Should You Buy a Used Ford Edge?

For used buyers, the Ford Edge is an average bet for resale. The smartest pick is a 2019 (around $15,890) — it sits just past the steepest depreciation, so the first owner already absorbed the biggest loss. Favor the ST trim for the best resale, and always pull a vehicle-history report before buying.

Pros

  • Proven longevity — examples regularly list past 150,000 miles and still sell for around $9,724.
  • The ST trim holds its value best if resale matters to you.

Watch-outs

  • The steepest single-year drop hits between 2020 and 2019 — buying brand-new costs you that loss.

What Affects Ford Edge Resale Value

Value falls fastest from the 2020 to the 2019 model year — a 6.2%-point jump in a single year. That makes the 2019 Edge a value sweet spot — the previous owner absorbs the worst of the drop, and you still get a relatively recent car.

Trim matters: the ST holds its value best (about 55.8% average depreciation), while the Sport gives up the most (around 69.1%). Choosing the right trim can be worth thousands at resale.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best year to buy a used Ford Edge?

The 2019 Edge is the value sweet spot: it sits just past the model's steepest one-year depreciation drop, so the first owner has already absorbed the biggest loss. Expect to pay around $15,890 for a typical example, and the ST trim will hold its value best from there. As always, a well-maintained, accident-free example with average mileage for its age is worth paying a little more for than a cheap car with a questionable history. Whatever year you settle on, budget for a pre-purchase inspection — at a couple hundred dollars, it's the cheapest insurance against an expensive surprise down the road.

Which Ford Edge trim holds its value best?

The ST retains the most value, depreciating about 55.8% on average across model years in our data. Trim choice can swing resale by thousands of dollars over a few years, because desirable trims stay in demand on the used market while stripped-down or niche trims sell at a discount. It's also worth comparing the trim premium new versus used — a pricier trim sometimes depreciates enough to become the smarter used buy. If you expect to resell, the ST is the safer bet; if you're keeping the car long-term, buy the trim with the features you actually want and worry less about resale.

Methodology

Depreciation is computed from 1,200 real used-car listings. Each listing's asking price is normalized to a standard 12,000 miles per year for the vehicle's age, adjusted by a 5% asking-to-sale estimate, and compared against the original base MSRP for that VIN's trim. Headline 1/3/5-year figures reflect a smoothed retention curve fitted across all model years (the typical trajectory); individual years in the table above can run above or below it with market conditions.
