If you’re looking for a capable new SUV in the Naperville area, you might have come across the Ford Edge or Ford Escape. These excellent additions to the Ford lineup have been refreshed for 2022, and you can’t go wrong picking either one. But which one best suits your driving needs and lifestyle? River View Ford has everything you need to know comparing the 2022 Ford Edge vs. Ford Escape in the guide below.
One of the first things that drivers look at when shopping for a new vehicle is price, and the 2022 Ford Edge and Escape both offer a wide range. With gasoline, hybrid, and plug-in hybrid options across a number of unique trim levels, you’re sure to find something in the lineup that suits your budget. Check out the full price list:
If you’re purely after the most affordable choice, then the 2022 Ford Escape is the way to go. But don’t discount the 2022 Edge even if you’re on a budget–it makes up for its higher price tag with a more powerful engine and a roomier interior cabin. We’ll discuss both of these factors below.
The 2022 Ford Edge and Escape both offer impressive performance specs without sacrificing fuel efficiency. The 2022 Edge has, well, the edge when it comes to engine power, as befits its higher price tag, but the Escape compensates with better gas mileage numbers. No matter what, you’ll be getting a smooth, efficient ride around Montgomery in the SUV of your choice. Here are the full specs for performance and fuel economy:
Another major factor that SUV drivers consider when picking out a new ride is interior space. Both the 2022 Ford Edge and Escape can seat up to five passengers, and they both offer plenty of headroom and legroom across both rows. However, the larger Edge can accommodate more cargo space than the compact Escape, with the second row either up or folded. If cargo space is a priority for you–for example, if you’re planning on taking long road trips in your SUV that require a lot of luggage–the Edge may be the right choice for you. However, the Escape’s compact frame makes it a bit easier to maneuver around tight corners and into small parking spaces. Here are the full interior dimensions:
