Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The entire Edge lineup receives new wheel designs, and two new gray colors join the palette. All models also receive acoustic-laminated glass on the front side windows for extra sound deadening as well as standard rear parking sensors. The infotainment system gets upgraded to the Sync 4 interface and gains a 12-inch display. The top-level ST model adds a six-way power-adjustable passenger's seat and a heated steering wheel as standard.

Pros
Accommodating interior, smooth and quiet ride, well-equipped even at the base level.

Cons
Cabin fit-and-finish needs polish, nondescript handling, rival SUVs look and feel fresher.
