Natural lighting covers all three rows of seats, with the available multipanel Vista Roof® . A power moonroof covers the first row, the second row features two ample skylights and the third row offers a single large skylight. Includes power sunshades.
2018 Ford Flex provides standard seven-passenger seating capacity, plus available amenities such as the one-touch PowerFold® and tumble third-row seat. And just as Flex is big on interior room for passengers and cargo, it is also big on comfort and convenience. The available heated steering wheel, heated and cooled front seats, dual-zone electronic automatic temperature control, available power-adjustable pedals, power tilt/telescoping steering column and available heated power-folding mirrors all add up to a more comfortable driving experience.
Flex features lots of smart storage space. Simply fold the third-row seats flat for 43.2 cu. ft. of room. Fold the second-row seats flat for a total of up to 83.2 cu. ft. A first-row console, first and second-row door storage pockets, map pockets behind the first-row seats, third-rowstorage in the armrests and a large lockable glove compartment allow for storing smaller items. There are also up to 12 cup and bottle holders.
MyKey technology, standard in every 2018 Ford Flex, lets you program individual keys so that two members of a household can share a car. You can designate a key to operate special features, such as restricting the vehicle’s top speed to 65, 70, 75 or 80 mph and limiting the entertainment system’s audio to 44 percent of maximum volume. It also provides a warning when the fuel tank reaches 75 miles to empty, allows the owner to select speed alert chimes at 45, 55 or 65 mph, and sets the Belt-Minder® to chime, while muting the audio system, until the safety belt is buckled.
Put the vehicle in reverse and the standard rear view camera automatically displays the image of what’s behind your vehicle as you’re slowly backing up . Backup assist grid lines make it easy to navigate in reverse. Shown on the available 8-inch center-stack screen.
Intelligent AWD sensors balance torque between the front and rear wheels to enhance handling and maximize traction, typically before wheelslip can even occur. This helps keep the vehicle sure-footed in a variety of conditions — such as slippery surfaces. Available on the SEL and Limited. Standard on the Limited when equipped with the available 3.5L EcoBoost® engine.
