It's not exactly based on the Ford Edge. The chassis is a modified LR2/Freelander which is actually a heavily revised Ford Mondeo/Contour/Mercury Mystique platform (yes it's that old).
The engine is from Ford, the 2.0L Ecoboost from the Focus bumped up to 247hp. But AFAIK, the electronics are not sourced from Ford.
