Driving dynamics were good.
AWD system is excellent.
Reliability so far has been very poor regarding features and mechanically, based on dealership records.
Body flex and rattle is very poor compared to the pilot and my 2015 cx5 at same mileage.
Mpg is mid 21s, for daily use for her. The Pilot was 2 to 3 less, but was not awd.
Over all, the Edge is a great idea poorly executed. I'd recommend something else. She is very luke warm on it at the 6mo mark.
I thought the Titanium came with the 2.7?
Edge Sport, now called the Edge ST, has the 2.7 EcoBoost. The 2017-2019 Fusion Sport has the same engine, and in fact, the same engine/transmission and calibration as the Edge Sport. I see the Edge ST even uses the same seats, steering wheel, and most of the interior layout as the Fusion Sport. The 2.7 EcoBoost in the Fusion/Edge is nearly identical to the truck 2.7 with some differences. The problem with the Edge ST is it costs almost as much as an Explorer ST but is too heavy and is underpowered. If you pay like $5k more for the Explorer ST, you get almost 70 more hp for not much more gain in weight, but with a lot more cargo/people capacity. The best way to describe it is that the stock Explorer ST has the same weight
ower ratio as a Fusion Sport. When both are tuned, they have comparable weight to power ratios as well. The Edge ST is slower in each scenario.

My wife and I drove both the Edge (actually two of them, one had the 2.0, and the other had the 3.5) and an Explorer. We both thought the Explorer was to big for us. We may actually look at the Escape as well. If it has the 2.0 turbo, it may actually be fairly peppy. We thought the Edge had sufficient power with the 2.0, though not overwhelming...
