sebxx the only reason I want a SUV Is the massive storage in the trunk. I'm so glad it's not a seven seater since I'm just getting my first car and I'll never have more than 3 people in my car at the same time probably.
Here in the colonies, Ford has several hatchbacks, CUVs and SUVs ranging from the tiny Fiesta to the MASSIVE Expedition L. So the Edge doesn't need a 3 row in order to compete.
I really love your reviews... For a a person like me I really don't get anything about cars except that I want a fast car with economical fuel consumption 😁 I really appreciate that you go in details and show the pros and cons of each and every car you review 😍❤️
D T The Expedition is WAY bigger than the H3. The H3 was built on the old Chevy Colorado chassis, a compact pickup barely bigger than a Ranger and smaller than an F150.
Well, I have been waiting to buy and test my Ford Edge before I write a comment on this video. I understand that very few people will reatd this comment as it is postdated, but I had to write it anyway as a tribute to fairness. Some of what you are saying make sense Mat, but some aren't. I bought a Ford Edge 2019, ST with 55.000 kilometers for 25.400 without VAT from Germany. Please notice the price for a secondhand car in comparison with equivalent German brands that you seem to refer to Also, notice that this car is fully equipped for that price. Now let's be fair here, can we?? Further, let's continue with some negatives you are attributing to this car. First, the infotainment system. The car you have tested (2018) is equipped with Sync 2. Indeed, it is slow and not good, you are right. However, cars already as of 2017 and onwards are equipped with Sync 3, which is not top notch if you compare it with other premium and even not so premium brands, but it is way better than Sync 2 that you have tested. In fact, if functionality is what we are talking about and not strange lights and unnecessary functions, one could argue that this is great. American reviewers seem to think so and they know about infotainments. So, it is a very good infotainment and way better than Sync 2. You didn't mention that there is that option, Sync 3, that is. I told you, let's be fair. So, you are saying that you can mix it in terms of ride quality and relaxation with top German rivals. Well, I endorse this. It is an excellent car to drive, a real tank! You are saying that there is a big minus to the luck of engine choices. Well, if you find the one offered satisfactory, why would this be a minus? I find the 238 bhp and 500 nm of torque two litter biturbo diesel an excellent choice. BTW you have tested the previous model with 210 bhp and 450 nm of torque which had 6 speed automatic gearbox instead of the 238 bhp with 8 speed automatic of the 2019 model that I have bought. None of this is too important though. Cars evolve, and even the one you have tested was a good engine. Bottom line: I don't care if there are no other engine options as this one is indeed excellent, so it is not a negative to me. Noisy sunscreen blind? Come on Mat! Left and right marking in the storage a really negative point and a notion of stupidity? Give me a break! This car is excellent for it's price, especially as a secondhand. Actually, one of the very few such bargains in the market. Excellent ride quality, reasonable consumption, full extra, lane assist with steering adjustment, automatic cruise control, speed sign recognition and automatic adjustment of the Cruise control accordingly, 360 sensors, matrix lights, front camera with 180 option, it even parks alone for God's sake. And I haven't even mentioned but very few of the car's equipment. Do you know how much these extras would cost in what you call "premium German brand"? Why do you forget to say that it comes full extra at the price? Isn't it important? And on top of everything it really turns heads, because it's stunning. I do like your style and I laugh a lot with your spirit and jokes, but to put things straight, you have been unfair mate! Good that I didn't pay attention to your review, made my own research and have finally bought it. Guys, please read the owner's reviews. They know better as they live with the cars. This saved me.
My issue with a car this size is parking. Kuga is perfect size but a tad small for seats up boot space. Edge looks like a good upgrade but size should have always live sensors all round and rear parking camera. Over 30mpg is good for any SUV near 2 tons.
The things at the back of the car labeled L and R are marked as such so if you remove them it'll be easy to figure out which goes where. They're both kind of shaped similarly so people might get confused. But that it's really hard though because you'd have to be pretty dumb not to figure it out quickly, but still, it's a nice touch.
This is a small to medium SUV in the U.S. it's not very big compared to most cars we drive. We also get the 2.0T I4, 3.5 V6, and 2.7TT V6 no diesels here. Our interior also looks a bit different plus sync 3.
In the US these are significantly cheaper than the cars you are comparing them too. American made cars are never priced well in the EU due to high import tariffs on vehicles.
Lathan Starnes actually it's due to European cars in your country costing more, the best selling car is a fiesta and that sells well and is priced even cheaper then the German equivalent, only slightly though
Chatta290 European Vehicle import tariffs are 8 times higher than the equivalent American import tariffs as reported by the European Commission in section 2.2 of the "Reducing Transatlantic Barriers to Trade and Investment". European cars are competitively priced in the US.
Lathan Starnes Nissans and Kia cars are extremely cheap and they will be subject to the same taxation though so why arent there vehicles much more. i guess its just like how the range rover is less in dollars in america which is extremely crazy to think surely it would be higher but oh well
Chatta290 Because Nissans are made in Europe, and the EU has a free trade agreement with South Korea. A lot of European nations heavily tax cars based on CO2 emissions and engine displacement, America has no such taxes.
The Explorer & the Maverick/Escape were both imported from the USA to UK & Europe.....and Ford Anglias & Cortinas were exported to The USA in the 60s.... And first 2 gens of German built Ford Capris were sold in North America! To mention just a few

@3:15 - the bit you tap is a leather wrapped padded door insert... which covers all of the upper door. In the Vignale it's all leather... how is it cheap?
I have a 2016 eco boost 2 ltr Edge, its giving a squeaky noise when driven. The squeaky noise is intermittent. I have taken it to the dealership at least 5 times and they have not been able to find the cause nor the area from where it’s coming. They say they cannot do anything about it and gave the car to me. I really feel bad about this experience and inefficiency . The squeaky sound takes away the driving pleasure. Is there any way to fix this ?
For the base price of a Ford Edge you can get a basically fully loaded Skoda Kodiaq, which does have a third row of seats should you need them. The interior quality is pretty much the same, and in the driving aspect, let's be honest, nobody is buying these cars as substitute for a 911.
The Skoda does not look as good in the exterior nor would it be as good off road. Fords AWD system in my opinion would be better than the VW equivalent. The interior of both cars are about the same to be honest. Now Ford does offer better trim levels than Skoda but you will pay for them. They are both nice cars to be honest.
Hi Chatta290 I am not saying it is as good as a Toureg but it is the same dimensions, albeit lighter by 170kg. Crucially they are both only 5 seaters and both fall behind other premium brands. The Volvo XC90 is a much better car than both but it is now nearly £50k if you put in a couple of decent options. It is a weird thing that quite a fewcar makers have had 7 seats in the mid price model (Tiguan, Disco) but only 5 seats in their luxury model (Toureg, Range Rover historically). So it is not just Ford who are quirky.
You would never get a European SUV that is the same size for the same money. The Q5 would be the nearest european equivalent and it starts at £40,000 (you may get a deal). ANd if you take a european SUV that is the same size and equipment it will cost an extra few thousand so it could be about 30% more in cost. Lexus RX which is the same size starts at about £48,000 (no extras needed). I would say the best match you will find to the Ford edge would be the Mazda CX5 at £25,000 but will not be as good off road. Land Rover discovery would be a good alternative but would not be as good to drive the road or as reliable. The Ford edge also has an amazing looking exterior for the price and looks very aggressive.
@@bighands69 The nearest competitor is not European. It's Hyundai Santa Fe. It gives you as much space and comfort in the second row as Audi Q7, but is nearly 3x cheaper (when we talk about fully equipped versions).
I have it and every day I discover new hidden features. Do you know that you can program 3rd key directly with the help of car? Or do you know you can start the engine with the dead battery of the key? Do you know holding unlock button long enough makes down all the windows?
Jerome Seguin America, North America, the Americas. It's not that hard to distinguish. Saying Canada is in America is like saying the UK is in Greater Asia.
After 10 months of using the new FORD EDGE I’ve got a lot of problems with it such as strange sound comes from the engine, computer problems, fuel gage getting stuck some time.. etc. it was the worst choice I ever made in 2017..!!
thats the old sync 2 infotainment system, most fords are getting the new sync 3, which is way way better, shame my focus has sync 2...no upgrade option as it requires a completely new screen :(
Well in CH you get one for 29000 and it bearly made any 12k KM where a Range Rover even the lowest one costs about 48000 and a Merc GLE you can't get under 78000 with the same year and optionals, i'm gonna get my self one next year and prob tune it up from the standart 210hp/400nm to 290hp and 500nm for less than 1k so it goes from 0-100 at least in 7,9sec instead of 9,6sec
Meh!,... I just returned from holiday in California (April 2022). For driving around, I wanted a big comfortable armchair on wheels and the EDGE seemed like a reasonable option. We spent lots of time driving around LA which, given the states of the roads, presented no particular challenge. Driving down to San Diego for four days, we averaged 22 mpg. The four cylinder turbo engine coped, but I prefer the extra grunt which is available from the V6... In the UK, a gallon of petrol equates to $7.88... In the US, we were paying $5.70 From a drivers point of view,... The lanes on the various interstates we travelled (Interstates 5, 405, 101 etc) were narrower than UK motorways... given the wide wheels, the EDGE wanders a fair bit. The Edge no longer appears in FORD's UK website for new cars... but would I buy a Ford EDGE for use in the UK?.... Not really,... there's better options.
It took me about a minute and a half to understand what you were talking about in the begging pf the video. I just thought that you should have put a photo of The Edge in the storage compartment and then I realized you have already mentioned him 😝
Hey Matt, in this video you show your GPS position which I swear is somewhere very near my flat in Yiewsley. In another video, you showed that you were actually staying in a hotel right next to my house in France (just behind my fence). spooky!
Does it off much over the kuga? I quiet liked the kuga in titanium spec. But Ford sync would probably be a deal breaker. I want android auto in my next car, and I don't think sync has that.
You can technically compare this with a Volkswagen Touareg. If that's the case, I'd buy this anytime over the Touareg, it looks better, it's more reliable, and it's cheaper to buy and to maintain. Well done Ford!
This car's day time running lights are among the best ive seen
Midsize crossover in the US. "Big beast of a SUV" in UK.
Well I must say that we are so sorry for having smaller cars in the uk and I hope you can except this ever so sincere apology!
Fat Brit means 20 stone, fat Yank means 500lbs....so yes everything in comparison 🙄
A Midsized suv in most of the world would be the Ford Escape, Subaru Forester, Kia Sportage, Mazda Cx-5
I'd love to see his review of a Ford Excursion 😂
6:13 cheeky Clarkson impression?
tavi921 yup!
I drove all of these, in fact I more or less live with one of these during my year in the United States, amazing vehicle loved every minute with it
"... Why didn't Ford make it a 7-seater" ?? Well, why would anyone compromise the giant boot for 2 barely usable seats :(
sebxx check out the Explorer
The Explorer is bigger
Explorer is bigger that's why it can accomodate more seats.

If you Brits think that's a big American Ford, then you've never seen the Expedition
The Excursion, you mean? ;)
@domspar what about the excursion? U forget that one
Excursion was even bigger :O
Lmao the Expedition is just a tiny bit bigger than the Hummer H3 (aka the baby Hummer) If you want a big American car it's going to be the H2 or H1.
D T The Expedition is WAY bigger than the H3. The H3 was built on the old Chevy Colorado chassis, a compact pickup barely bigger than a Ranger and smaller than an F150.
I really love your reviews. They’re so honest and realistic. I think I’m going to subscribe.

here in my country $33k gets you a top spec corolla/mid spec jetta/octavia.
yah so like the rest of europe
nah, cars are pretty cheap in europe

Rather buy the sport is there much difference?
gary savage yes I have a black 2017 sport model with adaptive led headlights and sync 3 - I love it and I'm a diehard car / motorbike guy
You guys get stuck with Sync 2?!? I bought my Edge in April of 2016 and got Sync 3, I could never buy the Edge with Sync 2.
I am not getting, how did you upload a 2018 Ford video review in 2016?
i love my edge, got all camping gear in it ,that used to fit in a ranger.
That text tho 😂😂
Hey buddy this is my car, I didnt know you did a review on it, its a great car!
The Sport version looks really good!
TheGorbaa I have the sport and I absolutely love it! ❤️
Is it 2018 or did you just rename it for views hmmm?
This guy is really funny. He should have his own show! I love him!
How good is the auto/ powershift box on Fords? Is it slick like BMW/MINI 8 speed box or slow revvy and clunky like older autos?
It's like the older ones in this car. The powershift is like a windmill, the problem is that it's churning itself.

Yes. It also comes at a similar price to Touareg or Grand Cherokee.

That text message made me laugh
Sat in a £41k Vignale version of this today and I really wish I could afford one.
Uk gets 2 diesel engines. Here in the u.s we get 3 gas engines. Im sure you would have loved the 2.7 ecoboost sport model. 315 hp
If you want four wheel drive on the Ford Edge you’ve either gotta have the ST-Line or the Vignale.

hi mat, could u do a review about the edge vignale? thx
The Ford Edge was build in Ontario Canada. Why do I know because I have one and it is a 2017
i didn't spot the continuity error, someone please enlighten me?
is this same car which ford offering in India as 2017 ecosport...?
abhijit tawde No, ecosport is the small SUV, Kuga is the mid size SUV and Edge is the large SUV.
abhijit tawde no the eco sport is a third of the price at around £13,000
Actually it's built in Canada (Oakville, Ontario) but we're splitting hairs I guess.
wr70beh nope us
its basically an americanised ford s-max
stupid twat, did you not know Ford is an American company?
Twinkle Baby
why hairy?
You do realise they have an cars that are designed and built by the Europeans right?
canadianise you dumb arse it's from ontario.
canada is part of north america......
wait how are you getting 37 mpg???

I would highly advise that you avoid the 2.0L 4 cylinder engine. It is woefully slow on anything but the flattest of roads.
why in the world are ya'll getting sync 2 in 2017 fords?!! the brilliant sync 3 is offered on stateside cars & trucks....
Please do a review on the 2017 Nissan Murano.
didnt see the continuity error you mentioned
maybe to do with the hat he was wearing in the beggining but am not sure
Had to look hard - the colour of the front and rear number plates are different.
Saile Ronoh this is the case in all uk cars...
Could it be the cameraman in the window reflection at 0.44?
I think he refers to his disappearing beanie :)
Why does sometimes the hatchback make the car honk than sometimes not cause that happeneds to me
Americanhooligan Can anyone explain what on earth that means ?
If they made this car a 7 seater, it would become more of an explorer than an edge.
37mpg is good. My Kuga AWD at 1.7ton does 38mpg and these are up to 300kg heavier.
The Edge is built in Oakville Ontario Canada. Not America as stated in this review.
Hey Matt, in this video you show your GPS position which I swear is somewhere very near my flat in Yiewsley. In another video, you showed that you were actually staying in a hotel right next to my house in France (just behind my fence). spooky!
Does it off much over the kuga? I quiet liked the kuga in titanium spec. But Ford sync would probably be a deal breaker. I want android auto in my next car, and I don't think sync has that.
Stephen Butler Sync 3 has Android Auto and Apple Carplay. Most new ford's today, have the Updated Sync (3)
***** cheers, thanks.
All 2017 Edges have Sync 3, the video has an error
the body shape is like a cayenne and the headlights look cool and sleek like an audi
The Ford Edge is assembled in Oakville Ontario CANADA !
Took me 20 minutes to work out that the continuity error was the beanie. I even checked to make sure this wasn't released on april 1st.
the edge sport in black with the led lights looks cool as f*
PerArduaadAstra07 .
I like it... but America gets a twin turbo v6 and we get silly little engines 😤😤
That Ford infotainment system is so 2008.. I hope they will do some big changes.
You can technically compare this with a Volkswagen Touareg. If that's the case, I'd buy this anytime over the Touareg, it looks better, it's more reliable, and it's cheaper to buy and to maintain. Well done Ford!
