2011 Ford Edge Sports
Tuxedo Black and body-color accents combine to give the exciting Edge Sports its uniquely bold style.
The 2011 Ford Edge SEL includes a base cost of $30,995 with front drive and $32,845 with AWD.

This new interface includes three new display screens and also the capability to input commands for a number of audio, phone and navigation functions via voice or touch controls. Functioning, we've found it quite a good interface as well as an interesting rival to BMW's iDrive or Audi's MMI. But there's a steep learning curve involved; less tech-savvy drivers will require time for you to adjust.




2011 Ford Edge MyFord Touch
Equipped with the available new MyFord Touch™, a breakthrough driver connect technology, Edge will forever change the way you interact with your vehicle.
The 2011 Ford Edge has become a good pick for any midsize five-passenger crossover, particularly if you're keen on its styling and technological features. Nevertheless, we'd still recommend examining the sharper-driving Nissan Murano or even the family-friendly Toyota Venza. And when you'll need a third row of seats, there are more crossovers to look at. However that it's both innovative and rewarding they are driving, the most recent Edge finally lives as much as its name.




2011 Ford Edge seat five passengers
Edge seats five passengers, with the flexibility of lowering one or both of the rear seat backs for extra cargo space.
The 2011 Ford Edge is noticably because of its comfortable ride, which soaks in road irregularities well without feeling floaty along the way. Though its steering doesn't provide much road feel, the advantage nevertheless feels solid and secure. Sport models feel slightly sharper and much more agile, though their larger wheels degrade the quality of ride a little. Every 2011 Edge has additional acoustic insulation and also the result's an impressively quiet highway ride.




2011 Ford Edge voice activated navigation
Voice-activated Navigation System is available in Edge SEL, Limited and Sport models.

Ford Fairline




The Ford Fairlane was an car product offered in between 1955 and 1971 by the Ford Motor Business in North America. The title was taken from Henry Ford's estate, Honest Lane, close to Dearborn, Michigan.



More than time, the title referred to numerous various vehicles in various courses; the Fairlane was at first a full-size automobile but grew to become a mid-size automobile from your 1962 product yr. The mid-sized product spawned the Australian-built Fairlane in 1967, even though it was regarded as a big automobile there.

2011 Ford F-150




Ford will introduce its EcoBoost V-6 to the F-150 lineup. This fully modern dual-overhead-cam 3.5-liter uses two turbochargers and direct fuel injection. It debuted for model-year 2010 in several Ford/Lincoln products, notably the 2010 Ford Taurus SHO and 2010 Lincoln MKS sedans and 2010 Ford Flex crossover SUV. In those applications it makes 355-365 horsepower with 350 pound-feet of torque at around 1500 rpm. Speculation is that it’ll pack 400 horsepower and 400 pound-feet in the F-150. The idea is to furnish V-8 power with V-6 fuel economy. Ford sources say it the twin-turbo V-6 weigh something like 175 pounds less and be 15-20 percent more fuel efficient than the 2010 F-150’s top engine choice, a 320-horsepower 5.4-liter V-8.

Ford maintains the EcoBoost V-6 is suitable for moderately heavy towing duty, too. High tech means high cost, however, so the EcoBoost is likely to be the uplevel 2011 F-150 engine. The base choice would be Ford’s new dual-overhead-cam 5.0-liter V-8. Dubbed “Coyote,” this naturally aspirated engine is also slated for duty in the Ford Mustang. In the F-150, look for power ratings similar the EcoBoost V-6, but with conventional V-8 torque characteristics. Some reports suggest the 2011 F-150 may also become available with Ford’s new 6.2-liter V-8. All these engines will likely use a six-speed automatic transmission.

Introduction of the EcoBoost V-6 and the two new V-8s would represent a fully new engine lineup for the F-150. That roster for model-year 2010 consisted of three V-8s: a 248- and a 292-horsepower 4.6-liter and the 320-horsepower 5.4. Torque topped out at 320-pound feet on the 4.6s and 390 on the 5.4. Towing and payload ratings for 2011 should approximate 2010’s maximums of 11,300 pounds and 3,030 pounds, respectively. All 2011 F-150s will again come with anti-lock four-wheel disc brakes and Ford’s AdvanceTrac antiskid system. Two-wheel drive (2WD) will be the default setup, with all models available with a part-time four-wheel-drive system (4WD) that includes low-range gearing but is not intended for use on dry pavement.

All-New 2010 Ford C-MAX Revealed: Based on Next-Gen Focus, Offered in Two Body Styles

All-New 2010 Ford C-MAX Revealed: Based on Next-Gen Focus, Offered in Two Body Styles

UPDATE: Ford just came out with official photos of the five-seater version of the 2010 C-MAX minivan confirming that it will indeed be offered with the firm's new 1.6-liter EcoBoost direct injection four-cylinder petrol engine. Full details will be released during the Frankfurt Show press days.

We've just been tipped off that Ford will swipe the covers off the all-new 2010 C-MAX minivan by the end of this week as the automaker seeks to get some additional publicity before the world premiere of the model at the forthcoming Frankfurt show. The new compact-sized MPV is based on the next-generation Focus platform with its styling loosely inspired from the Iosis MAX concept car that was displayed at the 2009 Geneva Salon in March.

Ford has followed in the footsteps of Renault and Citroen with their respective Scenic / Grande Scenic and C4 Picasso models by developing two different body styles for the C-MAX, one for the five seater version and another one for the larger and more practical, seven seater model.

While we're patiently waiting for Ford to green light the release of the first official images, we've added a full set of spy shots of the seven-seater model. Unlike the base C-MAX with five seats and conventional rear-doors, the seven-seater version features a pair of sliding rear doors that promise to improve access to the rear seats.

It is believed that Ford will premiere its newly developed 1.6-liter Ecoboost turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine on the new C-MAX that will also be available with numerous other normally aspirated petrol and turbo diesel units.

The new Ecooboost engine will eventually make its way on other Ford models in Europe such as the Mondeo and the next-generation Focus range.

Sales of the new C-MAX models are expected to start in Europe in mid-2010.

As for North America, even though Ford has confirmed that the U.S. will get the all-new, next-gen Focus model in 2010, there's no word if the range will also include the C-MAX.
