Available with six or seven seats, the 2018 Ford Flex is a versatile SUV. Blue Metallic and Ruby Red are among the nine exterior paint options for this family-friendly vehicle. The SYNC 3 infotainment system and Adaptive Cruise Control are some of the Flex's high-tech amenities.
Performance
The standard powertrain in the 2018 Ford Flex includes the 3.5 L Ti-VCT V6 engine, which is rated at 287 hp and 254 lb-ft of peak torque. Available in the Limited trim, the 3.5 L EcoBoost V6 engine comes with twin turbochargers that deliver a net output of 365 hp and 350 lb-ft of torque. Finding the right gear ratio for this Ford SUV is simple with the SelectShift automatic transmission system. The six fixed gear speeds transfer torque smoothly to a conventional front-wheel drive (FWD) or the signature Intelligent All-Wheel Drive. Pressurized by gas, the vehicle's shock absorbers are engineered to withstand harsh impacts for daily drives and off-road adventures. The Flex is also stabilized by the AdvanceTrac technology that's paired with the Roll Stability Control.
Interior
You can conveniently enter the 2018 Ford Flex just by having the MyKey in your hand or pocket. Thanks to the Intelligent Access technology, the ignition system starts with the push of a button. You and the front passenger can settle down on the 10-way power seats that are available with heating and cooling. Captain's chairs offer plenty of space for two passengers in the second row. You can also select a 60/40 bench seat to accommodate three occupants in the second row. Featuring four buttons, the PowerFold and Tumble system precisely controls the positions of the 50/50 bench seat in the third row, which is designed for two passengers.
Features
Your virtual concierge in the 2018 Ford Flex is the SYNC 3 infotainment system. Featuring a touch-screen menu and speech recognition, the vehicle's GPS navigation system includes 2-D maps and 3-D graphics. You can also subscribe to SiriusXM Traffic and Travel Link services to receive helpful information on the go. Additionally, a sound system by Sony is available to play chart-topping songs on SiriusXM Satellite Radio or HD Radio. Kids in the Flex's second and third rows could be entertained by dual headrest monitors that play DVDs.
Safety
You can set the 2018 Ford Flex to run on the Adaptive Cruise Control that's synced with automatic braking. When a front crash is imminent, you'll see flashing warnings in the head-up display (HUD) in the windshield. This Ford SUV also offers the ultrasonic-powered Active Park Assist that gives you extra confidence for parallel parking. The radar-based Blind Spot Information System is another accident-mitigation technology in the Flex.
