Drive it on your own roads
Rent first, buy later: a week with the Flex answers the big questions. Try the Flex on your commute, then decide. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.
Year and trim
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
Money matters
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $192.20 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
