Ford has manufactured the 2009 Ford Edge as a premium crossover SUV that is based around the Ford CD3 platform, which it shares with the Mazda6 and is effectively modified from the Lincoln MKX. The Mazda CX-9 crossover, the Mercury Milan, the Lincoln MKZ and the Ford Fusion sedans all share its platform.
As a crossover vehicle, the Edge bridges the gap between those minivans that are like the since discontinued Freestar, and truck-based sport utility vehicles such as the Explorer. The Edge officially slots below the Taurus X in Ford's crossover SUV lineup, although it is not much smaller than that model.
The 2009 Ford Edge is the latest model in the Edge range and that attempts to live up to the demand for a spacious, yet stylish, car. This five-passenger utility vehicle has several interesting features. Ford insists that this is much more than just a car, suggesting that it is a cross between a minivan and a truck.
A 3. 5 liter V6 engine powers the 2009 Ford Edge, which kicks out an impressive 265 horsepower through a 6 speed automatic transition. All-wheel drive is available, but front wheel drive is the standard. The SUV boasts many safety features such as anti-lock brakes, a tire-pressure monitoring system and AdvanceTrac electronic stability control. The airbags are front seat-mounted side-impact, front/rear curtain and front impact as standard.
The Edge series made its debut at the 2006 NAIA Show in the January of 2006, and production of the 2007 model began in the October 2006, with the first ones being released just before December 25, 2006, due to issues with one of the suppliers. The 2009 Ford Edge utilizes Ford's innovative front end design, with its usual three bar chrome grille.
The 2009 Ford Edge has a fuel economy that is rated at 15 to 16 miles per gallon in the city, and 22 to 24 miles per gallon on the highway. As mentioned above, the Edge is available in both all-wheel drive and front-wheel drive and uses Ford's front end design with its distinctive three-bar chrome grille. Although the 2007 series was introduced with the three trim levels of SE, SEL, and SEL Plus, the 2009 series has dispensed with the SEL Plus version.
Standard accompaniments on all versions of the 2009 Ford Edge includes air conditioning; lumbar support on the driver's seat; cruise control; power windows, door locks and mirrors; a remote keyless entry; tilt and telescopic steering wheel; and P235/65R17 tires with alloy wheels. The safety equipment on the car includes standard front airbags as well as front side-impact airbags and side curtain airbags. There are anti-lock brakes, a innovative system to monitor tire-pressure and an electronic stability control.
