The Ford Edge (http://www.autoblog.com/ford/edge/) gets an updated platform (http://www.autoblog.com/2014/06/24/2015-ford-edge-deep-dive-official/), bolder styling and a standard 2.0-liter turbocharged EcoBoost engine pumping out 245 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque for the 2015 model year. You might expect that all those new features would result in a big price bump, but you'd be wrong. Ford (http://www.autoblog.com/ford/) is keeping costs identical to the 2014 model (http://www.edmunds.com/car-news/2015-ford-edge-priced-at-28995.html) with a starting MSRP of $28,100 (*plus an $895 destination charge), according to Edmunds. Ford spokesperson William Mattiace confirmed the numbers to Autoblog.

That's a pretty good deal, but the real ticket here might be the model's Sport trim. Buyers get a 2.7-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 EcoBoost engine with over 300 horsepower and standard adaptive steering for $28,600 plus destination. That's just $500 more than the base model.

Pricing for the Titanium trim has not yet been announced, but it'll be a short wait to find out. Mattiace tells Autoblog that full pricing and the configuration for the model will launch on November 5. He has also confirmed that the 2015 Edge will begin hitting dealers in the first quarter of 2015.

The 2015 Edge is the first Ford in the US to come with a standard EcoBoost engine, although a more traditional naturally aspirated 3.5-liter V6 is also an option. All models come with a six-speed automatic, with the 2.0L EcoBoost available exclusively in front-wheel drive and the 2.7L and 3.5L models gaining optional all-wheel drive traction. The Sport and Titanium trims have active steering, and other tech upgrades include active grille shutters for select models and an air-curtain system to improve aerodynamics around the wheels. Look for even more details when the configurator comes online.2015 Ford Edge holds line on pricing, starts at $28,100* (http://www.autoblog.com/2014/11/04/2015-ford-edge-pricing-28100/) originally appeared on Autoblog (http://www.autoblog.com) on Tue, 04 Nov 2014 12:30:00 EST.
