2023 Ford Edge vs. 2023 Chevrolet Traverse

The 2023 Ford Edge knows just what buyers need when they are looking for a midsize SUV. It fuses punchy engines with comfortable seating to make sure that the entire trip is always pleasurable for occupants. There is a long list of technologies to watch out for as well.

The 2023 Chevrolet Traverse takes much after its 2022 predecessor. This said, it is loaded with plenty of cargo and passenger space, and just like the Edge, it promises that you will love its punchy V6 engine option. A user-friendly infotainment interface is one for the books as well.

Design & Style

The 2023 Ford Edge focuses on being sleek and simple inside, but that does not mean that it does not offer much. In fact, if you look closely, you will appreciate its roomy seating arrangement for five. At the cargo area, you can easily fit in 39 cubes when all seats are occupied. Fold the back seats down, and that room is ready for 73 cubes instead.

The 2023 edition of the Chevy Traverse tries its best to look as good as the Edge in terms of design. It does that by offering soft touches, but the fact that there are hard plastics here and there make it quite a disappointment to many drivers out there. The SUV sits eights, but the back seats are best left for kids. In the back row, it opens 23 cubic feet of space with this configuration.

Technology & Safety

You will easily find the 2023 Ford Edge trendy because of its 12-inch vertical touch screen for its SYNC 4A infotainment setup. This is also fitted with four USB ports, six speakers, Wi-Fi hot spot, satellite radio, Android Auto, and Apple CarPlay. Amazon Alexa is also standard to the ride. There is a long list of driver aids awaiting you as well. Apart from having a rearview camera, it is also fitted with pedestrian detection, rear cross traffic alert, blind spot monitoring, and forward collision warning, among others.

The 2023 Traverse definitely has some points deducted in terms of technologies considering that it only uses a seven-inch touch screen, which can glare when sunlight strikes it. It is fitted with the same technologies as the ones found in the Edge, but misses out on Amazon Alexa. While it has a long list of driver aids, rear cross traffic alert and blind spot monitoring are not standard.

Performance

The base four-cylinder engine setup for the Ford Edge 2023 edition gets a score of 250 horsepower. Get a trim that includes the V6 engine, and results will increase to 335 horsepower. The V6 base engine configuration for the Traverse only yields 310 horsepower.

The Bottom Line

You will surely love the great combination of style, technologies and performance of the 2023 Ford Edge. If you have a small family, this is a much better option than the 2023 Traverse.
