on hill etc.
In the U.S I have the Edge Titanium that has the 4 cylinder 2.0 with twin turbo with 245hp and 285 torque. It’s pretty quick. Quicker than most SUV’s in its class.
Hi i brought this car after your indepth review of the sport just won't to say thank you John love your TH-cam videos and happy new year to you Toby from London.
Man you gotta try one of the petrol V6, 2.7 liter biturbo powered Edge Sport here in Canada. That 315HP engine turns this car into something really awesome.
Finally Edge in Europe, can't wait for Explorer. Very good review, great car overall, just too expensive. Price gap between Kuga (Escape) and Edge is just toooooo big. Groundless...
+Lech G. Unfortunately Explorer won't be coming to anywhere outside of the USA, as it doesn't fit in with Ford's floorpan plans. It's a serious bummer, as probably like yourself, I'd buy an Explorer in a heartbeat!. Hey ho..... :(
Drove one in the States and liked it. Felt small over there but here you will get a bit more of a feeling of presence for your money. Really like that Blue colour. Same issue as many though...it's just too expensive in the UK/Europe. An Evoque/Discovery will hold it's value much better.
I like the car. Drove a BMW 3 wagon with a diesel (in Berlin and Poland) in Sept. Thought the engine was fine; am sure it is a great option for this vehicle. I drove 160 km/h and had cars blow by me. Personally (I live in Tennessee) would look at the 2.7 turbo here. Not sure this is the SUV of my next purchase though. Thanks for the review.
The outside looks ok to me, I like it in blue with the titanium grill. The tail lights seem to come off of a Subaru though, I'm not so sure about those.. The interior lets it down, though. Especially the centre panel and the multimedia system/gps. It's pricey though, in the Netherlands it starts at 56.000. It may be a bit bigger than for example the Tiguan (at least until the Tiguan XL gets here), but you pay a lot for that. And then there's no petrol option over here either. I have a feeling people are not going to line up to buy this one over here, unless a lot of people really value that extra bit of space.
Thanks Thomas, I always trust your reviews because I believe you do them from a genuine passion instead of the need to have followers and ratings. Very insightful - though I wonder if South Africa will have the Ford Edge given the scandal of burning Ford Kugas.
please do more measurements for sound: at 50 but also 120kph (and put them in perspective with competition). 'few dB' difference makes huge difference: every 3db audio pressure doubles. I don't see how the non-permanent AWD would help with the rear passenger tunnel, there's still a shaft (and exhaust) going there... It's just less prominent than a sedan because its interior sits higher.
It's crazy the difference between US and EU models! Sport in the US is a twin turbo v6 315hp 350 ft-lb torque monster. Sport in EU is a 210hp diesel. What's the torque of that model?
Thomas: I have driven all three versions of the new Edge and agree with your assessment of the cargo area cover. Those similar designs have been available since the vehicle debuted in the States in 2007. I also like your review because it highlights the differences in what you get versus us. One thing we don't get versus Europe and other markets is the diesel. I sometimes wish we had the option on the SE, SEL, and Titanum. The diesel in the Sport would be better. I have driven the EcoBoost 4 cylinder and came away unimpressed (not enough get up and go), the 3.5L V6 (They took 5 HP versus the 2011-2014 and it shows), and the 2.7L TT V6 (My favorite). However, I am surprised that you don't get the 2.7L EcoBoost that we get here for the sport and the Lincoln MKX. Speaking of the MKX, do you get that vehicle in Germany?
White interior actually does not look cheap. Soft high quality materials everywhere. Sound system was never good in Ford Edge, despite its sold as premium audio. New Bang&Olufsen system in the newest Edge is also really bad, despite 1600W power on paper and many speakers.
In Hungary, you only have Titanium and Sport. I would prefer the black grille of the sport, but I would take the Titanium, because of the smaller alloys. Of course nobody has enough money to buy this car here except for politicians, but that's another discussion for another day.
Another great detailed review. Autogefuhl is by far the best car reviewers on the internet! BUT on this review you missed the voice activation capability of the sync 2. Whilst anyone that has used Sync 2 will agree it is slow, the voice activation capability is unbelievable comprehensive and good. So much so that most functions you would do whilst driving can be done by voice which is much safer and means the lag of the screen is irrelevant. Please ensure you remain balanced and detailed to remain as the best car reviewer. Another aspect that needs / must be added to car reviews is the family perspective. This car is clearly going to be purchased by people that need the space for families. The test should include practical family aspects, carrying children, loading the car, parking in shopping car parks and load, etc. Cars need to be tested for there intended purpose and normal expected use and not the things they will never be used for such as off road driving (99% of SUV wont see long grass!) or going from 30 to 100! Please replace this nice but useless information with real world practical, relevant aspects.
I think if the US model was available in Europe, with the US price and only with the changes that must be made because of standards differences, it would have destroyed all the SUV's in this category available in Europe, even Japanese, and Korean, not just Europe Made SUV's. I mean it's like double the price.
Very interesting SUV Thomas, but in my opinion Tiguan even if it's smaller, has an off road package with high ground clearance and it is less expensive than Ford. For me, also I want to see how looks like and how practically is, the new SUV Skoda Kodiaq and how good it is in the off road conditions .
I always use to like Thomas reviews, cause you always get to the details! At this review, there is a lot of gaps in the interior assembly, visible on this video and we can see bad finishes at the back plastics of the dashboard! I think is a bad thing for a car of this price!
why were you not using voice commands to operate the sync system e.g navigation. No need to touch the screen, even to select cabin temperature. Your review did not really do the car justice.
The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain ... The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain ... The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain ... repeat please
Thomas what do you think about an electric car? I have to make a confess that I seriosly consider by one when i finish lease my audi in 2019. There is something extraordinary in these cars plus zero emissions, plus many things standard (tesla keyless entry etc.) Am Am I alone in this? :)
Immortan Joe they do come in right side steering I'm not sure when they will reach your country..the first ones are in Germany. as the euro edge gain popularity Ford will sell more right side steering versions....I have personally drove the euro edge...the name is different also starts with a V.. can't remember the name...the interior is slightly upscaled also
As always a great review. The car looks great from the outside. The black grille gives it presence in a domineering way that is quite refreshing. A deeper midnight blue would be a colour that I would choose. However white seems to be the new silver over many new colours to choose from. Then the grille would have to be chrome or a colour coded to match. The interior is a typical lost interest in the project ford interior design team. Have ford never looked at the SKODAS???? Even Kia!!!!. Come on Ford!!!! Do the homework and get SAVVY. Skoda makes you look weak. Sorry.
Mir gefällt der Wagen an sich sehr gut. Allerdings wirkt das Cockpit für den Preis, der aufgerufen wird, doch etwas billig. Insbesondere das Multimediasystem und die Bedienleiste wirken nicht wirklich integriert.
how come it is quiet when i can hear the road and wind noise very apparent in the video? also other reviewers comment that there are a lot of interior rattles, can you comment on that? thx
I think Ford has lost the plot when it comes to the pricing of this vehicle. Apart from the sound insulation, it really doesn't seem to offer anything to justify the price tag. The design, build quality, infotainment systems, all look like they belong on a car from 10 years ago. Ford should know their place, and just stick to cheap cars, that undercut the rivals. A product from Kia or Hyundai look like a considerably better purchase at this price point.
+Povilas Svedas I think maybe you're being a bit hard on Ford. The dash cluster is all new LCD, and Sync2 is being replaced shortly with Sync3. Take a look at South Korean exports like Kia or Hyundai - which are in exactly the same ball park price wise, but a whole let less in terms of build quality and materials - check out the volume of hard plastics in a Tucson or Santa Fe. Just my tuppence worth!.
Povilas Svedas Hi, have you driven either the Edge or Hyundai and Kia equivalent (Santa fe or Sorrento). I have a new ish Santa fe and whilst great, price wise is is not far off the Edge and i have driven the Edge. It is quieter, better quality materials, much better infotainment, handles better. Go drive one and you will see. You cant tell a car until you drive it.
Emission-free transportation technologies have been available for mass production for over 25 years, but without the needed infrastructure. Cars - affordable for the general public - with engines of about 1 litre fuel consumption, or cars with real water-using engines have been ready for production for over 2 decades now. These high-tech prototypes were successfully tested in countries like Canada, USA, Australia, Norway, England, Sweden, Finland, Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Germany, Poland, France, Switzerland, Czech Republic, Austria, Italy, Israel, China, India, South Korea and Japan. We should already be manufacturing 35-40 million emission-free vehicles annually, and H2O engine systems should have been producing energy instead of our fossil-based and nuclear power plants. Entire technological documentations of such technologies have vanished in the EU`s Institute for Innovation and Technology, and, according to the legislation in order, it is right to be so. The expense involved in the production of such technologies is half of that of the traditional engines, they weigh about 70% less, and they can provide a huge torque. Their working range can be several thousand miles, cars could weigh 200 kg less, and their price could be 3-4000 Euros less. Segments of nearly the entire car industry secretly have the prototypes and successful tests. At the present moment we are poisoning our environment just out of mere arrogance and greed. We live in a cheap and indecent world. I firmly claim that we simply shouldn`t lie to 7 billion people, and this is only the tip of the iceberg. This information is entirely true and I hold myself accountable for its validity. Sincerely, Istvan Gazso, inventor
The front reminds me of Hyundai's Santa Fey & the back, the Mitsubishi Outlander. Seems like Ford copied other cars for bits and pieces for this cars exterior..but not bad over all
I've test drove the X5. It's a very nice vehicle but after having an Infinity F35 and knowing that the BMW X5 cost much more for repairs Ford stance a chance to do well with this vehicle. When people buy cars they need to take into consideration repair cost. I do after my last two vehicle's
Back talights are styled after Ford Fusion with Dodge-like light strip in between. Shape of boot may be styled after Lexus RX, but it is more evident in recent Edge
why they don't make soft fake leather? good quality natural leather is soft with nice soft smooth touch feel, fake leather looks and feels like rough plastic, for example I've seen BMW 3 with natural and fake leather and natural leather feels much better
+Neo Hideo It might feel better but we never recommend this, even off-side of planet saving and ethical aspects, you sweat much more and stick to the seat in summer and in winter you are actually cold.
+Bandiet 2016 X1 looks really good, but is way smaller. And if pick engine power similar to Edge and you add some extras that are standard in Edge you will pay more.

Thank you for debuting this car. Something people in America forget is the amount of content that came from Ford of Europe.

An Explorer with a Diesel engine under 50k€ would be a no brainer IMHO....

you would have loved the sport model if you had the 2.7L V6
please do more measurements for sound: at 50 but also 120kph (and put them in perspective with competition). 'few dB' difference makes huge difference: every 3db audio pressure doubles.

The 2015 and 2016 Edge Sport in the US has a 2.7L twin turbo. It's silly they don't have that engine for the European version.

A nice masculine car. If I ever sell my f150, this would be good.

Welcome!!!
I think if the US model was available in Europe, with the US price and only with the changes that must be made because of standards differences, it would have destroyed all the SUV's in this category available in Europe, even Japanese, and Korean, not just Europe Made SUV's.
I mean it's like double the price.
car verry nice.
I'm in Australia and the car isn't even out yet, any idea when it comes down under?
Very interesting SUV Thomas, but in my opinion Tiguan even if it's smaller, has an off road package with high ground clearance and it is less expensive than Ford. For me, also I want to see how looks like and how practically is, the new SUV Skoda Kodiaq and how good it is in the off road conditions .

Man kann eigtl. nicht meckern, aber leider fehlt es dem Edge noch an Feinschliff im Detail.
the rear also reminds me of the Mitsubishi Outlander
what do you like best the new tiguan or the ford edge
+corals win Tiguan ... feels more refined. Although the Edge is kick-ass in Exterior
Oh I love this car. is that availabe for right steering wheel for another country like Indonesia & UK?
How much the price?
Immortan Joe they do come in right side steering I'm not sure when they will reach your country..the first ones are in Germany. as the euro edge gain popularity Ford will sell more right side steering versions....I have personally drove the euro edge...the name is different also starts with a V.. can't remember the name...the interior is slightly upscaled also
How are your side mirrors electric(Power Fold)? I can't find that option in the ford website, is that new for the 2017?
For European friends who wants to live like The Americans -- Everything is Big here in America.
Ford Eco Sport is not big, so...
That's why it's not sold in USA.
Compare this with new Edge...

Allerdings wirkt das Cockpit für den Preis, der aufgerufen wird, doch etwas billig.
Insbesondere das Multimediasystem und die Bedienleiste wirken nicht wirklich integriert.
how come it is quiet when i can hear the road and wind noise very apparent in the video?
also other reviewers comment that there are a lot of interior rattles, can you comment on that? thx
+Dan Ricciardo Felt really good sound wise, also colleagues agreed to that
I think Ford has lost the plot when it comes to the pricing of this vehicle. Apart from the sound insulation, it really doesn't seem to offer anything to justify the price tag. The design, build quality, infotainment systems, all look like they belong on a car from 10 years ago. Ford should know their place, and just stick to cheap cars, that undercut the rivals. A product from Kia or Hyundai look like a considerably better purchase at this price point.
+Povilas Svedas I think maybe you're being a bit hard on Ford. The dash cluster is all new LCD, and Sync2 is being replaced shortly with Sync3. Take a look at South Korean exports like Kia or Hyundai - which are in exactly the same ball park price wise, but a whole let less in terms of build quality and materials - check out the volume of hard plastics in a Tucson or Santa Fe. Just my tuppence worth!.
Povilas Svedas Hi, have you driven either the Edge or Hyundai and Kia equivalent (Santa fe or Sorrento). I have a new ish Santa fe and whilst great, price wise is is not far off the Edge and i have driven the Edge. It is quieter, better quality materials, much better infotainment, handles better. Go drive one and you will see. You cant tell a car until you drive it.
Emission-free transportation technologies have been available for mass production for over 25 years, but without the needed infrastructure. Cars - affordable for the general public - with engines of about 1 litre fuel consumption, or cars with real water-using engines have been ready for production for over 2 decades now. These high-tech prototypes were successfully tested in countries like Canada, USA, Australia, Norway, England, Sweden, Finland, Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Germany, Poland, France, Switzerland, Czech Republic, Austria, Italy, Israel, China, India, South Korea and Japan. We should already be manufacturing 35-40 million emission-free vehicles annually, and H2O engine systems should have been producing energy instead of our fossil-based and nuclear power plants. Entire technological documentations of such technologies have vanished in the EU`s Institute for Innovation and Technology, and, according to the legislation in order, it is right to be so. The expense involved in the production of such technologies is half of that of the traditional engines, they weigh about 70% less, and they can provide a huge torque. Their working range can be several thousand miles, cars could weigh 200 kg less, and their price could be 3-4000 Euros less. Segments of nearly the entire car industry secretly have the prototypes and successful tests. At the present moment we are poisoning our environment just out of mere arrogance and greed. We live in a cheap and indecent world. I firmly claim that we simply shouldn`t lie to 7 billion people, and this is only the tip of the iceberg. This information is entirely true and I hold myself accountable for its validity.

is it just me or does this seem like a blunt copy of Hyundai's Santa Fey with subaru like front lights...in terms of the inferior.
The front reminds me of Hyundai's Santa Fey & the back, the Mitsubishi Outlander. Seems like Ford copied other cars for bits and pieces for this cars exterior..but not bad over all
He's so German...i love it
He has Polish roots xd
Nice review but no thanks Ford, I buy a VW Tiguan, BMW X3 or a Volvo XC60 instead...
+WinkelHoof Thank you for appreciating our work:)
Good luck competing with the likes of X5, Ford. Am I the only one who sees Lexus at the back?
I've test drove the X5. It's a very nice vehicle but after having an Infinity F35 and knowing that the BMW X5 cost much more for repairs Ford stance a chance to do well with this vehicle.
When people buy cars they need to take into consideration repair cost. I do after my last two vehicle's
Back talights are styled after Ford Fusion with Dodge-like light strip in between. Shape of boot may be styled after Lexus RX, but it is more evident in recent Edge
this seems to be a car ford made with "inspiration" (copy) from other manufacturer's cars
It's mix of Fusion in the rear and Ford Pickup in the front. Don't see other manufacturers there
why they don't make soft fake leather? good quality natural leather is soft with nice soft smooth touch feel, fake leather looks and feels like rough plastic, for example I've seen BMW 3 with natural and fake leather and natural leather feels much better
+Neo Hideo It might feel better but we never recommend this, even off-side of planet saving and ethical aspects, you sweat much more and stick to the seat in summer and in winter you are actually cold.
***** I agree, I generally prefer fabric seats
Electric Spice...... If only it plugged in.
Thomas is too skiny. We want Holgar!
+Zadrigo Actually Holger will be soon in another review.
The Edge is a rather nice vehicle, but you guys are paying way too much for these.
+Antoine 40k euros is just ridiculous, i doubt that these will sell well
+Fredrik Melin it starts 56k euro's in my country lol fu that. I rather go for an BMW X1for less
+Bandiet 2016 X1 looks really good, but is way smaller. And if pick engine power similar to Edge and you add some extras that are standard in Edge you will pay more.
Lech G. true true.
