Kia Sorento vs Ford Edge

Here at Kia of Coatesville, we’ve been getting a lot of questions about the Kia Sorento and the Ford Edge.

Most of these questions have been coming from the drivers around Coatesville, Downingtown, Gap, Lancaster, Reading, and Newark. So, in order to best serve you, we’ve written this article. Check it out…

State-of-the-Art Safety Tech

The best news about the Kia Sorento is that it offers both standard safety features and advanced driver-assistive safety systems. Let’s start with a look at some of the standard safety features that’ll protect you:

• Side Curtain Airbags
• Side-Impact Door Beams
• Front and Rear Crumple Zones
• Tire-Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
• Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS), 4-Wheel Disc Brakes

And that’s just the beginning! Now, let’s consider some advanced available driver-assistive safety systems:

• Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
• Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
• Driver Attention Warning (DAW)
• Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
• Forward Collision Avoidance (FCA) w/ Pedestrian Detection

On the other hand, it seems like the Ford Edge is also up to the task of keeping you, your family members, and your friends as safe as possible while you’re out there on the road. Some of its comparable safety technologies include an Individual Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), Side-Impact Airbags, a Lane-Keeping System (with both Lane-Keeping Assist and Lane-Keeping Alert), and a Forward Collision Warning.

Connectivity and Entertainment

However, to many, connectivity and entertainment feel just as important as safety. With the Kia Sorento’s standard 7.0” Touchscreen Display, you can access your compatible smartphone’s music and apps via either Android Auto™ or Apple CarPlay™. Then, when it’s time to actually enjoy that music, the advanced Harman/Kardon® 10-Speaker Surround Sound Audio w/ Clari-Fi™ technology will more than do the trick.

The Ford Edge’s SNYC® connectivity and entertainment suite will allow you to accomplish many of the same things. Furthermore, both vehicles give you the option of upgrading to SiriusXM® Satellite Radio, which can turn any commute into a breeze with dozens of channels of music, sports, talk, news, and more.

Interior: Plenty of Legroom

The Kia Sorento is also quite impressive when it comes to the amount of legroom that it provides you and your passengers: 44.1 inches in the first row, 39.4 inches in the second row, and 31.7 inches in the third row. On the other hand, the Ford Edge only gives you 42.6 inches of legroom in the first row (and it doesn’t even offer a third row of seats). Wouldn’t you rather go with the more spacious of the two SUVs?
