On the outside, the Ford Edge and the Hyundai Tucson look remarkably similar. Both vehicles feature a sleek and sporty appearance.

When it comes to interior space, both vehicles are able to fit up to five occupants. However, the Edge offers slightly more headspace and legroom to comfortably accommodate taller passengers. The Edge also has a larger rear cargo area. With the back seats in an upright position, the Edge provides 39.2 cubic feet of cargo space; the Tucson only offers 31 cubic feet of rear cargo space. If you fold both seats down flat, you can create up to 73.4 cubic feet of interior cargo room in the Edge, and the Tucson only offers 61.9 cubic feet of space.
