## Ford Edge ST

This car uses artificial intelligence technology to improve traction and reduce fuel consumption.

Here are some of the features I really like about this SUV:

### **All-Wheel Drive Disconnect**

The [Ford ](https://daysofadomesticdad.com/the-all-new-2017-ford-raptor/)Edge ST is available with all-wheel drive disconnect for better traction. The disconnect also switches from AWD to two-wheel drive for improved fuel economy. The system uses a form of artificial intelligence with high-tech sensors that can calculate faster than human response. It interacts with the traction control system to detect wheel slip, receiving inputs from the anti-lock brakes to learn if that system is active.

### **Windshield Wiper Sensors**

In addition to the quick responding all-wheel drive disconnect, the sensors check to see if the windshield wipers are on. This can assist in the [car](https://daysofadomesticdad.com/the-ford-ecosport-vs-the-ford-mustang-mach-e-which-ones-right-for-me/) switching between AWD and two-wheel drive for optimal power.

Edge ST features superior handling and braking, ST-tuned sport suspension, Sport Mode, new quick-shifting 8-speed transmission, standard all-wheel-drive, and the most powerful V6 engine in its class.

### **Automatic Transmission**

The new 8-speed automatic transmission introduces two overdrive gears. This decreases the engine rpm for improved fuel economy during highway cruising. The active transmission warm-up uses reclaimed heat energy to warm up the transmission more quickly. Along with a durable, synthetic, ultra-low-viscosity fluid component, friction is reduced to further help save fuel.

### **Auto Start and Stop**

The [Ford Edge](https://daysofadomesticdad.com/what-is-the-st-line-of-the-ford-edge/) ST offers a standard auto start-stop feature also helps to conserve fuel by shutting off the engine when the vehicle comes to a stop. The engine automatically restarts when the driver releases the brake pedal. Deceleration fuel shut-off stops fuel flow to the engine when the vehicle is reducing speed.

### **Exhaust Gas Recirculation**

The exhaust gas recirculation feature reduces harmful emissions. It also increases efficiency by allowing a larger throttle position. This reduces pumping losses. I like this because it helps to better protect the environment.

### Basically, the Ford Edge ST is a roomy SUV that offers better gas mileage, fuel economy, and a cleaner output of harmful emissions. Estimated EPA fuel economy is 21 city and 29 highway – pretty nice for a car that can seat up to 5\.
