The rear seats are also fairly comfortable, however, fitting three adults in the rear is a bit tough. You can still control the climate control system from the center stack and various functions of the sound system via the controls on the steering wheel.īeyond this, front passengers are gen to enjoy ten-way adjustable seats that are fairly sporty and supportive. The good news here is that Ford didn’t integrate all of the interior controls into the interface. If it looks like the display you saw in the Ford Mach-E, then you’re seeing things properly – it is, in fact, the very same screen from the Mach-E. And that’s the main highlight of the Edge ST’s interior – the new portrait-oriented, 12.1-inch touchscreen interface. The steering tuning is set up for comfort, too, being lightly weighted and featuring a dead spot on center before tightening up as more angle is dialed in.Fortunately, the interior of the Edge ST has been thoroughly updated, so that old, dated, GM-like design of the center stack is now a thing of the past. "Ride quality is well-damped, softening the blow from the few road imperfections I come across on Utah roads.Although the Edge felt a tad floaty in some corners, the vehicle was generally more composed than others in the midsize crossover class and the suspension was plenty absorbent over gravelly terrain and road bumps." - New York Daily News (2019) "The Ford Edge boasts a rather firm ride, but that doesn’t mean it’s an uncomfortable one.… The suspension and body dampen out moderate-size bumps in the road pretty well, but smaller bumps and imperfect pavement actually make the Edge feel a little bouncy." - Edmunds "Consistently agreeable steering, handling and braking give the Edge good manners, even if it won't quicken your pulse.Front-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is optional.

"The powertrain is great, delivering smooth, low-end torque off the line.This tendency, coupled with a slow-to-respond gas pedal, means the Edge can occasionally take a beat to sort itself out." - Edmunds … The transmission shifts smoothly, though somewhat excessively at times. Its responses are heavily damped, but the thrust it ultimately delivers is generally satisfactory. At freeway speeds, the acceleration could be better.
