Ford has previewed a longer, seven-seat version of its Edge crossover, tailored specifically for the Chinese market. Making its world premiere at the Guangzhou Auto Show, the new three-row Ford Edge offers full seven-seat capability for customers in China.

This new version of the Ford Edge will be manufactured locally by Changan Ford starting in 2015 and sold through the joint venture’s dealerships. Compared with the global version of the Edge unveiled in June in Detroit, the Edge for China adds a third row of seating and other features “tailored specifically to the needs of customers in China.”

While Ford doesn’t mention dimensions, the seven-seat Edge is longer than the five-seat version, which is obvious when comparing the two vehicles’ third lateral window, considerably longer on the China-spec model.

Oddly, this improves the proportions of the Edge considerably. Would not expect a longer greenhouse to do that but that famous Edge 'egg' shape could only be improved.

IMHO more proof that cars are to short to look good and a LOT of these Chines L versions looking better\

Gets a "meh" from me, too. The Highlander looks better to my eyes:

Looks like a completely different vehicle in this form. May not look as strange if we weren't already use to the standard Edge. Would like a better shot of the rear end. Would be interesting to compare this to the Explorer dimensionally.
