Exploring the 2015 Ford Edge

Looking for a new car?

Perhaps the 2015 Ford Edge is the vehicle for you.

From its sculpted curves to its athletic stance, the exterior is designed to help you make an entrance.

But there’s much more to it than just a pretty face.

The Edge Sport with the 2.7L V6 EcoBoost delivers the pickup, horsepower and torque to keep you in the fast lane.

Available adaptive steering will give you confidence with every turn.

Available advanced technology – like ultrasonic sensors – detect vehicles and objects in your blind spots while a front-facing camera gives you a peek around corners at slow speeds.

The available Lane-Keeping System uses a forward-facing camera to scan the road ahead. Drift out of your lane, and the steering wheel vibrates and actively applies steering torque to alert you to steer your vehicle back into the lane.

An available Blind Spot Information System uses two hidden rear radar sensors to warn you of vehicles entering your blind spot on either side. And cross-traffic alert warns you of vehicles you can’t see when you’re slowly backing out of a parking space.

Available adaptive cruise control can detect traffic slowing ahead and automatically slow your vehicle. When traffic has cleared, the vehicle resumes your set speed.

The 2015 Ford Edge uses its available system of ultrasonic systems to help you in nearly all parking situations – perpendicular parking, parallel parking, parking garages and more.

Available Enhanced Active Park Assist adds the ability for Edge to help you with perpendicular parking too. Utilizing the vehicle’s 12 ultrasonic sensors, Edge will scan for suitable parking spaces, and will assist in backing the vehicle into the spot. All you have to do is shift, accelerate and brake, and Edge will take care of the steering.

While driving slowly near parking spots, simply activate this feature and it scans for available parking spots. Ultrasonic sensors measure the distance to the curb and other parked cars. Once a big enough spot is identified, you’re signaled to stop and accept the system’s assistance. Just control the shifting, accelerating, and braking.

The Edge is always ready to steer you out of a tight parallel parking spot with available park out assist. When you’re wedged into a parallel parking spot, simply press the button and the system will give you reassuring instructions on shifting as well as moving forward and back while Edge steers you out. Just accelerate and brake.

With the available Side Parking Sensor, you can stay aware of your surroundings. The Edge has your back, your front, and of course your sides – warning you when the vehicle becomes too close to objects.

At slow speeds, the Edge helps you see around corners, down alleys and even while you’re pulling out of parking spots, thanks to the available 180º camera tucked in the grille.

The Edge is equally adept at keeping you in touch orhelping you get away from it all.

Stay connected to your world with hands-free calling, voice-activated entertainment, customizable instrument cluster screens, and touch-screen controls.

You will also enjoy home theater-type audio with 390 watts of continuous power through the combination of 12 speakers and subwoofers.

Sounds good, right?
