The 2012 Ford Edge for buyers
No 2012 Ford Edge is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. For anyone shopping for the 2012 Ford Edge, here are the facts that matter.
What to check on the Edge
In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
The numbers in plain words
It uses the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo and front-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
It is rated 9.8 L/100 km combined: about 29 litres every 300 km. That works out to about $15.19 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,800 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
The Edge in everyday use
An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length.
Who the Edge suits
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
A longer test drive
Rent the Edge first, and buy only if it fits your life. If the Edge is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.
Money matters
The EPA estimates US$2,800 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $151.90 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Picking a year and a trim
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
