Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The 2019 Ford Edge doubles down on safety technology, and on uprated handling with a new ST model.

Pros
Quick steering
Cabin’s muted details
Wide range of engines
Composed ride on small-tire models

Cons
Base seats need better bolsters
Real-world fuel economy is TBD
Very firm ride may strike some as stiff
Cabin’s aging more quickly than the sheet metal

The 2019 Ford Edge ranked #13 in Midsize SUVs. Currently the Ford Edge has a score of 8.2 out of 10 which is based on our evaluation of 26 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.

Pros
Two potent engine options
Spacious cabin
Intuitive infotainment system

Cons
Body leans around corners
Dated infotainment graphics

The 2019 Ford Edge could be a great choice if you're looking for a crossover SUV that's a little nicer than the norm but won't bust your budget. You'd definitely like the way the Edge drives. It's tight and controlled, much like a sedan. Then there's its interior space. While the Edge doesn't have a third row, it does have a larger cargo area and a roomier second row when compared with other crossovers.Refreshed front and rear styling.Eight-speed automatic with rotary shifter.More standard features, including safety and driver assist functions.

Pros
Smooth and comfortable ride quality
Plenty of space for passengers and luggage
Fuel-efficient and performance-oriented engines

Cons
Interior design and control layout are dated and bland
Outward visibility hampered by thick roof pillars and blind spots

Pros
Fantastic utility
Comfortable ride
Great safety tech
Thrifty for a crossover
Good value

Cons
Sun Belters might want FWD
Manual and turbo gone
Sport trim about looks only
Dowdy styling

By:

Completely redesigned for 2019
More powerful 2.5-liter flat four-cylinder engine
Subaru's EyeSight system is standard on all models
Increased passenger and cargo space
2.0-liter turbocharged engine has been discontinued

Pros
Standard all-wheel drive
A full complement of driver assists is standard equipment
Off-road ability with better-than-average ground clearance
Generous cargo capacity

Cons
Handling isn't as composed as it is in some competitors
CVT automatic feels less responsive than a conventional automatic
Modest tow rating limits overall utility
Only available engine is underpowered

By: 
edmunds.com

It looks visually similar to the last model, so has enough changed to entice buyers into the all-new Subaru Forester?

Pros
Loaded with safety and convenience features
Ultra-wide passenger door opening aperture
Full-time all-wheel drive system
Fuel efficient four-cylinder petrol engine

Cons
Archaic three-year warranty
12,500km service intervals
Higher starting price
