New Ford Edge
Ford UK announced pricing and range
details of their SUV flagship, the all-new Edge.
The new Ford Edge will be available with
a 2.0-litre TDCi engine under the bonnet, offering two different power outputs,
180 PS and 210 PS. The latter makes its power thanks to its twin
turbochargers and is available only with a six-speed PowerShift automatic
gearbox.
The base 180 PS model is offered only
with a manual six-speed gearbox. Both powertrains are offering a combined fuel
economy of 48.7 mpg UK and 149 g/km of CO2 emissions.
The new Edge comes equipped with Adaptive Steering, Front Wide View Camera,
Pre-Collision Assist with Pedestrian Detection, DAB radio with a SYNC 2
connectivity system among others.
The acoustic windscreen glass and the
laminated glass on both the front doors help in minimising wind noise while the
Active Noise Control technology that comes as standard to all models detects
unwanted engine noise and cancels it with opposing sound waves through the
sound system.
The new Edge are expected to arrive in
Ford’s dealerships this summer, with prices starting at £ 29,995 for the 180 PS
Zetec model and all the way up to £ 36,745 for the range-topping 210 PS Sport
auto model.
