A 3.5L twin-turbo EcoBoost engine is a new premium option (AWD only, SEL models and above), with the power of a V-8 (355 hp, 350 lb-ft) and V-6-comparable fuel economy. Also new are the tilt/telescoping wheel, auto-folding second row, paddle-shift transmission (with EcoBoost), trailer-sway control, and Active Park Assist.
COOL FACT: The Flex is available with a second-row refrigerator.
