Ford Motor Co. will unveil the 2011 Ford Edge at the Chicago Auto Show next week—its latest product freshening and the first to feature a new, four-cylinder version of its fuel-saving EcoBoost engine, The Detroit News reported.
The latest version of Ford’s popular mid-size crossover also will be the first to feature the company’s new MyFord Touch system, which replaces most of the traditional analog gauges, switches and knobs with full-color computer screens and touch-sensitive buttons, the paper said.
The body of the Edge is new from the windshield forward, but the biggest change is under the hood, the story said. In addition to the current 3.5-liter V-6, the 2011 model will offer a 2.0-liter four-cylinder EcoBoost that delivers the same power as a 3.0-liter V-6 with significantly better fuel economy, sources familiar with Ford’s plans told the paper.
