You can feel safe and confident while you're towing thanks to the trailer sway control feature. Trailer sway control monitors your stability and takes action when it notices you swerving or getting off balance. By applying precise braking pressure and reducing engine torque, it helps you maintain control of your vehicle so you can safely stay on the road. This package comes equipped with the factory-installed trailer hitch receiver options.

Available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive Capabilities

The Ford Edge comes with available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive which uses sensors to constantly monitor traction and help you through all different types of terrain. It balances torque between the front and rear wheels to enhance handling and maximize traction which allows you to safely and securely travel with your tow load. The electric power-assisted steering also helps you maintain complete control while you're towing. 

All-Wheel Drive is standard on the Sport model, and available on all the rest.

Interior Cabin Cargo Room

Before you even hitch up your trailer, the interior of the Ford Edge comes equipped with a large amount of interior cabin storage. You can get up to 73.4 cubic feet of cargo room behind the first-row seats when you fold the second row seats down. Available second-row EasyFold® seating allows you to fold down the seats at the simple touch of a button, so you can quickly and easily maximize your cargo space.
