Ford enters performance SUV segment with Edge ST

The updated 2019 crossover, with its modern automotive paint job, is being offered in a new high performance Edge ST trim that replaces the Edge Sport in the lineup.

Developed by the same Ford Performance team responsible for vehicles like the F-150 Raptor and GT supercar, the Edge ST features a version the 335 hp twin-turbocharged 2.7-liter V6 shared with the upcoming Lincoln Nautilus, 8-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters for manual gear changes, standard all-wheel-drive, sport tuned suspension, and a set of deeply-bolstered seats to go with its aggressive bodywork.

Owners will even be able to spec it with an optional performance brake package and 21-inch wheels with sticky summer tires, suggesting that it is the type of vehicle you might actually want to take to the track someday.
