Ford EDGE Parts | 2019 - 2022 | EcoBlue #A0PP2645K
Ford Edge 2019-2021 has been a staple for the company and for people who have been driving SUVs for a long time. Ford produces both a smaller and a larger SUV that essentially look the same, but the Edge has a lot of followers due to its mid-size appeal. It is a good choice for families and also works well for business. When you need to work on the Ford Explorer, make sure you take the time to find the right mechanic, the right body shop, and the right maintenance company. They should all use high-quality parts and be proud of their services. If they dont and arent, its time to go elsewhere. Your Edge deserves everything you can offer it, and cheap, low-quality parts are not a good choice for how they look or perform. For 2021, the Edge received a facelift in an attempt to push it up and compete with premium rivals such as the Audi Q5. This reduced the range to leave only the top trims and brought a subtly updated style as well as a new, more powerful diesel engine. There is also a lower power option, but those who want to fuel entirely with gasoline or hybrid energy will have to look elsewhere, as these options are not currently available. Regardless of the power you select, you get a standard eight-speed automatic transmission. In the entry-level 148 HP Titanium model, it drives the front wheels, while the 235 HP ST-Line and Vignale benefit from four-wheel drive. Despite the power difference, each version can tow a braked trailer weighing up to 2000 kg.

The range starts with a 2.0-liter diesel (2.0 EcoBlue 150) that we have yet to try. On paper, its 0-62 km/h time of 11.2 seconds is much slower than the class average, considering that an entry-level diesel engine Audi Q5 or Volvo XC60 2.0-liter will get you there about three seconds faster. We suggest that the 2.0-liter diesel engine with 235 HP (2.0 EcoBlue 238) would be the wiser choice for anyone needing a bit of oomph for towing or even to make decent progress with a fully loaded car. It still doesnt match the pace of the Q5 and XC60, but it offers similar launches to the Peugeot 5008 2.0 BlueHDi 180. And, with a good spread of mid-range torque, it pulls you along in a stress-free manner, even if the ultimate performance is adequate at best. Both engines use an eight-speed automatic transmission. It doesnt respond particularly well when you ask for overtaking power and hesitates noticeably between first and second gear when youre heavy on the accelerator. This indecisive nature makes it prone to noise at slow speeds and it spins awkwardly between first and reverse when making parking changes at the end of the journey. However, everything comes together when traveling at speed and mainly using higher gears. Things have moved at a rapid pace in this class when it comes to refinement. Quiet and smooth progress is no longer the preserve of expensive premium models; while the Q5 is exceptionally refined in most respects, the significantly less expensive Peugeot 5008 and Citroën C5 Aircross are quite restful. Unfortunately, the Edge feels a bit behind the times. There is a lot of road noise and, if you have the panoramic roof fitted, a lot of wind noise too. Additionally, despite noise-canceling technology being standard, the diesel engines sound noisy and send some vibrations through the controls, especially around 1500 rpm. Given the automatic transmissions tendency to shift to the highest possible gear, its something youll notice frequently. The Edge is not particularly comfortable on the standard 20-inch alloy wheels of the ST-Line and Vignale trims. It can flow easily over long-wave bumps and dips, especially at higher speeds, but as soon as the surface degrades to include sharper intrusions, it starts to jolt. On very undulating surfaces, you can also feel a shimmering road through the body. Its quite bad in the Vignale, but the ST-Line is stiffer. Previous experience tells us that smaller 19-inch wheels (fitted only on the entry-level Titanium trim) offer an improvement, but the Q5 on air suspension is much better resolved, as is the 5008 - except when 20-inch wheels are fitted. The Edge doesnt offer class-leading handling either. It feels heavy and is slower to change direction in tight corners than the Mazda CX-5, and the steering isnt as precise or progressively weighted as in something like the Q5. However, at least the ST-Line models with their sport suspension dont lean when you start to push really hard, and there is a good reserve of grip available. Stick to the comfort suspension and youll notice a bit more roll, although the car never feels too heavy. If you need to tow a caravan, the Edge can carry up to 2000 kg, which is decent but not exceptional. Interior Ford Edge 2020 EcoBlue The Edge has that high seating position that SUV buyers like. However, it doesnt offer you the best visibility; the windshield pillars are thick at their base and the huge rear pillars wrap around to reduce the width of the rear screen. So, its easy to be relieved that front and rear parking sensors and a rearview camera are standard across the range. LED headlights are also standard; these are upgraded to adaptive units on the Vignale trim. With so much adjustment on offer, its hard to imagine anyone finding fault with the Edges driving position. The steering wheel offers plenty of movement for height and reach, while the seat has 10-way electric adjustment, including four-way adjustable lumbar support. Dashboard buttons are easy to reach, but some are quite small and require more than just a quick glance to decipher; this can be distracting when driving. There is also a dizzying array of controls on the standard multifunction steering wheel and a multitude of menus on the 12.3in digital instrument display. Even so, its not as configurable or as easy to read as Audis Virtual Cockpit, available in the Q5. The standard infotainment system is no simpler. The image on the 8.0in touchscreen is quite clear, but many of the icons are small, and some of the menus are confusing. Its no worse than the Peugeot 5008s infotainment system, but its not as good as the Mazda CX-5s and is far from the best, such as the BMW X3 iDrive or Audi Q5. However, you do get plenty of features, including sat-nav, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto, smartphone mirroring on all versions, while the ST-Line and Vignale models feature a 1000-watt B&O sound system with 12 speakers. Ford Edge Trunk There is plenty of legroom in the front of the Edge and headroom too, if you avoid the optional panoramic glass sunroof that lowers the ceiling enough to make six-footers feel a bit cramped for space. Things are similar in the rear seats, which generally have a good level (if not Kia Sorento level) of leg and headroom, but adding a panoramic roof limits the latter. Center passengers will certainly appreciate the extremely low transmission tunnel that makes getting in and out easier. However, there are no issues with interior storage; the glovebox is large enough to take bulky items, the central cubby under the front armrest is deep, and there are a few trays and cubbies dotted around for odds and drinks. If you need seven seats, you can immediately cross the Edge off your list: its only a five-seater. Its also not particularly clever in terms of seat flexibility; the rear bench reclines and is split 60/40, but it doesnt slide forward and backward to increase boot or legroom as needed. Most rivals offer 40/20/40 splits, while the 5008 and C5 Aircross have three equally sized rear seats that can be folded independently. The Edges boot is a decent size and will certainly take a large pram or a few large suitcases before you have to give up the rear bench. Even so, its still not as impressive as the generous boot of the 5008, let alone true giants like the Kia Sorento.
