2010 ford edge Professional Edmunds ReviewSource: Edmunds...while it earned five stars in side impact testing for both front and rear passengers. In Insurance Institute for Highway Safety crash tests, the Edge scored the highest possible rating of "Good" in both frontal offset and side impact testing. In the past, the Edge suffered from truly appalling braking distances. A more recent switch in tires improved matters, and the Edge's 60-0 stopping distance is now a tolerable 134 feet. We still noticed significant fade after multiple panic stops, though, which is hardly confidence-inspiring. Opting for the Sport model with its bigger wheels and grippier... |

2010 Ford Edge Professional Cars.com ReviewSource: Cars.com...Exterior I've gone over the wheels, and as for the Sport's exterior body pieces, they have the effect of making the Edge look bigger. I put that down to the "lower edge" of the car being body-colored, rather than black (or dark gray) as other Edge models are. It's a matter of taste, of course, but I like the regular, smaller-looking Edge body more than those with the Sport body kit. Note that opting for the Sport model restricts your color choices to red, silver, blue and black.

Why should I also consider these?
Unlike most of its similar-size competitors, the 2010 Ford Edge doesn't have an available third row of seating.
But its interior is a more comfortable place for four (or up to five) than several of its competitors, especially the Murano and Tribeca.
The slight interior improvements and new SYNC system introduced on the '08 Edge help make the Ford more competitive against top peers such as the Highlander.
Relative to the Edge, the Tribeca and CX-9 are a little sportier on the road, with a slightly firmer suspension setting and crisper handling, while the Highlander and Veracruz have styling that's less exciting and possibly less offensive.
Premium fuel is recommended for several of the Edge's competitors, but cheaper 87-octane fuel is fine for the Edge.
The Mazda CX-9 is a rival to the Edge, which has a slightly sportier character, but the two share mechanical underpinnings.
