2022 Ford Edge vs. 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe

If you're seeking for a capable mid-size SUV with a stunning appearance and excellent performance, the 2022 Ford Edge is a fantastic choice. This one is a great choice due to its superb ergonomics.

What new features will the 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe include to the current list of standard amenities? To assist you in making a more educated choice, we will compare these two automobiles.

Design & Style

The Edge Titanium/ST includes optional adaptive headlights that automatically brighten around turns by sensing vehicle speed and steering wheel angle to aid drivers in seeing further while negotiating curves. Cornering lights are not offered on the Santa Fe.

The standard rearview mirror and side view mirrors for the Edge SEL/ST-Line/ST/Titanium both offer an automatic dimming function. These mirrors may be programmed to immediately darken when headlights shine on them, protecting the driver from being blinded or distracted. Although the Santa Fe has an automated rearview mirror, its side mirrors do not automatically dim.

People with differing temperature preferences won't have to compromise thanks to the Edge's standard dual zone air conditioning, which lets the driver and front passenger choose two whole distinct settings. This provides the best possible comfort for the driver and front passenger. On the Santa Fe, dual zone air conditioning is an added expense; it is not offered on the SE model.

Technology & Safety

The Edge is equipped with standard Post Collision Braking, which automatically applies the brakes after a collision to help avoid more crashes and injuries. In the case of a collision that activates the airbags, more accidents are conceivable without the protection of airbags that may have already deployed since the Santa Fe lacks a post collision braking system.

All-Wheel Drive is a feature that comes standard on the Edge to provide drivers the most traction and stability possible. But on the Santa Fe, it is more expensive.

Pretensioners, which tighten the seatbelts and remove potentially harmful slack in the case of a crash, and force limiters, which regulate how much pressure the seatbelts can apply to the occupants, are both included in the Ford Edge's front and rear seat shoulder belts for increased safety. Rear seat belt pretensioners are not available in the Hyundai Santa Fe.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration rigorously examines brand-new vehicles for frontal and side accidents. Overall, these tests showed that the Hyundai Santa Fe fared worse than the Ford Edge, indicating that Santa Fe drivers are more likely to suffer severe injuries in an accident.

Performance

Up to 250 horsepower are produced by the Ford Edge's standard 2.0 turbo 4-cylinder engine. The standard 2.5 DOHC 4-cylinder engine in the Santa Fe can only produce a maximum of 191 horsepower.

The Bottom Line

The 2022 Ford Edge exceeds its rivals in every single area, notably in terms of technology, although each car has its own distinctive features. Do you still have any reservations regarding the capabilities of this midsize SUV? You'll likely like it just as much as those who are already motivated, in our opinion.
