Interior Noise
One of the more annoying ads for the Edge (directed by David Mamet) features two Edge drivers talking about how the Ford crossover is quieter than a Lexus RX 350. We think those sound meters should be rechecked. Noise isn’t bad in the Edge, but it’s not Lexus-quiet, either. Wind noise is notable, if not terribly intrusive, and tire noise is more pronounced than we expected. The engine is inaudible at idle or cruise, but it makes itself known under the slightest tickle of the throttle. None of this is too bad for the class and price, but Lexus? C’mon.
