The 2019 Ford Edge has more available driver-assist technologies than any vehicle in its class, which make it easy for you to drive with confidence and keep everybody on the road safer. Known as Ford Co-Pilot360 Technology, these vehicles are equipped with a suite of advanced features.

The Ford Edge is loaded with sensors and cameras which help make you aware of the other vehicles and objects around you.

Ford Sync3 AppLink makes it easy to connect with beloved third-party apps such as Waze, the popular mapping app which gives updates on road and traffic conditions in real time. Now, you can interact with the app through your SUV’s screen, or through voice-control for hands-off control while driving.

Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking braces the car when it senses that a collision is imminent. Smart features like Auto Start-Stop reduce fuel consumption and helps lower your carbon footprint, by automatically turning off the engine when the car is stopped and seamlessly turning it back on the moment your foot comes off the brake pedal. This is perfect for stop-and-go downtown urban traffic.
