Ford Reflex

Automobiles

The Ford Reflex, spelled REFL3X on the vehicle nameplate, was a concept car introduced at the 2006 North American International Auto Show that, according to Ford, proved small cars could be bold and American. It was a technological showcase that included solar panel-powered headlights, an integrated child seat, a baby cam with a monitor mounted on the dash, inflatable rear safety belts, and an interior quieted by ground rubber taken from Nike athletic shoe outsoles. It featured an advanced diesel-electric hybrid engine with new-generation lithium ion batteries that could help deliver up to 65 miles per US gallon of diesel fuel and accelerate the vehicle from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 7 seconds, with an electric motor on the rear axle providing all wheel drive. A production version of the Reflex design has never been announced.
