Ford Edge (2016-2020) Pros and Cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Comfortable for long-distance driving | Not as sharp to drive as most Fords |
| Very spacious cabin and boot | Earlier engines are less efficient than later units |
| Lots of kit as standard | Some reliability issues with dual-mass flywheels |
Quick Summary
The Ford Edge (2016-2020) was Ford's flagship SUV, originally intended for the North American market but brought to Europe to capitalise on the SUV boom. Despite being physically larger than premium rivals like the Volvo XC60 and Audi Q5, it offered a big, well-equipped, and comfortable family SUV experience with significant value for money. It struggled for sales in the UK market and was ultimately discontinued in 2019, though new examples were available into 2020.
This imposing vehicle translates its vast exterior into a cavernous interior, boasting exceptional space for passengers and a generous 602-litre boot (expanding to 1,688 litres with seats folded). Powered exclusively by 2.0-litre diesel engines, it prioritises refinement and comfort over agility, excelling as a smooth, quiet long-distance cruiser. While not dynamically sharp, it came with a high level of standard equipment, including the SYNC3 infotainment system, and offers affordable servicing, though it experienced rapid depreciation as a used car.
Best for: Families needing a spacious, well-equipped, and comfortable SUV; buyers seeking good value for money; long-distance drivers.
Not ideal for: Buyers prioritising premium badge appeal or the finest interior materials; those seeking dynamic handling or off-road capability; those concerned about rapid depreciation.

| Volkswagen Touareg | 4/5 | 4.1/5 | 31.8% | 4.1/5 |
The Verdict
You should buy the Edge if: You need a spacious, well-equipped, and comfortable family SUV; you primarily drive long distances; or you're looking for significant value for money in the used market.
Consider alternatives if: You prioritise dynamic driving, premium badge appeal, or desire better off-road capability; or you are concerned about rapid depreciation.
Competitive Position: The Ford Edge (2016-2020) offers an impressive amount of space, comfort, and standard equipment for its price, positioning it as a strong value proposition in the used large SUV market. While it may lack the dynamic flair of some Fords or the premium cachet of German rivals, its refinement, practicality, and long-distance cruising ability make it a sensible choice for families, provided buyers are aware of its rapid depreciation.

4.6 Overall rating
(12 reviews)Having run a 2016 Edge Titanium 2.0 auto with Luxury Pack (full leather, panoramic roof, heated/cooled seats, etc.,) for over 5 1/2 years, I wanted to update the model knowing that Ford stopped selling them in the U.K in 2019. The ST-Line model purchased is very similarly specified to the Titanium which means a high level - with additional ‘bells and whistles’ such as blind spot indicators, B&O sound system, front camera (in addition to rear reversing camera), different transmission, etc, etc; in other words, a lot of car for your money and comparable with cars carrying a premium badge. Styling has been upgraded with some real changes (improvements) to body styling with a grea5 paint finish. The Edge is a large car but handles well and relatively economical. I suspect the Eco-blue engine may not be as frugal as the ‘old’ TDi but it’s better for the environment. This model is still available in the U.S. -what a pity they’re not bringing them over here.
Great car. Lovely to drive with plenty of gadgets.
The Ford Edge, to be honest is very well equipped , heated seats front and rear for example. My only slight misgiving is that only a few of the cars I have seen on ads or for real have a front camera as well as a back one which is standard. Leather seats are a must, The info screen. Is great and the sound system sounds perfect. Personally I really love this car and it’s very rare you here me say that.
It is suitable for new drivers because it is easily access to urban areas and parks without any hesitation and the fuel consumption is fair as well. Three doors are crucial for kids travelling.
The vehicle is well equipped. Leather seats as standard. Good size info screen. Dash is great with sign id and stay in lane as well and park assist . As it is a ford then parts are cheaper and therefore costs to maintain are lower. My only slight reservation is the front of the car is wider than some others. The equivalents are Volkswagen Tiguan or discovery sport or Nissan extrail.
