1. Performance
Performance is probably the first thing everyone pays attention to, as this parameter determines, how fast will you be able to go. Ford has a definitive win in this category.
While both of them have a front-wheel drive, Edge is equipped with a 245-horsepower intercooled turbo engine. Honda CR-V specs, while also impressive, are not so great – only 184-horsepower regular unleaded engine.
2. Fuel efficiency
This parameter basically points on how much money you will have to spend on gas. Honda wins a competition on this one, as it can drive for 30 miles on a 1 gallon of gas (compared to 24 mpg for Ford).
