Ford Edge 2019 ST Unveiled At 2018 Detroit Auto Show

The Ford Edge 2019 ST just dropped ahead of its official debut in Detroit next week. On the heels of its hottest year for sport-utility vehicle sales, Ford unveiled a new Ford Edge 2019 ST with an aggressive cosmetic and technology overhaul.

The company outfitted the new Ford Edge 2019 ST with a standard 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, with output bumped from 245 horsepower to an even 250. Torque remains the same at 275 lb.-ft. The vehicle has WiFi capability for up to 10 devices. Drivers can use a smartphone to lock, unlock, remotely start and locate the Edge.

In addition, the vehicle allows consumers to check details such as tire pressure and fuel status from home.

Also available for the first time in some Edge models will be evasive steering assist (to help a driver maneuver around an accident), adaptive cruise control with lane centering, and post-collision braking (to slow down and stop a vehicle after an initial impact to limit further risk and injury).

The Ford Edge 2019 ST stability control system has a selectable “relaxed” setting that allows drivers to probe higher limits for more “fun” on twisty roads before intervening. A Sport mode button in the center of the rotary shifter enables quicker throttle response, holds lower gears longer and provides rev-matched downshifts.

Ford insists the Ford Edge 2019 ST is not a hard-edged hotrod but rather an “everyday performance vehicle” with a firm but compliant ride.
