If you are in the market for a hot hauler that will get your family around in swift style, the 2019 Edge ST is about to arrive on dealer lots. Now its Build & Price site is live, so you can chose your options and see which ones fit into your budget. Ford says its latest performance SUV is the only midsize utility to offer this level of performance under $43,000.
This thing really moves – around corners, from a stop and on straightaways. — Tom Ozog, Ford
“There is white space in the market right now, and Edge ST will fill it,” Cristina Aquino, Ford Edge brand marketing manager, said. “There is nothing like the new Edge ST. As far as true performance SUVs at this price point, Edge ST is really one of a kind.”
To get to that level it is powered by a 2.7-liter EcoBoost engine that delivers 335 horsepower and 380 lb-ft of torque. An eight-speed automatic transmission doles that performance out with help from a Sport driving mode and adjustable traction control settings. And, naturally, it rides on a sport-tuned suspension.
