The 2007 Ford Edge is a midsize crossover SUV. It is a 4-door, 5-passenger sport-utility, available in 6 trims, ranging from the SE FWD to the SEL Plus AWD. The Edge features unibody construction rather than a traditional SUV’s body-on-frame arrangement, which provides it with a more rigid structure, and thus gives it better handling and ride.
The base SE is equipped with 17-inch alloy wheels, automatic headlights, air-conditioning, a four-speaker CD stereo, and full power accessories. The Edge SEL provides body-color door handles and mirrors, a leather-wrapped steering wheel; a power driver seat, a trip computer and an auto-dimming rearview mirror. The SEL Plus adds heated outside mirrors, a power passenger seat that folds flat, a quick-release mechanism for the folding rear seats and dual-zone automatic climate control. The base SE starts at a highly competitive $25,995.
The Edge features a 3.5-liter V6 engine. Displacing 3496cc, the V6 makes 265 horsepower and 250 pound-feet of torque. It is coupled with a new six-speed automatic transmission that’s a shared design between General Motors and Ford.
The Edge is only available with five seats. The finish is quite nice, and there is a whole lot of storage space. With the 60/40 rear bench folded flat and cushions that slide forward, it provides a truly horizontal load surface. The seats can be folded manually or via an available power mechanism.
If you want a pleasing, well-rounded tall station wagon, the Edge is just the car for your needs. Overall, it is a good vehicle that is worth your money.
