福特已经更新了2019锐界，给这款SUV一个新的面孔。在这个系列的顶配车型，有一个新的ST装饰，使锐界具有更强大和更具侵略性的外观。2019锐界继续搭载福特的2.0升涡轮增压四缸引擎，但现在的功率为186千瓦/250马力，比去年提高了4千瓦/5马力。搭配八速自动变速器，挡把上增加了两个挡位，而福特则承诺提高燃油经济性。为了提高安全性，该车型配备了更多的标准驾驶辅助，包括前方碰撞警告，预碰撞辅助，盲点监控，车道保持辅助和自动远光灯。锐界现在全部标配LED头灯。重新设计的前脸的外形比现款更平滑，外观更平整。在后方，福特在掀背车的玻璃下方增加了一条黑色条纹，在那里增添了一个更有视觉冲击力和更具吸引力的美感车尾。追求更强大动力的消费者可以选择福特在SUV上首次使用ST性能品牌。与现有的运动型装饰一样，动力来自2.7升双涡轮增压V6引擎，但是现在可以达到250千瓦/335马力和380磅-英尺（515牛米）的扭矩，而现款是235千瓦/315马力和350磅-英尺（475牛米）。八速自动变速器替代ST中的六速，四轮驱动标配。改进后的悬挂采用了更具侵略性的设置，该车同时可选装升级版制动系统。ST看起来与其他产品有所不同，包括格栅中的网状物，与福克斯ST上的相呼应。更低的侧裙和双排气口的调整加上后保险杠也具备了运动气息。福特还未公布2019款锐界价格。
Ford Refreshes 2019 Edge, Launches 335-HP ST Model
Ford has refreshed the 2019 Edge by giving the crossover a new face, updated rear, and a boost in power to the base model. At the top of the range, there's a new ST trim that turns up the heat on the existing Sport by giving the hottest Edge more powerful and a meaner look.
The 2019 Edge continues to use Ford's 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, but it now makes 250 horsepower (186 kilowatts) – a 5-hp (4-kW) improvement over last year. An eight-speed automatic puts two more gears at driver's disposal, and Ford promises an improvement in fuel economy. Rather than a traditional stick-shaped gearshift, there's now a rotary knob. For improved safety, the model comes with more standard driver assists, including forward collision warning, pre-collision assist, blind-spot monitoring, lane-keep assist, and automatic high beams.
The Edge has a fresh face, too. There's revised styling for the bars in the grille, and full LED headlights are now standard. A redesigned hood has a more contoured appearance than the current, rather flat styling there. At the rear, Ford adds a black strip of trim below the hatchback's glass, which adds a more visually interesting, two-tone aesthetic back there.
Customers looking for a little more muscle can check out Ford's first use of its ST performance branding on a crossover. Like the existing Sport trim, power comes from a 2.7-liter biturbo V6, but it now makes 335 hp (250 kW) and 380 pound-feet (515 Newton-meters) of torque, versus 315 hp (235 kW) and 350 lb-ft (475 Nm) currently. The eight-speed auto replaces the six-cog unit in the ST, too, and all-wheel drive comes standard. A revised suspension with more aggressive settings accompanies these upgrades, and the Blue Oval offers upgraded brakes as an option.
The ST looks a little different than the rest of the lineup, including mesh in the grille that echoes the piece on the Focus ST. Lower side skirts and a tweaked rear bumper with dual exhaust outlets also communicate the model's sporty intentions. Inside, the seats receive thicker bolsters.
Ford hasn't disclosed pricing or availability of the 2019 Edge, yet. Expect more details to come out at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit.
