Its bold presence is a wakeup call to your senses. Beginning with the
unmistakable chrome grille that continues its linear design around Flex in the
form of four distinctive grooves. The all-black greenhouse design with privacy
glass seamlessly ties the body together with the roof, but it's the available
two-tone top that gives you the option to reflect some personal style. Want an
Ingot Silver roof with a Tuxedo Black body? Well then, you've got good taste.
The "greenhouse" is a term automotive designers have used to refer to a
vehicle's windows, the vertical pillars separating them, and the roof. The
unique all-black Flex greenhouse, with privacy glass on the 2nd- and 3rd-row
windows and liftgate, seamlessly ties together the body and roof, an effect that
is all the more striking with the available two-tone
roof.
The 2009 Flex earned the highest government crash test
ratings in frontal- and side-impact crash tests, from the NHTSA. So it's no
surprise that Flex was also named a "Top Safety Pick" by the IIHS. With advanced
features like available All-Wheel Drive and a standard anti-lock brake system
that includes AdvanceTrac® with Roll Stability Control?, Flex is engineered to
help keep you safe and in control.
Flex is loaded with smart
technology. Access the contacts on your mobile phone, navigate your MP3 player,
and make calls - all hands-free with available Ford SYNC®. Know where
you are in another state, or in your own driveway with the available voice-
activated Navigation System with Rear View Camera and SIRIUS Travel Link?.* And
never leave the gas cap off again with the Easy Fuel? capless fueling system,
which helps reduce evaporative emissions. Smart indeed.
2010 Ford Flex can fit seven
people, or six if you opt for the available second row 40/40 reclining bucket
seats. And yet, there's still plenty of room for storage and stretching of legs.
The independent rear suspension soaks up bumps and potholes so you don't have
to. While extensive wind tunnel testing helped us pinpoint noise sources -
resulting in a new door inset design and the use of advanced sound-deadening
materials. We suggest a test-drive to not hear the results for
yourself.
