Honda CR-V vs Ford Edge: Fuel Efficient Engineering

When designing a great everyday vehicle, you want an engine that will be able to go easy on the fuel. Luckily, the Ford Edge provides us with a great standard Twin-Scroll 2.0L EcoBoost® I4 engine. With up to an EPA-estimated 22 city/29 highway MPG, you can expect to travel far without having to stop for more gas.

The Honda CR-V goes a bit further in this regard, though by providing us with a standard 2.4L Inline 4-cylinder engine. This powertrain is designed to maximize fuel efficiency with an impressive EPA-estimated 26 city/32 highway MPG¹ with the LX trim and front-wheel drive.

In order to ensure that your driving habits minimize your fuel usage, there is additionally a standard Eco Assist™ System aboard the Honda CR-V. This feature monitors your driving habits and it provides a green ring around your speedometer to let you know you’re driving as efficiently as possible.

Advanced Seating Technology

Who doesn’t want to feel comfortable when spending extended periods of time in the car? The Ford Edge provides exceptional comfort with the help of its available 10-way power adjustable driver’s seat. This will allow you to create your ideal seating position so you can relax comfortably.

However, if you choose to look at the Honda CR-V, you’ll be treated to an available 12-way power adjustable driver’s seat with 4-way power lumbar support. With many more points of articulation within your chair, you’ll be equipped to achieve the ideal level of comfort to keep you driving for miles.

Spacious Cargo Dimensions

Sometimes we need plenty of space to load up our vehicle with all of our cargo. The Ford Edge is equipped with up to 39.2 cubic feet of cargo volume behind the second row. If you choose to fold down the second row of seats, you’ll expand that volume up to 73.4 cubic feet.

Open up the back of the Honda CR-V and you’ll be pleased to find that this SUV also offers 39.2 cubic feet of cargo volume behind the second row. Once you fold the second row of seats though, that volume expands even more to up to 75.8 cubic feet of volume. If you need more space to load up cargo, the Honda CR-V is the choice for you.
