2019 Ford Edge ST


Recommended Posts

In reading this, my take would be the following:

Ā 

Take the 400 hp TT V6 from the Continental (Make it 450+ hp) and couple it with a beefier AWD system

Install the 9 speed trans

Bang and Olufsen is a good choice. Revel is better. B&W is even better.

LED Headlights

Full leather interior

No rotary dial shifter

Offer a Manual transmission option

Upgrade the steering for more feel and sharper handling without compromising ride quality

Ā 

See, I am not asking for much.....lol

Honestly, I'm not loving it from a styling perspective. I think the current sport grille looks more upscale and aggressive (I also don't like that the new front just looks like a Focus ST jumbo sized). Also, I think they should have kept the "light bar" but updated it. It's definitely a distinctive feature of the Edge that is now lost. Personally I like horizontal exhaust outlets vs these new squared off vertical ones. The interior is basically the same (I figured they would go to the rotary dial selector). The ONE part of the exterior I do like more than the current model is the new hood, and obviously the fog/lower accent lights. The current triangular ones never "fit" in my eyes,

I like it, if they didnt ruin the Sport, sorry I mean ST, with garbage suspension setup i.e. if the people that built the focus ST\RS came within a mile of setting this up, it will be horrible (in my humble opinion). Honestly, I would gladly give up all the new safety kit just for Magna Ride. My list of essentials is:

1. More Power

2. Better Gearbox

3. Better Sound System

4. Better Suspension and Damping (Magna Ride)

5. Adaptive Cruise Control
