It’s a nice touch, but the more advanced digital dials from Audi and BMW are easier to read and far more visually engaging. You also get a 12.3-inch digital driver’s display as standard instead of conventional analogue dials. And, you can swipe across the map or pinch to zoom in just like you would on a smartphone. The satellite navigation system’s pretty easy to get to grips with, though. The menus can be a tad difficult to navigate through – especially while you’re driving – and you don’t get any handy physical shortcut buttons like you do in most other SUVs to help you switch from one feature to another. Sure, it gets DAB radio, Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard, but the on-screen graphics look a little clunky and it isn’t particularly responsive. More so given this is now Ford’s older interior look and feelĮvery Ford Edge comes with an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, but it feels a bit old-fashioned next to the more advanced systems in alternative SUVs. The ST-Line model adds a dark roof lining, alloy pedals and sportier, more supportive seats, although you’ll never be mistaking the Edge for sports car inside.Īnybody hoping for Audi levels of quality inside a Ford Edge will be disappointed. The Ford Edge Vignale adds more leather to the doors and dash, while the seats get higher quality leather, but the same basic construction and switches remain. Its switches and air vents, in particular, feel flimsier to use. You’ll find large soft-touch areas on the dashboard and doors in Titanium and ST-Line models and plenty of piano black chrome accents dotted around to lift the mood, but ultimately the Ford Edge fails to wow like its alternatives do.
At least it doesn’t look messy or cluttered, and everything’s laid out sensibly so it’s all easy to use.
#FORD EDGE INTERIOR PATCH#
The Ford Edge doesn’t look quite as modern as the new Focus inside, so it’s certainly not a patch on the flash cabins you’ll find in the Audi Q5, Mercedes GLC or even the Skoda Kodiaq.
