Ford Reveals Tech-Savvy Ford Edge Concept

WESTLAND, Mich. - While there has been a lot of talk about the 2015 Ford Edge and its features, noone came close to guessing what amazing technology would be included in the new vehicle. This week at the L.A. Auto Show, Ford will be revealing a tech-savvy Ford Edge Concept that will include several driving technologies and a sportier, more luxurious look.

First, Ford has revealed that this Ford Edge Concept will come with a self-parking feature that will build on the active park-assist technology that Ford currently offers. This technology will allow the car to parallel or perpendicular park itself, all from a simple push of a button. The driver will need to push a button inside the vehicle and sit back while it parks, or step outside and tell the vehicle to park via a remote control.

The Ford Edge Concept will also have an obstacle avoidance technology that keeps the passengers of the vehicle safe by steering out of the way of any slow-moving or stationary objects. First, the technology will warn the driver that they are rapidly approaching an object, giving the driver plenty of time to slow down or stop. If the driver makes no move to avoid the object, the vehicle will use cameras and sensors to safely steer the vehicle out of the way.

Finally, Ford has announced that the Ford Edge Concept comes with adaptive steering. This technology allows for high-speed control and makes low-speed moves easier. It will also feature a start-stop technology that will boost fuel economy significantly.

Ford has revealed a tech-savvy Ford Edge Concept that is sure to make Ford drivers everywhere itch to get behind the wheel! While we will all have to wait until sometime in late 2014 to drive this beauty, nobody has to wait to take the 2013 or 2014 Ford Edge out for a spin.

2015 Ford Edge Spotted

WESTLAND, Mich. - The 2015 Ford Edge has been spotted cruising around the outskirts of Detroit recently, giving residents a sneak peek at what's to come for the popular crossover.

Although it's heavily camouflaged, the Ford Edge is easily recognizable by its size, wide stance, and signature three-bar grille - although the grill is looking more three-dimensional than the last model. As for the rest of the Edge's exterior, not much can be said with the thick covering. However, it is believed that the 2015 model won't be updated too drastically in the looks department.

As for the performance of the 2015 Ford Edge that was spotted, the current Edge's V6 engine and turbo-four options are expected to carry over. The 2.0-liter EcoBoost four works well with the current Ford Edge, allowing the crossover to produce 240HP while improving fuel economy drastically. The 3.5-liter V6 engine produces 285HP and 253 lb-ft of torque.

Fortunately, we'll only have to wait another month or so to get all of the specifics on this 2015 Ford Edge. This is because Ford is expected to reveal the redesigned model at the L.A. auto show! Until then, stop by our Southgate Area Ford Dealership today and check out the current model on our lot. If you're looking for something smaller, we have a great selection of New Ford Cars that you'll enjoy getting behind the wheel of. So stop by and say hello!
