Vehicle Highlights
Ford introduces a new car-type midsize SUV for 2007, a five-passenger wagon based on the same platform as the Fusion sedan. Edge comes in SE, SEL, and SEL Plus models, all with front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive without low-range gearing. The sole powertrain is a 265-hp V6 and a 6-speed automatic transmission. ABS and traction/antiskid control are standard. So are front side airbags and curtain side airbags. Optional for both SEL models is Ford's Vista Roof, a glass roof with a sliding glass sunroof over the front seats. Other SEL exclusives include an optional navigation system, DVD entertainment, leather upholstery, and 18-inch wheels. Lincoln gets a luxury-trimmed version of the Edge for 2007 called the MKX.
