The 2022 Edge is a unique find among crossover SUVs, as it perfectly balances incredible performance options with excellent fuel economy while also providing drivers with a comfortable and quiet cabin. In addition to having sound-insulated glass on both front side windows, it also offers many of today’s latest tech features to both entertain and protect you and your passengers. If you haven’t driven the versatile 2022 Ford Edge yet, here are some of its main highlights.
Strong Performance
The 2022 Edge’s two engine options, a 2.0L I4 and a 2.7L V6,
are both impressively powerful. The 2.0L sports 250 horsepower and up to 280
pound-feet of torque, enough for quick takeoffs and excellent performance. For
even more pep, the 2.7L delivers 335 horses and 380 pound-feet of torque.
As for shifting, the I4 engine is paired with an eight-speed automatic
transmission, while the V6 comes mated to a seven-speed automatic. When fully
equipped, this SUV also has the strength to tow up to 3,500 pounds, so you can
always be ready for road trips with a trailer in tow.
A Stylish Design
The edition of the Edge is a modern and sleek-looking
vehicle that has a bold, dynamic grille in the front, premium 20-inch
black-painted wheels, and an optional power liftgate with hands-free access in
the back.
Inside the cabin, available features such as the Second Row EasyFold Seat and
10-way power driver’s seat make climbing into the vehicle and getting
comfortable a lot easier. Instead of shifting forward or backward as you would
with traditional gear shifters, the Edge’s chic rotary gear shift dial allows
you to shift gears with a circular motion.
Exciting Technology
As for its tech features, the Edge’s SYNC 4A system puts
navigation instructions, entertainment apps, smartphone connectivity, and
satellite radio stations at your fingertips. Also, because this system can
access cloud-based connections, you can download software updates as soon as
they’re available, without the need for dealer servicing.
There’s also a standard rearview camera and the Ford+Alexa feature, which
allows you to monitor your home while away and perform other functions by
remotely connecting to your smart-home devices.
Smart Safety Features
Many advanced safety features are offered with the 2022 Edge as well, including Pre-Collision Assist, Lane-Keeping System, and BLIS, all of which use radar sensors to detect and warn you about potentially dangerous driving conditions. For safety on trails, not only does the available 180-degree camera system offer a split-view projection on your screen, but it also has a self-washing function, so you’ll never have to exit the vehicle to clean it.
Then there’s the Enhanced Active Park Assist System, which makes parallel and perpendicular parking easier for you by controlling steering when parking while you control all of the vehicle’s other functions.
With its capable performance options, sophisticated tech features, and stylish design, the 2022 Edge is a clear people-pleaser, as it aims to provide features that everyone can love. To test drive this sophisticated Ford SUV, contact us today or stop in to see us at Crain Ford of Jacksonville.
