Expert 2021 Ford Edge review

Our expert's take
By Cars.com Editors
Full article

What Is the 2021 Ford Edge?

The Ford Edge is a mid-size SUV that can seat up to five. It has a standard 250-horsepower, turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine or an available 335-hp, twin-turbo 2.7-liter V-6 that goes in the performance-oriented ST trim level. The base engine works with an eight-speed automatic transmission while the ST has a seven-speed automatic. Front- and all-wheel-drive models are offered. Competitors include the Chevrolet Blazer, Honda Passport and Hyundai Santa Fe.

What’s New on the 2021 Ford Edge?

A new multimedia system with a vertically oriented 12-inch touchscreen and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone connectivity is standard. 

What Features in the 2021 Ford Edge Are Most Important?

Standard features include: 

  • 18-inch aluminum wheels
  • Dual-zone automatic climate control
  • Cruise control
  • Cloth upholstery
  • 4G LTE Wi-Fi hot spot (data subscription required after trial)
  • Forward collision warning
  • Automatic emergency braking
  • Blind spot warning with rear cross-traffic alert
  • Lane-keeping assist
  • Automatic high-beam headlights
  • Rear parking sensors

Available features include:

  • 19- or 20-inch aluminum wheels
  • Hands-free power liftgate
  • Remote start
  • Leather-trimmed seats
  • Heated front seats
  • Heated steering wheel
  • Wireless device charging
  • Bang & Olufsen premium stereo
  • Navigation
  • Adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability

Should I Buy the 2021 Ford Edge?

The Edge drives well and offers good ride comfort, and its many standard active safety features are welcome. The base engine that goes in most trims delivers modest power, but the high-output V-6 in the ST model is considerably stronger.

    2021 Ford Edge ST Line

    I have owned my 2021 Ford Edge ST LINE since September of 2021. It is now April 2024, and I can say without a doubt, that I am very satisfied with the vehicle. I have taken long trips with it, and it was very comfortable. I have nothing negative to say about this vehicle.

    TRY A FORD EDGE

    Never in my life have I owned a Ford but this is my second Ford Edge. A 2021 Edge ST is my second and although the Titanium version was a pleasure the ST with it's handling and performance is a step above. The Edge is more comfortable than most SUV's with much more hauling capacity. Just a great fun car to drive and quite a value.

    Great vehicle except for fussy touch-screen

    I had a 2018 Titanium Edge which I loved for its comfort, smooth ride, trouble free mechanics, and looks but wanted to move up to the available driver assistance/safety features. The 2021 features those nicely. I have the Titanium again which I think is worth the extra cost. The cooled seats are better than vented A/C alone. The '21 has a 4 cylinder paired with an eight-speed transmission. That is good with a small gain in gas mileage but not as smooth as the '18 six-cylinder. My main complaint is the tablet-sized control touch-screen which has all the adjustments for interior climate. It can take two touches (or a touch and a slide) to make some adjustments and can draw one's attention off the road for too long if you're not careful. The missing knobs and buttons would be way better.

    2021 Ford Edge Review

    I like this car very much with one exception. The paint quality is not good. I’ve had to repair several chips in paint. Seems like you barely touch car and paint will chip. I have Star White which is a premium color. This shouldn’t happen. Touch up paint works great! Too badI have to use it!

    The Ford Edge 2021 ST I have purchased is a Lemon! The Dealer, Wantagh Ford has the car more than I do (Yet I pay the monthly fees and insurance.) It has been leaking oil since day 1. and the dealer keeps trying to make excuses as to what is wrong and truly they have idea or don't want to say theFord Edge is a lemon

    Drives nice and roomy. But has the loudest engine rattle I have ever heard and dealer service dept says it’s normal. I’m ready to trade it it for something that’s not a ford. My 2012 edge was much quieter…I should have kept it. I bought the 2021 edge new November 2021

    Very Happy with my Ford Edge

    I was lucky to find a new 2021 Edge. It is quiet when driving, handles well and has a comfortable interior. It provides a large cargo area with rear seats folded. I also really like the 12 " touchscreen. Getting good gas mileage. I love everything about it so far. It's a great car.

    Very reliable, safe, roomy and plenty of pep.

    My previous vehicle was a 2011 Ford Edge SEL that I had bought new in 2010. I drove it 102,000 miles. No issues with it. It was totaled when I was hit from rear by a Camry going 60. I had no injuries except for a cut finger. Thankyou FORD! That's why I replaced it with a 2021 Ford Edge SEL!

    I love this vehicle.

    Had planned on buying the Ford Escape but after test driving the Edge ST Line I was hooked. It has the sport pedals and those are still taking some getting used to (not the brake but the gas pedal.) The counsel storage is at a disadvantage to me as I have to be so far forward in the seat that it sits smack dab at the back of my elbow, so a little annoyance there. So many gadgets and icons to learn. One of the best features is the 12 inch monitor. Amazing.

    Happily surprised

    I wanted a practical and reasonably inexpensive SUV to use at our summer house in Michigan, so spent a lot of time poring over Consumer zReports and the car mag sites. The Ford Edge SEL AWD looked like a safe choice but I was curious as to how it would stack up against our other two SUVs, a Lexus and a Mercedes. I’ve only had the Edge for a week but I absolutely love it. The 250 HP 4 is peppy and more than adequate. While most of the car ratings folks ding it for “dated styling,” I think they’re nuts.

    Love my Edge!

    Car far exceeded my expectation. At first glance I assumed it would be too small to fit my family needs but I was pleasantly surprised at the room and comfort. I don’t know that I will need to look for another car for sometime and even then, I think it will be another Edge.
