The very last the Ford Edge rolled off the assembly line at the Oakville Assembly plant in Canada back in early May, marking the true end of an era. In fact, between 2007 and 2024, Ford build a whopping 2,609,545 Edge crossovers, and even though the North American version has been officially discontinued, it remains quite popular with critics and consumers alike. There’s still time to find a new Ford Edge on dealer lots, too, though those numbers are beginning to dwindle.
According to FoMoCo’s most recent sales report, there were 17,800 new Ford Edge models is gross stock at the end of June, which seems like quite a lot. However, that figure is lower than almost every other Ford model, save for the Ford Ranger, Ford Mustang, and a few commercial-focused products like chassis cab models. A quick search at Autotrader essentially confirms this fact, as there are around 18,000 units available nationwide at the moment.
In its final month of production this past May, Oakville built 2,739 examples of the 2024 Ford Edge, which represented a 77 percent drop compared to April. For the entire year, a total of 54,178 examples of the Ford Edge rolled off the assembly line, all while sales decreased 37 percent in May but grew by 23 percent year-over-year.
After originally planning to build an all-electric three-row crossover at Oakville, The Blue Oval recently pivoted and will instead produce the Ford Super Duty at that plant starting in 2026, in addition to the Kentucky Truck plant and the Ohio Assembly plant. The automaker will invest $3 billion to make this happen, with $2.3 billion of that sum going toward retooling the Oakville plant for Ford Super Duty production, including the installation of both assembly and stamping equipment. This move will also add around 1,800 jobs at the Oakville plant, with 150 more joining the ranks at the Windsor Engine Complex to build V8 engines for the Super Duty as well.
