Frequently Asked Questions - the Ford Explorer vs. the Ford Edge
Two topnotch, world-class SUV options from Ford, the Explorer and the Edge offer the reliability, power, and features that drivers have long come to expect from our favorite automotive brand name. But they're also two different models, with distinct characteristics and traits to offer. Read on to learn more about what sets these two apart and to gain insight into them that can help you choose between them.
I need a large SUV to accommodate my family - do either the Ford Explorer or the Ford Edge come with three rows?
A. Yes! The Ford Explorer is the larger of these two SUVs, and, as such, it is the only one that comes equipped with three rows of seating standard. While the Ford Edge has two spacious rows of seating for five people, the Explorer can seat up to seven, with various three-row configurations available depending on your needs.
How much cargo can the Ford Explorer and Ford Edge help me haul?
A. Both SUVs have ample cargo space for all your gear, with two rows that fold flat in the Explorer to accommodate extra gear, and one back row to fold in the Edge when you need more space. However, with all seats in place, the Ford Edge has the advantage in cargo space. It can hold up to 39.2 cubic feet behind the backseats, while the third row in the Explorer cuts into its cargo space, giving you 18.2 cubic feet.
I'm looking for a hybrid SUV for my next vehicle - do either of these models have a hybrid option?
A. Yes! The Ford Explorer is available in a variety of powertrain configurations that can be customized to suit your needs, including a smooth and efficient hybrid system. Meanwhile, the Ford Edge is available strictly as a gas-powered SUV, with two options available, a four-cylinder gas engine or a robust V6.
Safety is important to me - which SUV affords me the latest in safety technologies?
A. Both! As two of the top Ford models in the lineup, both the Ford Explorer and the Ford Edge give drivers a comprehensive list of standard safety amenities. Highlights for both SUVs include frontal collision mitigation, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, automatic emergency braking, lane keeping assistance, and much more.
