Ford introduces top of the range Flex Titanium

By Patrick on 22.05.2010

The Ford Flex Titanium is the latest addition to the Flex lineup. The Flex is the first model to feature the Titanium series in North America. This nameplate strategy has been very successful in Europe, where most vehicle lines feature Titanium as the top-of-the-range model.

Next car to feature Titanium branding in all markets including North America is the next generation Ford Focus, in early 2011.

Flex Titanium is based off the Limited series with new features, and exterior and interior detailing. Titanium will feature four exterior color choices: Red Candy, White Platinum, Tuxedo Black and Ingot Silver. All are mated to a new Tuxedo Black two-tone roof as well as blackout treatment for headlamps and taillamps.

Continuing the theme, the beltline moldings, fog lamp bezels and side-view mirror skull caps are blackened while the liftgate appliqué is now black chrome. To finish off the exterior look, the 20-inch 10-spoke wheels are polished aluminum.

In addition to visual changes, there are a number of feature add-ons, including HD Radio and one-touch PowerFold and tumble third row options.

The Flex Titanium with front-wheel-drive (Duratec powered) is priced from $40,340, while the EcoBoost powered all-wheel drive model starts at $45,175.
