Available SEL Sport Appearance Package

The first new package available for you to choose on the 2018 Edge is the available SEL Sport Appearance package. With this, you get an added darkened look for your 2018 Edge. Everything from your 19-inch painted aluminium wheels, skid plates, grille surround, rear spoiler, and exterior mirror caps come updated with a quiet and smooth gray-toned look. It also adds black accents to your Edge on the headlamps, black window molding, and gray cloth seating surfaces. A sleek, minimalist style has never looked this good on an SUV, until now.

Safe and Smart Package

Second among the all-new packages available for the 2018 Edge, the Safe and Smart package gives you almost every single advanced safety feature Ford offers for its vehicles. Everything from its adaptive cruise control and forward collision warning, to its automatic high beams and blind-spot monitoring system. Available for the SEL, Titanium, and Sport trims, you can drive with confidence knowing you have enough peace of mind to get to your destination safely.

More Engine Options

As if there weren’t enough customization options to choose from, the 2018 Edge also offers up to three different engine options. Standard across the SE, SEL, and Titanium trims, the Twin-SCroll 2.0 EcoBoost engine features an integrated exhaust manifold and high-pressure direct injection fuel system to manage your fuel usage and push out 245 hp. Available for you to upgrade, the 3.5L Ti-VCT V6 engine optimizes performance across all low, mid, and high ranges of the power band to match its driving conditions while giving 280 hp and 250 lb-ft worth of torque. Finally, the Sport trim comes standard with an exclusive 2.7L EcoBoost engine. This incredible engine provides overwhelming power for the 2018 Edge, pushing out 315 horsepower and 350 lb-ft worth of torque.
