Seven features for parents and children in the Ford Edge 

Whether you’re looking for a safer vehicle or one with more comfort and convenience features, the Ford Edge could be a good fit. Check out these seven family-friendly features on the 2023 model.  

  • Spacious Five-Seating Capacity: The Ford Edge comes with a spacious five-seating capacity. This means there’s enough room for parents and up to three children or additional passengers, making it a practical choice for family outings and carpools. 
  • Generous Cargo Space: With a whopping 2,077.9 liters (or 73.4 cubic feet) of cargo space when the rear seats are folded down, the Ford Edge offers ample room for strollers, sports equipment, groceries, luggage, and more. This spacious cargo area means you have enough space to accommodate all your family’s belongings for trips and daily errands. 
  • Child Door Locks: Child door locks are an essential safety feature for families with young children. They prevent curious little hands from accidentally opening the rear doors while the vehicle is in motion, so your kids stay safely inside the vehicle at all times. 
  • LATCH System: The Ford Edge is equipped with the LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) system, which simplifies the installation of child safety seats. This system makes it easier for parents to secure car seats properly. 
  • Multiple Cupholders: The Ford Edge has eight cupholders strategically placed throughout the cabin. This feature is incredibly convenient for families on the go, as it allows everyone to have a designated spot to keep their drinks without worrying about spills. 
  • Advanced Safety Features: In addition to child safety features, the Ford Edge also comes equipped with advanced safety technologies like adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, blind-spot monitoring, and automatic emergency braking. These features provide extra protection for your family while on the road. 
  • User-Friendly Infotainment System: The infotainment system in the Ford Edge is user-friendly, with a touchscreen display and smartphone integration features like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. This allows parents to easily connect their devices, stream music, and access navigation, making the ride more enjoyable for everyone.
