| Road Test |
The Edge bowed last year as a mid-size, four-door, five-passenger crossover--a tall utility vehicle that’s quite carlike in its performance. The 2008 Ford Edge comes standard with a 3.5-liter, 265-horsepower engine and a six-speed automatic transmission, and it offers front-wheel drive or an available all-wheel-drive system.
