Ford Edge Towing Features

Two powerful engine options ensure that the Edge is never short on power, but safe and efficient towing takes something more. Available Intelligent AWD monitors traction and upcoming road conditions in real time, and responds by distributing torque to the wheels that need it most. Feature slike these are designed to keep you safe and your cargo steady while towing in West Columbia:

  • Class II Trailer Tow Package -  Opt for this available package to reach the maximum 3,500-pound Ford Edge towing capacity.
  • Hill Start Assist - If you’re towing up an incline, this feature automatically holds the brake as you move your foot from the brake to the gas to prevent rollback.
  • Traction Control - When engaged, this feature reduces throttle output to limit wheelspin.
  • Trailer Sway Control - For extra security while towing on difficult terrain, this system monitors conditions and applies the brakes and adjusts engine torque to enhance handling.

As you read above, the Ford Edge towing capacity will vary depending on the engine you choose. If you require the 3,500-pound maximum, you’ll need to upgrade with the available EcoBoost V6. Compare the Ford Edge engine specs here:
