> 2012 Flex Features: Style

Flex personifies advanced, forward-thinking style and design. It's the crossover from Ford.

The four deep grooves on the bodysides are like character lines, setting the tone for the clean, linear look and feel that sets Flex apart.

Flex comes with 17" painted aluminum wheels on the SE model, 18" machined aluminum wheels on SEL, 19" polished aluminum wheels on Limited, and 20" polished aluminum wheels on the Titanium model. Stylish 20" bright painted aluminum wheels are also available on EcoBoost and Limited models. They're all designed to deliver a smooth, comfortable ride, and confident handling capability.

The clean, linear look and feel of Flex begins, fittingly, up front with the signature Ford 3-bar chrome grille and carries through to virtually every facet of its bold, innovative design. A black chrome grille with unique badging distinguishes the Titanium model.

Select the two-tone roof option and go for a customized look. Choose White Suede or striking Ingot Silver. The Titanium model roof is Black. Go ahead and pick one. It's perfectly okay to stand out from the ordinary crowd.

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.
