Indeed, Ford has pondered an Edge RS

'Non-premium, ultra-superior' SUV could make another section

First Drive survey of the 2019 Ford Edge

Izarra Automotive - In light of our First Drive survey of the 2019 Ford Edge ST, analyst Luke stated, "This makes me think about whether there is even space for an Edge RS eventually." He's not the only one in considering that speculative. Amid the media dispatch in Park City, Utah, Motor Trend asked Ed Krenz, boss useful designer for Ford Performance, how he may work up an Edge RS. Krenz knew precisely what he'd do with what he called "somewhat of a void area vehicle," that would "make sort of that fragment of non-premium, ultra-elite SUVs."

Krenz spread out the simple piece of the appropriate response by recounting the formula for each RS show. His group "would need to bring more power ... [and] extra vehicle elements." Everything disgraceful would get a harder tune, bringing about "significantly more forceful tires, more forceful suspension setup, dynamic dampers, torque vectoring."

The startling piece of Krenz's answer came when he riffed on the possibility of a manual transmission. Opening with the entertaining modest representation of the truth, "I think there is unquestionably a manual transmission lovers gathering," Krenz at that point noticed how Ford has kept the manual light alive in the Mustang, and that "the Fiesta and Focus STs customarily have had that ability." He finished up by saying, "I believe we're going to take shortly, regardless of whether this fragment truly requires that." His specify of the Fiesta and Focus STs makes us think about whether he's solitary discussing a potential Edge RS display getting a standard gearbox, or if the Edge ST has some sort of moonshot chance at a manual if that boisterous fans gathering can make enough commotion.

Engine Trend mooted Ford's 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 as a conceivable power hotspot for still-simply dream Edge RS. That engine produces 375 pull and 470 pound-feet of torque in the Ford F-150, and 450 hp and 510 lb-ft in both the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor and Lincoln Navigator.

In light of Edge ST surveys, Ford should need to complete a touch all the more sharpening to the present offering before making an all the more intense stride. Yet, say that occurs, and the Edge ST acquires its identification: Would a 450-hp, bad-to-the-bone Edge RS follow-up — with a six-speed manual — put a little love in your souls?
