As a Ford dealer, we get an up-close look at the cutting-edge features of today’s new cars. There is plenty to love about the 2024 Ford Edge, including a 12-inch touchscreen and an available hands-free liftgate. Read on for a closer look at just a few of our favorite features.
1. A 12-Inch Touchscreen
Every Edge comes with a user-friendly 12-inch touchscreen. This standard screen is in the center stack and serves multiple functions. You can use your infotainment system to check what song is playing, answer a phone call, or check the traffic. Your Edge comes equipped with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, with available wireless integration.
If you’re looking to stay connected at all times, you’ll want to consider adding the available FordPass Connect 4G LTE WiFi hotspot. Ford’s hotspot technology allows you to connect up to ten devices at once. Additionally, you’ll be able to use the hotspot within 50 feet of the vehicle. This feature is particularly convenient on long family road trips.
2. An Available Hands-Free Liftgate
When you swipe your foot under the center of the rear bumper, your liftgate will automatically open up for you. Loading and unloading your SUV just got a lot easier.
This available feature makes it easy to access your spacious cargo area. Behind the second-row seats, you’ll have 39.2 cubic feet of cargo space. With the second rows folded down, you’ll have a maximum cargo capacity of 73.4 cubic feet. For perspective, this is enough space to fit approximately 29 carry-on suitcases.
3. Sporty Handling
Your Edge comes standard with intelligent all-wheel drive. When you use the Edge’s Sport mode, the intelligent all-wheel drive system will automatically switch on, for a more seamless driving experience. If you love manually shifting gears as smoothly as possible, you’ll want the available paddle shifters. This great feature lets you shift from gear to gear with the touch of a button mounted right on the steering wheel.
4. Driver Assistance Technology
Your Edge is well-equipped with plenty of driver-assist features that you can get excited about. Some standard driver assist features include a lane departure warning, paired with lane-keeping assist. These features will not only let you know when you’re drifting out of your lane, but gently and automatically steer the vehicle safely back to the center.
Additionally, there are available driver assist features, like available adaptive cruise control. This excellent feature will monitor your following distance. It will then speed up or slow down as necessary to maintain your following distance, without any effort on your part.
The Edge is an exciting SUV with lots to offer. Drivers looking for advanced technology and a smooth ride will want to experience this one for themselves. Visit Torrington Ford now to see our wide selection of new vehicles.
