What is the actual fuel consumption of the Edge?
2 Answers
Ford Edge's fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is 9.0 liters. Introduction to the Ford Edge: 1. The Ford Edge is a compact SUV under the Ford brand, with dimensions of 4585mm in length, 1882mm in width, 1688mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2710mm. 2. The Ford Edge's 2.0-liter turbocharged engine has a maximum power of 182kW and a maximum torque of 393 Nm. This engine features direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. It is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. 3. The front suspension of the Ford Edge uses a MacPherson independent suspension, while the rear suspension uses a multi-link independent suspension.
I often drive my Ford Edge, and after nearly two years, the real average fuel consumption is around 10L per 100km. During heavy traffic in the city, like rush hours in the morning and evening, it can spike to 12L or even higher because of frequent stops and starts, which really consumes fuel. On the highway, it’s much more fuel-efficient—maintaining a steady speed of 90-100 km/h can bring it down below 8L. Many factors affect fuel consumption, like my driving habits—I enjoy stepping on the accelerator for quick acceleration, which increases fuel usage. Low tire pressure or running the AC at high settings also adds extra fuel costs. I recommend regular maintenance, like cleaning carbon deposits, to help keep fuel consumption stable. Overall, the Edge’s fuel efficiency isn’t particularly low, but it offers strong power and a fun driving experience, so you have to accept this small trade-off. For long-term driving, choosing low-viscosity engine oil can also bring slight improvements.
