Across the world, mothers are known to be the engine of the family, and it’s no different in Nigeria. Mothers make things happen and keep all of us calm.
It is Mother’s Day on the 26th of March, and a time once again for husbands to spoil the loved mothers in their lives. And what better way to express heartfelt thanks than by surprising her with a chic SUV, one that will help her handle the demands of family and work life, without sacrificing on style and fun.
The all-new Edge is a sophisticated vehicle that delivers premium comfort, cutting edge technologies and advanced driving dynamics. Vehicles have become more than an instrument that gets you from point A to point B. Consumers, even more so mothers’, spend precious moments in their vehicles, be it a moment of meditation at the traffic light, be it with one’s children during the school run, perhaps on a global business call, or running errands around Lagos, or even on a family trip to Port Harcourt.
The typical mother – whether she lives in Lagos, Abuja or Kaduna – will undoubtedly love driving the all-new Edge. This beautiful vehicle will ensure that she steps out with the status she deserves as it meets her every need.
Here are three reasons why we reckon she would love the all-new Ford Edge:
There is an abundance of space – The all-new Edge boasts a comfortable, spacious interior. Luggage space is abundant, making those long road trips between Lagos and Ogun, or Ekiti to Osun easier than ever – even with the entire family along for the ride. Every inch of the Edge interior has been utilized to make the most of the available space. Rear seat passenger comfort is enhanced with class-leading second-row head room of 1 023 mm and shoulder room of 1 536 mm – greater than larger competitors. Front row passenger space is also among the best in class. Luggage capacity of 1 847 litres with the rear seats folded is among the largest in the segment, and additional stowage areas are located around the wheel arches.
Style, Comfort, Design – These elements are all important to the modern Nigerian woman. You sit like a queen in the all-new Edge – raised ground clearance enhances off-road capability, and delivers a higher seating position for a commanding view of the road. The various models include high quality leather that covers the arm rests, steering wheel, and gear knob (model dependent). Luxurious seating options, depending on model derivative, include cooled front seats that offer relief to occupants on hot days by directing cold air from the climate system through perforations in the seat leather. This all ensures mothers look and feel good in a Ford Edge.
Technology is a mother’s best friend – The tech savvy woman will appreciate features such as Ford’s voice activated SYNC®3 system which enables mothers to operate phone, entertainment and climate systems using simple conversational language. The Titanium and Sport models include a premium audio system from Sony featuring 12 speakers including a subwoofer for improved sound quality. Driver assist technologies include Active Noise Control technology, Adaptive Steering, and those that make parking easier including Perpendicular Parking Assist, Park-Out Assist, Side Parking Aid and Cross Traffic Alert.
The all-new Ford Edge, along with other Ford models, is distributed in Nigeria by Coscharis Motors.
