Interior
I didn’t like the interior of the Edge either. The silver-and-black trim look a little chintzy, and the center stack is sparse-looking. Like I said, there’s no “edge” to the Edge.
My test car had two-tone seats; they’re black leather with a simulated suede insert in blue with blue contrast stitching. I can’t believe people pay extra ($525) for them. The Cookie Monster, oops, I mean Dark Ink Blue and black seats in my test Edge were too much. Call me a simple mountain girl, but I like my seats to be one color.
Two-toned or not, the seats were comfortable, so I’ll give them that. Additionally, there was a wealth of legroom both up front and in the second row, which made it easy to install my daughter’s rear-facing infant-safety seat. I sat down between my kids’ child-safety seats and there was room to spare, which is rare. The 60/40-split backseat also reclines, which helps when you’re installing a car seat or two. The cupholders are easy to reach, especially in the second row. They pop out of the second-row armrest. Love that!
The Latch connectors are buried in the Edge’s backseat. I lost a small diamond from my ring while trying to find the connectors. All I can tell you is that where there once were 10 tiny rocks on my right hand, there now are nine, but I’m not bitter.
Folding the rear seats is a breeze thanks to the easy-to-use-and-find lever and one-touch-folding button in the rear cargo area. Once you fold down the second-row seats, your cargo space more than doubles! I have no doubt you could haul some major cargo in this baby.
