The 2011 Ford Edge was expected to be released some time in June, but the Ford website release date still says “Coming Summer 2010”, so we still do not know. Looking at the design of this Range Rover wannabe it does not look that different to the current version – that’s until you look under the hood and the interior.
The Car Connection points out that the outside is more aggressive, but still offers a sensible a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder EcoBoost engine, which his expected to deliver 27MPG. There are two larger engines, a 3.5-liter V-6 and a 3.7-liter V-6.

The base price for the 2011 Ford Edge is just over $27,000 and increases to $35,000. The interior of the outgoing model was considered cheap.  Thankfully the Blue Oval has realized this and has now made necessary improvements to give it a more up market look and feel.

When Ford release the new 2011 Edge it will be in direct competition with the Acura MDX, Audi Q5 and the Lexus RX350. Although Left Lane News reports that Ford has a quieter model.

Every since its introduction to the automotive industry, the Ford Edge has been a success for Ford Iowa dealers. Lately car-buyers have fallen in love with the whole “crossover utility vehicle” (CUV) movement. The Ford Edge encompasses SUV functionality, but drives like your typical sedan. Dahl Ford, located at 1310 East Kimberly Road, is your number one source in Iowa for the all-new Ford Edge.

The Ford Edge is commended for its safety ratings, unique-style, comfortable cabin, and solid performance. Car and Driver goes on the record to say that “The Edge is a mid-size five-seat crossover SUV that offers a comfortable interior and car-like driving experience“. In 2007, Ford’s second attempt at a crossover vehicle was named one AAA and Parents magazine’s “Best Cars for Families”.

Ford’s CUV, comes in four different trims: the base SE model, the mid-grade SEL model, the upscale Limited model, and the Sport (new for 2009). The Edge Sport comes with a body-kit, sport-tuned suspension, and the option for 22-inch polished aluminum rims. The suspension in the Ford Edge provides the perfect balance for car-buyers. It allows for a smooth ride as it is equipped to absorb the impact of bumps in the road, but still has the ability to maintain control with sudden changes of direction.

Earlier we mentioned that the Ford Edge won AAA’s “Best Cars for Families” in 2007; however, Ford remains determined to improve on its safety features. Ford has introduced Advance Trac with Roll Stability Control and anti-lock brake system in addition to MyKey which gives parents the ability to set options on stereo volume and vehicle speed. The additions of Ford’s new safety features make the Ford Edge a Top Safety Pick for 2009.
