Used 2020 Ford Edge SEL 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A) Consumer Reviews
Just about everything you could want...But
We purchased the SEL model and the interior is very luxurious. The car is the most quiet car we have ever owned and we have owned a few luxury cars. I call it a car as it drives and rides more like a car than an SUV which is exactly what we wanted. But when you need an SUV it has All wheel drive and with the backs seats folded down and you have the most cargo area of any SUV in its class and It handles beautifully. Two things I miss on the SEL model are the ambient lighting which lights the floor, the door handles,the cup holders and tray under the consul. it also doesn't have a memory seat for the driver which would be very nice since it has a 10 way power adjustment. It would nice to simply get into the car and oush a button to go back to your seat position. We found that only the Titanium models had these two options.

WE LOVE THIS CAR
second edge we have purchased - got great price , the ride is great , quiet , engine though 4 cylinder has good pick up even out of sport mode ,mileage seems pretty good , very comfortable seats, roomy , safety features are great , can't speak to durability since we only have had it a week but the tech features are wonderful and easy to use . Interior seems more upscale than some competitors the shift knob takes a little getting used to but I have not had any problems using it unlike another reviewer lots of storage space including areas under the rear floor . great car so far

Almost
If you've come from European SUVs (BMW, Mercedes, Audi) you are likely to be a little underwhelmed by the "soft" handling and ride. That said, if you want a fuel efficient everyday hauler, the 2020 Edge will probably work fine for you. The SEL has most everything you need but the seats (while comfortable) could use more side bolster. Lots of room in the backseat for passengers and ample cargo. The protection package came with all weather floor mats for front and back seats but disappointed that I had to purchase a rear cargo mat after market. Fit and finish could be better as I have had dirt/salt find its way through the lower door panels and slightly more road noise than I expected. Infotainment is fairly easy to use and best just to set the temp control to auto instead of trying to find all the touch screen controls for air flow and temp. Have had many SUVs in the past 30 years, first Ford. I wanted to buy locally and looked at Acadia, Traverse, Equinox, Terrain,and redesigned Escape ... no European dealers within hundreds of miles so not a lot of choices. The Edge seemed to have everything I needed and could have found a much better deal on remaining 2019's if I were willing to drive to another dealer out of town. Highlights are large cargo area, smooth transmission and performance from Eco-boost, good gas mileage (30mpg hwy so far), good traction on ice and snow (Pirelli all season tires) and excellent headlights. Low points are some fit and finish issues, bland styling compared to other mid-size SUVs, very annoying snow/ice collection in wheel wells, and more road noise than expected. The Edmunds review is pretty spot on for this vehicle.

Beautiful car with a JUNK engine
I’m full of regret from buying a ford. Brand new 2020 edge has transmission issues that no one will acknowledge or admit to. Main issue is 0-35mph. It jerks and hesitates between gears. Especially around slow wide turns. It’s scary and very disappointing after paying so much for a car. It’s a bit noisy until it hits 40mph. Once you get that fast it drives fine. Their solution- “drive it hard”...nice smh. Interior is nice but what good is that when it drives like a go cart. I’ll never buy a ford again. The manufacturer could care less. I will trade it in ASAP
Back to Ford!
Well, we're back to Ford again. We've owned a Bronco (our start with Ford) three Expeditions, two Explorers, a T-Bird (older version), a Mustang, a Focus, a Fusion, a F150 Sport 4X4 (my husband's current truck), a Taurus SHO (I'm sorry I ever sold that one) and now . . . an Edge. Despite all the cars I researched, I ended up with a Ford. As with most Ford, products, we just get more for our money and great quality and customer service. We have never had issues with our Fords and I have no complaints about the service I've received from any Ford Dealership. I just came from a Chevy Volt (also excellent customer service). Interesting concept, and I saved a ton on gas, but just too small. I don't need anything as big as my husband's F150 or a third-row seat SUV. I really like the Edge. I purchased a 2020 SEL just a week ago. Maybe too early for a review, but I really do like it. It handles well, and it has more bells and whistles than I really need - but I still like them. Nice having AWD again, as we live in the mountains. Plenty of pickup. I agree with some of the reviews I've read, the transmission is a little hesitant at take-off, but not a deal breaker. I like the power lift gate, power button to flatten the back seats, remote start, blind spot monitoring/lane assist, etc. and the auto brights were a nice surprise. It's the perfect size for me. I prefer the uncomplicated, simple dash of Ford vehicles. Lots of cargo space, even without the back seats down, and my 7-year old granddaughter, who despised getting into the Volt as she got taller, loves the space. The seats are very well padded, comfortable and high quality. The Edge isn't huge, but so much bigger and more practical than the Volt. I put 500 miles per week on a car and trade often. Okay, I'm going to miss only putting gas in my car once every two weeks or so - the Volt was a real gas saver and a great car, but I think I'm really going to enjoy the Edge! 03/22 Update - Still love the Edge. I'm disappointed that the auto lift gate doesn't ever work. I can't seem to get my foot in the right spot. I've heard that complaint about other brands as well. Very happy with my purchase. Of course, now that gas has gone up, it's a punch in the gut every time I fill up, but you can't have everything. Averaging about 25 MPG, which isn't bad at all considering my heavy foot. Very happy with my Edge. Highly recommended.
