“I love my Edge, it's so fun to drive and when you put it in Sport mode, it's really got some power. It's super smooth and easy to drive. I love the panoramic sunroof and how easy everything is to use. I can even fit my 10 ft kayak in it!”
2020 Ford Edge: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The biggest change for the 2020 Ford Edge is standard dual-zone automatic climate control on every trim. Ford also added the sport-styled ST-Line during the year, while the rest of the lineup largely carried over from 2019.
About the 2020 Ford Edge
2nd generation (2015-2024), second year after the 2019 refresh
Ford positions the Edge as a roomy, tech-focused two-row midsize SUV for buyers who want more comfort and features than a basic compact crossover, but without stepping up to a three-row vehicle. Its core appeal is simple: easy family usability, a quiet cabin, strong standard safety tech, and confident road manners. The lineup also gives shoppers a clear split between mainstream comfort trims and the much quicker ST performance version.
The 2020 Edge lineup ranges from the practical SE and comfort-focused SEL to the more upscale Titanium, which has leather-trimmed heated front seats and a 12-speaker audio system. ST-Line pairs sporty black exterior details with the regular 2.0-liter turbo engine, while the performance-focused ST has a 335-horsepower twin-turbo V6, standard AWD, and sharper suspension tuning.
What changed, by category
Styling
Ford added the ST-Line during the 2020 model year. It brings an ST-style grille, black lower body trim, 20-inch gloss-black wheels, and other sporty details, but uses the regular 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder engine rather than the ST’s V6.
Tech and comfort
Dual-zone automatic climate control became standard on every trim. Heated front seats became standard on SEL, while Titanium gained a standard heated steering wheel. ST made several previously optional conveniences standard, including wireless phone charging, remote start, a hands-free liftgate, an alarm, a garage-door opener, and an AC outlet.

“JUST DO IT! it is an amazing vehicle. Fun to drive yet practical and able to hold a lot of stuff!”
“I enjoy the Ford Edge a lot! Of course, being a larger vehicle, it uses more gas than my previous vehicle which is the only downside. The safety features have made up for that in lower insurance costs thanks to crash detection, blind spot sensors, and a very helpful backup camera. The Edge also has automatic cruise control, which has proved extremely helpful on long roadtrips. I'm very pleased with my purchase.”
