DETROIT — Ford is adding a little Mustang to the Ford Edge crossover.
The automaker says that the 2011 Ford Edge Sport edition will have the same engine as the Mustang sports car.
The 305-horsepower V-6 engine will give the Edge Sport 40 more horsepower than the current model. But it will still have the same fuel economy thanks to the efficiency of the engine and other changes, including improvements to the vehicle's aerodynamics.
The Edge Sport has other sports-car touches, including paddle shifters on either side of the steering wheel for shifting gears. It also has new 22-inch aluminum wheels.
The Edge Sport goes on sale at the end of the summer. It will start at $36,220, or about $9,000 more than the base model Edge
