What is the 2020 Ford Edge Towing Capacity?

If you’re like a lot of our San Antonio customers, you work hard during the week and play hard on the weekends. That means you need a vehicle that can tow that ATV or small fishing boat around. Can the new 2020 Ford Edge towing capacity handle that? When properly equipped, the Ford Edge towing capacity maxes out at 3,500 pounds. Find out what it takes to reach this capacity with Northside Ford, below.

2020 Ford Edge Engine Options and Towing Capacities

There are two Ford Edge engine options for 2020. Both are powerful for their size, but if you’ve got regular towing to do around Converse, we recommend opting for the upgraded V6. Here are the specs you need to know:

Ford Edge Engine – 2.0L EcoBoost® I-4

• 245 hp
• 275 lb-ft of torque
• Ford Edge towing capacity: 1,500 pounds

Ford Edge Engine – 2.7L EcoBoost® V6

• 335 hp
• 380 lb-ft of torque
• Ford Edge towing capacity: 3,500 pounds (maximum)

Available Ford Edge Towing Features

It’s not just about engine size. Ford has made available several features that will help you tow safely on our New Braunfels roads. If you want to get the most out of the Ford Edge towing capacity, you’ll want to check out these awesome features.

• Intelligent All-Wheel Drive. This feature monitors the traction of each wheel and distributes power and torque between the front and rear wheels accordingly, ensuring both your SUV and your trailer always get proper traction.
• Class II Trailer Tow Package. This feature is necessary in order to hit the maximum Ford Edge towing capacity, when used with the all-wheel drive option.
• Trailer Sway Control. No one likes to look in the rear-view mirror to see their trailer swaying behind them. This feature monitors sway and reduces torque or even applies the brakes when needed to keep your trailer stable.
• Traction Control. This feature controls throttle to reduce wheelspin, which means you won’t have to worry as much about slipping or getting stuck.
• Hill Start Assist. Don’t worry about rolling backwards on that hill. This feature holds the brake when you move your foot from the brake to the gas.
