Attention-Stealing Looks Come Standard
The 2020 Ford Edge was born to leave a strong impression from front to back with its refined, yet chiseled form, letting the world know you’re ready for epic drives. Upfront, you’ll have standard bi-LED headlamps to not only brighten up your paths but also emit a sleek design as you cruise around Luray. Move to the rear, and the standard dual-exhaust tips brushed with stainless-steel blended with the rear body spoiler exude a full sense of athleticism you’ll find on no other crossover.
Step inside, and you’ll find this Ford SUV packs a ride with comfort and action that matches the looks outside. Even when compared with other bold and sharp SUVs, like the 2020 Honda CR-V with its slim grille and athletic lines, the 2020 Ford Edge still provides a drive that stands above the rest. As proof, let’s take a closer look at the Ford Edge Vs Honda CR-V. Also, don’t forget to schedule a test drive of the 2020 Ford Edge at Marlow Ford in Luray, VA, to see how this compact SUV will elevate your cruises.
Unleashing Sporty Spirit in SUV Form
Performance comes natural and easy for the 2020 Ford Edge with both powertrain options aiming to ensure each ride is nothing short of exhilarating. Even the base Twin-scroll 2.0L EcoBoost® motor equips you with 250 horsepower and 280 lb-ft torque to help you feel a spirited ride when your foot hits the accelerator. Plus, with up to EPA-estimated 29 highway mpg, the fun ride continues for miles before you’ll even need to think about stopping at the gas station.
For more power, the available 2.7L EcoBoost V6 twin turbocharged motor is all about big performance with 335 horsepower and 380 lb-ft torque helping you enjoy a sporty ride when you travel and commute. Plus, you’ll also have enough power to tow up to 3,500 lbs, enough strength to take a boat out for the weekend, or even tow a lightweight moving trailer.
By comparison, the Honda CR-V offers an in-line 4-cylinder turbocharged motor as the sole gas option across its model lineup with 190 horsepower and 179 lb-ft torque. It’s enough power to find a fun ride and get where you need to go—but it also loses out to the 2020 Edge by 60 horsepower on the base models (not to mention the 145 horsepower and 201 lb-ft torque difference in Ford’s favor when comparing the ST trim to Honda’s top Touring trim), which makes all the difference when your foot hits the gas pedal—giving the 2020 Ford Edge a win for this round.
Tap into a Luxurious Side of Your Sporty Ride
Step into the 2020 Ford Edge, where an abundance of comfort features caters to your commutes and drives every mile of the way. With standard Dual Zone Electronic Temperature Controls (DEATC), you and your front passengers ride with the temperatures you want for the day—even if you crave a cool breeze and your passengers want a blast of heat to warm up. For styling, don’t forget to add in cool sporty features like available ambient lighting to set the mood right when the sun goes down, and available aluminum brake and accelerator, and sleek leather-trimmed seats with Miko inserts to evoke a track-like feel from the inside.
To assist you in connecting to your favorite media, SYNC®3 comes standard with Ford and Waze to help you find the quickest routes to the office and outsmart traffic jams, Ford + Alexa for voice-guided directions and answers to questions on the go, SiriusXM® to discover new music, and even SYNC® AppLink® with controls for some of your favorite mobile apps to access your favorite playlists and podcasts.
Jump inside the 2020 Honda CR-V, where you’ll also find luxury features like available leather-trimmed seats and available ambient lighting. This Honda SUV also packs Dual Zone Climate Controls as an available feature—but it’s not standard across all models unlike in the 2020 Ford Edge, where each trim is equipped with DEATC. Also, you’ll have a touchscreen infotainment system for connecting to your radio and settings, but features to connect directly with your phones apps via Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ along with SiriusXM® are all available instead of the standard—giving the 2020 Ford Edge a winning “edge” for the interior.
Premium Safety in Both SUVs: But Which Covers You Better?
Riding with confidence and feeling safe on the road is all a part of the 2020 Ford Edge experience thanks to standard Ford Co-Pilot360™ driver-assist features looking out for you. Features like Post-Collision Braking help prevent you from sliding into dangerous intersections after an accident. Meanwhile, BLIS® with Cross-Traffic Alert warns you when drivers cruise in surrounding lanes in your blind zones—helping you better judge when to merge safely. You’ll also enjoy Lane-Keeping System, Autolamp wiper-activated headlamps, and Rain-Sensing Wipers guiding your cruises.
When you drive the 2020 Honda CR-V, you’ll ride with standard safety like Lane Keeping Assist. However, note that Blind Spot Information System with Cross Traffic Monitor is an available feature—and not standard across all models, which is one of the most critical and helpful driver assists in helping your highway commutes remain collision-free. Thus, the 2020 Ford Edge stands out more when it comes to standard safety features.
