2015 Ford Edge
We went down to Scottsdale Arizona to test drive the brand new Ford Edge. Completely remodeled for 2015 this vehicle has a lot of interesting new features but the most impressive thing to me was the drive and handling. A large family SUV from Ford suddenly got a huge boost in handling and driving capabilities. Ford engineers have been working on making the all new Ford Edge better for well over a decade and the result was worth the wait.
Ford have had 4 years of record sales for the Ford Edge. This is a vehicle that help create the segment now known as a CUV, or Crossover Utility Vehicle; and has maintained its status as #1 in the segment for some time. Crossover vehicles will make up 29% of vehicles sold in the US in 2020 a growth of 4%. 50% of those buyers are women and 60% will keep coming back to the brand for new cars year after year after year.
The Ford Edge has some startling technology in it obstacle avoidacne systems. Vehicle assed parking systems and part out systems that will help get you out of a parking place. The Ford Edge has 3 engine choices, up to 315HP and incorporates Ford’s EcoBoost Technologies. We noticed when looking at the 0-60 times that the Ford Edge on paper loked faster than a BMW X5. So you know we had to put it to the test. The Ford Edge beat the X5 with .1 seconds to spare, and for about $15,000 less that is a very impressive buy.
Pretty immersive vehicle, starting price for the 2015 Ford Edge is just under $29,000 fully loaded the vehicle could be way up into the 30’s and even the $40,000 dollar range and they should be in dealerships shortly.
