Arriving from across the pond with a big reputation in 2016, the Ford Edge and its lauded American design placed it as a new contender among large SUVs in the UK. In an increasingly competitive large-car market, the Ford Edge is stylish, but it also brings its fair share of practicality, space and power to the table. With the States rooted in its DNA, it’s an SUV with character and charm that offers a smooth drive at all speeds and is packed with exciting technology to elevate the driving experience.

Ford Edge updates and facelifts

The Mk1 Ford Edge originally launched in North America back in 2007 as a bespoke SUV and earned its reputation stateside as a reliable ride with plenty of room for the family. Fast forward to 2017 and the Mk2 launched in the UK with a streamlined aesthetic and modernised interior. The Mk2 upgrade of the Edge also included plenty of touch-ups to ensure it is agile enough to take on tight urban side streets and winding lanes as comfortably as open A roads and motorways. Investment in a stiffer suspension and sharper steering ensure that as a family SUV the Ford Edge can handle whatever British roads throw at it.

A minor facelift in 2019 saw additional aesthetic boosts; a reduced grille size is easier on the eye, and LED daytime running lamps bring a modern touch to the already contemporary exterior.

Available in four diesel engines and with four-wheel drive as standard, the Mk2 that took to the British roads has smoother handling than its Mk1 predecessor.

Practicality and style of a used Ford Edge

A used Ford Edge has spaciousness on its side. As a larger SUV, it can easily accommodate five adults while offering plenty of legroom for both driver and passengers.

Open the boot of the Ford Edge via its electronically controlled system, and you’ll be greeted by a huge 602 litres of available space. With plenty of room to fit a good amount of large luggage, this boot can hold more than any model of Audi, Mercedes or BMW, even outdoing the Honda CR-V’s 589 litres. Fold the back seats down, and the capacity increases to more than triple the size at 1,847 litres, which is enough to be genuinely practical for the big life moments like moving house or driving the kids to university. ISOFIX points in the rear come with the bonus of child seat mounting brackets, ensuring quick installation.

As a large SUV, most models of the Edge offer a towing capacity of 2,000kg, which is enough for a small caravan or a sizeable trailer.

Running costs

Despite its label as a large SUV, the Ford Edge is reasonable to run. It will sit within insurance groups 25 to 34 (out of 50) depending on the specification you choose. Annual road tax for a Ford Edge starts at as little as £180, up to £570 for the higher trim levels.

How a used Ford Edge drives

Used Ford Edges come in a range of diesel-powered engines, packing varied levels of power but with four-wheel drive as standard across the board. Two TDCi engines come with a choice of either manual or automatic transmission. The former reaches 177bhp, and while the latter achieves 207bhp, both return between 47.9 and 48.7mpg.

More powerful still is the EcoBlue automatic engine, which can produce 234bhp. Its counterpart, the EcoBlue manual, produces a respectable 147bhp, with both options returning 40.9mpg. The Ford Edge is on a par with premium competition like the Volkswagen Touareg, while easily beating off other competitors like the Nissan X-Trail and the Kia Sorento.

Features of a used Ford Edge

Interior

Inside the Edge you’ll find an attractive and practical interior that is typical of Ford’s manufacturing reputation: style and substance. It is roomy and comfortable, with the space to easily fit five adults without a squeeze. Headroom comes in at 1,016mm in the front of an entry-level Edge, with 998mm in the rear. Legroom is equally generous, with at least 1,029mm available in the front and 1,006mm in the rear.

The driving comfort of a larger SUV is often reliant on seat positioning, and Ford have made sure this is perfected in the Edge. Visibility is optimised by a high-set seat, so the peripheral view is ideal for all drivers. The look and feel of the inside as a whole is classy and understated.

Technology

The premium-looking cabin combines the neat tech of digital screens while retaining the practicality of some analogue controls and has voice recognition comes as standard across all trims.

This facelift introduced some tech upgrades. A neat rotary gearshift mechanism frees up space in the front of the cabin, making room for a handy wireless smartphone charging pad – with the instrument cluster losing its analogue controls and going fully digital.

Safety

The Ford Edge achieved a five-star safety rating by Euro NCAP when it launched in the UK in 2016. An adult occupant safety rating of 85% further demonstrates its credentials, along with a 76% child occupant safety rating. Its entry-level trim offered a host of safety features that shored up its reputation, including a lane-keeping aid and a rear-view camera to assist with parking. A facelift in 2019 brought further safety benefits that supplemented its already impressive array of features, including Stop & Go enhancement on Active Cruise Control, Lane Centring, and Evasive Steering Assist.

Trims available on a used Ford Edge

Ford Edge Zetec

Despite its tag as the entry-level option for used Ford Edge buyers, the Zetec comes with a host of features that ensure its appeal, including dual-zone climate control and a large touchscreen infotainment centre activated by voice control. Other features include electric folding mirrors, 19-inch alloy wheels and an automatic braking system, which further enhance the streetwise character of this trim.

Ford Edge Titanium

On top of the excellent host of standard Zetec features, the mid-entry Titanium trim offers keyless access, while the boot lid can be opened by pressing a lever underneath the bumper with your foot – perfect when carrying heavy luggage without a spare hand. This trim also has parking sensors at both the front and rear, as well as heated seats for the colder seasons, and sat nav is included.

Ford Edge Sport

The top-of-the-range Edge trim bumps up the alloy size to 20 inches. With the addition of Sport suspension and adaptive steering, cornering and traction – a great bonus for urban drivers. The Sport also improves the quality of the sat nav with the addition of a high-tech Sony system.
