Differences do exist between USA & Canadian 2021 Edge ST adaptive headlight Window Sticker listings, based upon these examples of vehicles currently in dealer stock.

 

Surprisingly, many standard features described on the USA Window Sticker are not included on the Canada Window Sticker, and the Canada 401A package includes the Cold Weather Package and Floor Liners that are not part of the USA 401A.

 

Looking to OASIS's Detailed Specification Report, essentially a build-sheet of vehicle features, both Edge STs are JOB 1 Program Control units and the USA & Canada headlight descriptions are identical: Headlamps - Level 5, and, Auto High Lamp Headlamp.

 

Looking to the Historic Vehicle Bill of Material (HVBOM) Report, which lists component part numbers installed on a VIN-designated vehicle, the bi-LED headlamp assembly is identical in the USA & Canada Edge STs.

 

The 2021 Edge Workshop Manual offers the same advice which I previously shared, with emphasis added...

 

The high series headlamps are equipped with adaptive front lighting. Depending on the inputs received (steering wheel angle and vehicle speed for example), the adaptive front lighting module can command the angle at which the headlamps are aimed (left or right) to improve nighttime visibility around curves. Adaptive front lighting is only activated when the headlamp switch is in the AUTOLAMPS position.

 

Based upon these records, it seems likely your Canada-market Edge ST has adaptive headlamps, though it makes no sense whatsoever that Ford would not disclose it on the Window Sticker, unless Canada regulates feature-listing.

 

The next time you drive at night, put the headlamp switch in the Autolamps position and look for lateral movements in the light pattern as you turn left or right.

 

Good luck!
