2016 Ford Edge History

Ford's history with SUVs has been a strong one, from the Bronco of years ago all the way through the Expedition, Escape, and more. The Edge provides all of the options and great styling that SUV owners have come to expect from the company, with some changes for the 2016 model year. Drivers of the 2016 Ford Edge can expect:

• A new Sync 3 optional infotainment system
• Variable-ratio steering standard on the Sport and as an option on the Titanium
• Standard all-wheel drive on the Sport model
• Keyless entry and ignition, along with a noise-reducing windshield

How It Drives

Anyone who has owned a Ford SUV in the past knows they generally hold their own or even excel at handling. The 2016 Edge is no exception. While the four-cylinder engine can be a little sluggish on acceleration and the transmission doesn't always react as fast as would be expected, the Edge with a V6 does remarkably well when it comes to getting off the starting line and making its way through traffic. Drivers can tell they're behind the wheel of an SUV, but they also don't feel like they're piloting a box down the highway. That gives them the opportunity to enjoy some sportiness and appreciate the ride.

Used 2016 Ford Edge Value

Ford is a leader when it comes to holding value as compared to other American makes, but may not hold its value quite as well as some of the foreign models. Despite that, anyone buying a 2016 Ford Edge can expect it to last for a long time. It will generally find itself in the middle to upper end of the pack where price is considered, allowing for a good resale value later down the road. Competitors include the Kia Sorento and Nissan Murano, both of which are popular choices and perform similarly when tested and during everyday driving.

Design & Performance

The Edge is sleek and has a sophisticated look, allowing for more buyers to appreciate all it has to offer even if an SUV would not have been their first choice. Midsize SUVs like the 2016 Ford Edge can be excellent choices for drivers who want the cargo space of an SUV but who are also looking for a vehicle they can maneuver through traffic and into their garage with ease. Buyers can expect:

• Several different engines and a six-speed automatic transmission
• Standard front-wheel drive and optional all-wheel drive
• A zero-to-60 time of 8.3 seconds on the 2.0T trim level
• A larger V6 option with 280 hp or a four-cylinder turbocharged engine producing 245 hp
• A towing capacity of up to 3,500 pounds when properly equipped

Powertrain & Engine

The powertrain and engine of the 2016 Ford Edge provide options, and that really helps the SUV appeal to buyers. With a number of different engine selections and trim levels, the Edge can give buyers plenty of great options for the power and gas mileage combination they are looking for. The four-cylinder engine is considered a little sluggish in some tests, but the turbocharged option will help avoid that concern. Additionally, choosing a V6 model will provide more horsepower without severely lowering the gas mileage that can be expected around town and on the open road.

Body Style & Interior Comfort

Ford is big on interior comfort and nice-looking body styles, and the Edge is no exception. Most of the surfaces are covered in soft-touch material, making them very comfortable and providing a cozy feeling that many SUVs just don't offer. When driving the 2016 Edge, you can expect:

• An infotainment system offered in the Sync 3 design
• Front bucket seats that cradle the driver and passenger
• Plenty of headroom and legroom for everyone in the vehicle
• Cargo space that is at the top of the class, both with the rear seats up and with them folded down

No matter what you are looking for in an SUV, the 2016 Ford Edge can deliver on drivability, value, style, and more. It's an excellent choice for Ford loyalists, and for those who are new to the brand when choosing Ford.
