The 2018 Ford Flex is a versatile full-size crossover, offering ample passenger and cargo space. It has two engine choices, a base 3.5L V6 that churns out 287 horsepower, and a turbocharged model rated at 365 horsepower. Both are mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission and offered with front-wheel or all-wheel drive. Incorporating 3-row seating, the Flex comes in SE, SEL, and Limited trims. Standard safety features include stability and traction control with anti-lock brakes and a rearview camera, while blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert is offered as an upgrade. Infotainment-wise, the Flex boasts Sync 3 system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto in some trims. The distinct boxy design makes the 2018 model stand out, although there were no substantial changes from the previous year.
