With sensational off-road capabilities, out-of-this-world tech features, and a luxurious cabin that seats up to five, the 2022 Edge is clearly a leader among crossover SUVs. If its stylish, contoured design doesn’t catch your eye at first, then its surprising performance and first-class safety features certainly will. So if you’ve been searching for the perfect SUV for road trips and everyday commutes, here’s every reason why the 2022 Ford Edge fits the bill.

Versatile Performance

Although families love the Ford Edge, it offers plenty of strong performance for all types of drivers with two engines to choose from. The smaller engine, a 2.0L four-cylinder, holds its own with an exceptional 250 horsepower output. If that’s not enough, there’s the 2.7L V6, standard in ST models, which pushes out an astounding 335 horses with 380 pound-feet of torque.

To take you safely across snowy, wet, or muddy surfaces, the standard all-wheel-drive system is capable of providing traction to the wheels that need it most while doing this automatically and without any driver input.

Stylish Inside and Out

Not only is the Edge’s cabin extremely comfortable to sit in, but it’s also designed for convenience. Both the front-row and rear seating options offer a heating function, so you can feel toasty on chilly mornings while keeping tabs on the standard outside temperature display. Organizing cargo or moving about inside the cabin are both simplified with the Cargo Management System and the EasyFold seats in the second row.

While driving on highways, the active shutters behind the grille automatically open and close as needed to save you money on fuel by reducing drag. To open the available hands-free liftgate from the outside, all you have to do is swipe your foot just under the bumper, so loading cargo is now simpler than ever before.

Tech for All Occasions

Staying up to date with world affairs or your favorite podcasts on morning drives is easy with the SYNC 4A system and its SiriusXM satellite radio option. This system also delivers a hands-free solution to making phone calls while on the go and smartphone compatibility, so you can bring all of your favorite music with you and connect to it wirelessly with the integrated Bluetooth function.

To keep children and teens entertained, there’s an available DVD system with two headrest-integrated screens, as well as two 12-volt outlets and an available wireless charging pad, so they can keep their mobile devices or laptops plugged in or charged at all times.

Intuitive Safety Features

With Ford Co-Pilot360 on board, the Edge offers a suite of wide-ranging safety features. While driving over icy or wet surfaces, the AdvanceTrac system can detect when wheel slippage is occurring and can then adjust brake pressure to counter it.

If the Lane-Keeping System senses the vehicle leaving its lane without your say-so, it will first warn you about this before taking the reins and maneuvering the vehicle back to where it belongs. To visually scan the area around you to ensure it’s safe to exit the vehicle or move forward in parking lots, there’s also an available 180-degree camera, which provides a wide split-screen view inside the cabin.

With its impressive versatility, state-of-the-art technology, and a cabin designed with convenience in mind, the 2022 Edge offers something for everyone. Come see everything else this amazing SUV has to offer by stopping by Hutch Ford today.
