In this context, "edge" refers to quality or factor. We can understand "modern edge" here to be a description of the van's modern style or design. You might have also heard of a similar adjective, "cutting-edge," which means ultra-modern, innovative, or pioneering. Ex: This house has a modern edge. Ex: The engineering technology is cutting edge.
