Nicksterr Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Searched for a thread, but didn't see anything on this topic. I'm not sure as to Ford's timing approach for the Edge model years (e.g. you can buy '17 Escape now), but has anyone heard of any changes coming to the 2017 Edge model? Fog lights, tow pkg for the sport maybe? Auto emergency braking? Considering making a purchase now for the Edge sport, but also don't need a new vehicle and can wait until well into the next model year. Thanks in advance.

akirby Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Ford doesn't follow any set timetables for releasing new model year vehicles. Whenever the vehicle is ready it gets released. Might be February, might be December. And it always gets the next calender year designation no matter when it appears (like the 2017 Escape).

NYT Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 Does anyone know what, if any, changes are being made to the 2017 Edge? Price, features, colours, improvements, etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 Not until the order guide shows up which is still a couple of months away. No big changes expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicksterr Posted July 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Nobody has any info? Either Ford is changing nothing or there is a slight refresh under wraps... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 (edited) Several websites offer their opinion based on people they have talked with: http://carpreview.com/ford/edge/2017/previews Here's (supposedly) a pix of prototype: http://releasedatesnewcars.com/2017-ford-edge/ As per rumor website, mostly the same as 2016, some new colors, new grill and front end design, different engine for Euro exports. (Link above). About what you would expect with a mid cycle design. As one site put it, if your wondering if you should go with a 2026 or wait fir the 17, go with the 16 as no real advantage with the 17 (advanced sync stuff will be made available for the 16) and there will be a price increase. 18 is expected to start a new Cycle.

Nicksterr Posted July 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 (edited) I really wish we could get the Euro front - I like the DRL/turn signal light placement much better and it has fog lights as well. I think it looks better in general. Edited July 21, 2016 by Nicksterr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
