The forthcoming 2023 Ford Edge could be the next-gen model, according to the latest reports. This popular SUV introduced its second generation in 2015, and now the 2023MY should arrive with significant upgrades. Interestingly, the 2023 Ford Edge already introduced some dramatic updates, such as a larger infotainment display.
Still, the new Edge is one year away and we expect to see a lot of changes. That includes exterior redesign, new interior, and new powertrain options. Unfortunately, we’ll have to wait for the Blue Oval to reveal official details. The sales will begin next summer and here’s everything you need to know about the new-generation Ford Edge.
2023 Edge Redesign
The all-new 2023 Ford Edge is getting a complete redesign. This makes perfect sense as the next-gen model is about to enter production. As before, Edge will continue to look modern and handsome. However, Edge will now gain new exterior features. The front fascia is completely revamped and it will host brand-new headlights. Moreover, the grille is completely new and it looks amazing. The new platform is reportedly in the works.
Thanks to that, Edge will probably grow in size, but not drastically. The goal is to deliver a slightly wider vehicle in order to improve SUV’s stability. We also expect to see new wheels and new exterior paints. The 2023MY introduced Lithium Gray and Carbonized Gray colors. Now, the 2023 Edge will introduce even more color options.
Interior Upgrades
On the inside, the 2023 Ford Edge will also host a couple of big upgrades. Edge will remain a five-seat SUV, despite new architecture and slightly larger dimensions. On the other hand, all passengers will surely enjoy additional shoulder room. As always before, Edge will continue to provide premium materials and a high level of comfort. Right now, we can’t say we know all of the interior upgrades.
However, Ford will probably introduce a more modern cabin design. The 2023MY will debut with the brand-new 12-inch infotainment display. This unit will carryover, so we do not expect to see larger displays. Anyway, some cool upgrades are about to happen, including new interior color schemes and additional equipment.
Engine Specs
The upcoming 2023 Ford Edge will have the same engine lineup as the present model. To begin with, a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 250 hp is standard. This engine has a normal front-wheel-drive arrangement, and the results are absolutely outstanding. However, if you want even more performance, the Ford Edge ST is the answer.
This sportier model has a bigger 2.7-liter V6 gasoline engine. It will have 335 horsepower and an all-wheel-drive system as standard. The same 8-speed automatic transmission is used by both engines, however, the ST variant has shifting paddles. The Edge Hybrid model is still just a pure speculation. Reportedly, this model will feature a larger hybrid system than the Escape Hybrid variant. This means more power, but fuel efficiency won’t be as great as in the Escape variant.
2023 Ford Edge Price, Release Date
The next-gen 2023 Ford Edge will now have a starting price of about $34,000. The Blue Oval intends to release its new SUV next fall. We are waiting to hear more details regarding this model. Some rumors are suggesting the end of the production for Ford Edge and Lincoln Nautilus in the next two years.
