Trying to decide between the 2021 Ford Edge and Toyota RAV4? Then you’ve come to the right place. The team at Friendly Ford is here to show you how these two SUVs stack up against each other, so you can choose the right one for your Geneva, Canandaigua, and Rochester, NY, drives.
When you’re cruising to work in the morning, the drive will be much more enjoyable when you have the right blend of power by your side. To excite even early morning treks, the 2021 Ford Edge is available with the following powertrains:
The Toyota RAV4, on the other hand, only has one gas engine available. You may notice a difference when it comes to performance, too, since this motor falls short of even the baseline power of the Edge, with only 203 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque.
Bring your kids along for your thrilling ride with seating for five in both the 2021 Ford Edge and Toyota RAV4. However, your family may have a more enjoyable experience in the Edge with 113.9 cubic feet of passenger space, while the RAV4 only has 98.9 cubic feet to offer.
This spaciousness breaks down into the following dimensions:
Ford Edge
Front Headroom: 40.2 inches
Rear Headroom: 40.3 inches
Front Legroom: 42.6 inches
Rear Legroom: 40.6 inches
Toyota RAV4
Front Headroom: 37.7 inches
Rear Headroom: 39.5 inches
Front Legroom: 41 inches
Rear Legroom: 37.8 inches
As you can see, the Edge is much roomier than the RAV4, especially when it comes to rear legroom.
Wherever you decide to roam, you can rest assured you and your little ones will be out of harm’s way with standard Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking. This feature monitors the distance between your SUV and frontal obstacles to alert you when you’re too close. It can even apply the brakes as needed to help avoid impact.
The 2021 Ford Edge also comes standard with BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System) with Cross-Traffic Alert to keep an eye on the unpredictable road ahead. It lets you know when another vehicle is traveling in your side blind zones, so you can change lanes with confidence.
When reversing out of a crowded parking lot, it alerts you to approaching vehicles, so you can be on your way safely. While a comparable system is available in the Toyota RAV4, you’ll need to choose a higher trim level since it’s not a standard protection amenity.
If you’re looking for more power to ignite your Geneva, Canandaigua, and Rochester, New York, drives, along with extra space and protection for your family, then the answer is clear: Choose the 2021 Ford Edge over the Toyota RAV4.
