An all-new model for 2009, the 2010 Ford Flex receives two major updates: an entry-level SE trim line that brings down the starting price, and a new optional EcoBoost engine, which uses turbochargers and direct fuel injection to provide the power of a V8 with the fuel economy of a V6. All models also receive a power release on the second-row bench seat, and MyKey, which allows the owner to set limits on the vehicle for younger drivers.
The Flex is available with a 3.5-litre Duratec V6 engine, or with the new 3.5-litre EcoBoost V6 with twin turbochargers and direct injection. Both use a six-speed automatic transmission. The SE, SEL and Limited come in front-wheel drive, while the SEL and Limited can be optioned with all-wheel drive. The Limited EcoBoost comes in all-wheel only.
Features on the SE include 18-inch painted alloy wheels, air conditioning, body-colour door handles, fog lamps, automatic headlamps, black power mirrors, CD/MP3 stereo, six-way driver and two-way passenger manually-adjusted seats, fold-flat front passenger seat, second-row 60/40 split bench seat, third-row fold-into-floor 50/50 bench seat, MyKey, auxiliary rear climate control, tire pressure monitoring system, auto-dimming rearview mirror, power locks with keyless entry, floor mats, front-row centre console, second- and third-row reading lights, message centre with trip computer, outside temperature display, compass, overhead console, auto up/down driver's window, tilt steering column, privacy glass, cruise control, reverse sensing system, SecuriCode invisible keypad, speed-sensitive intermittent wipers, and two-speed rear wiper.
