I like the update, but in reality, why didn’t Ford give us an all-new Edge this year? Other than GM, tell me who drags a model on for 8+ years nowadays?.Visually, Ford replaced the three-bar front grille with a similar grille to the larger Ford Explorer.The 2019 Edge receives a mid-cycle facelift in 2019 year, meaning don’t expect a new one until 2023 at the earliest!.8-Speed Automatic Transmission with paddle shift.0L Twin-Scroll EcoBoost engine producing 245 hp and 275 lb.-ft.Four available models: SE, SEL, Titanium and ST.Large-ish SUV (Sport Utility Vehicle) – this one is more CUV – Crossover Utility Vehicle.I’ve driven both and to be honest I didn’t feel they lacked anything in the way of power by going with a smaller, more fuel-efficient engine. The big question is – does a 4-banger work in a vehicle this big?! Well Ford aren’t alone in this category – Land Rover do the same thing with the Discovery Sport and Kia likewise with the Sorento. This time we’ll be driving the 4-cylinder 2.0 turbocharged Ecoboost engine that is now standard across the range – except for the ST version (the only model that gives you the V6 if you just have to have one). Last time out I drove the Sport version with a 2.7L Ecoboost V6. Having driven all of the Edge models to date, I thought it was time to give the latest version a drive – after all, it’s been 3+ years since I last drove one (2016) – is it better? It’s been “upgraded” after receiving a mid-cycle facelift for 2019 (2 nd gen began in 2015).
