TO THE POINT What's New? Based on the Fusion platform, the 2007 Edge is an all-new crossover vehicle from Ford.
Selling Points: Capable powertrain, inoffensive styling, spaciousness, intelligent interior design, optional glass roof
DealBreakers: Transmission lacks a manual or sport mode, no available third row seat.
Our Advice: The Edge is worth a look for buyers seeking a comfortable five-passenger crossover with little sporting character.

Click to enlarge. 2007 Ford Edge Model Mix The 2007 Ford Edge is available in front- or all-wheel-drive SE, SEL, and SEL Plus trims, priced between $25,995 and $31,395.

Ford offers the 2007 Edge in three trims: SE, SEL, and SEL Plus, each of which can be ordered with standard front-wheel drive (FWD) or optional all-wheel drive (AWD) for $1,650. Priced at $25,995 including a $675 destination charge, the SE FWD is the least expensive Edge available, yet includes basic features such as power windows, mirrors, and locks; keyless entry; 17-inch alloy wheels and 235/65 all-season tires; air conditioning; and a sound system complete with a CD/MP3 player and iPod jack. There's also cruise control, a tilt and telescoping steering wheel, as well as front side and side curtain airbags. Several options are available, such as roof rails, a cargo organizer, Sirius satellite radio, and a four-speaker premium sound system with a six-disc CD changer. Option packages include a Convenience Group with automatic headlights, a door keypad, and an automatic dimming rearview mirror; and a Class II towing package featuring electrical and cooling upgrades.

Next up is the Edge SEL, priced at $27,990 in FWD trim and $28,640 with the AWD badge. This mid-level model enjoys a standard key pad on the driver's door, a six-disc CD changer, upgraded cloth versus the SE's basic cloth, and a power-adjustable driver's seat. In addition, the pricier SEL is equipped with fog lights, a leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio controls, chrome and alloy interior trim, a compass, and an automatic dimming rearview mirror. And then there are the SEL's options, which include the Premium Package with dual-zone climate control with buttons on the steering wheel, heated front seats with driver memory, heated mirrors with memory, and leather upholstery; a seating package which features a folding front passenger seat and a power folding rear split seat; and a rear DVD system with wireless headphones and an overhead screen. When a Panoramic Vista Roof is ordered (a huge front sunroof with a fixed glass panel over the rear passengers), the overhead screen is exchanged for smaller units in the rear of the front headrests. Also available are a navigation system, a nine-speaker Audiophile sound system, a reverse sensing system, and 18-inch chrome or finished alloy wheels rolling on Continental Cross Conta GT 245/60 tires.

Poised at the top of the 2007 Ford Edge lineup is the SEL Plus, which carries a sticker price of $29,745 as a front-driver and $31,395 when the all-wheel-drive system is added. Unique standard features include heated mirrors, dual-zone climate control, leather seats, heated and power-adjustable front buckets, the power folding rear split bench, and an automatic dimming rearview mirror with an integrated compass. Options mirror those of the Edge SEL.
