Ford claims its redesigned Fusion was the best-selling domestic car in 2009, and feels very confident in its abilities going forward.
The current 2011 model features:
- bold, aggressive attitude
- well-judged suspension, braking and steering systems
- Much of the interior features a soft-touch skin that looks and feels upscale
- Seats have plenty of side support and the coverings are also richer in appearance
- The gauges are well lit using an easy-to-read three-dimensional effect
- Ambient lighting that brightens up the footwells and floor-console.
- Capless fuel-filler system automatically opens and closes when you insert and then remove the pump nozzle.
- The optional blind-spot warning system puts lights in the side mirrors to warn of approaching traffic
- SYNC, Ford's voice-activated communications system, operates cell phones, audio programming, vehicle diagnostics and emergency-call placement.
- Ford claims the Fusion Hybrid achieves 4.6/5.4 l/100 km, city/highway.
It can comes in a variety of engine sizes like:
- The base 175-horsepower 2.5-litre four-cylinder remains in most models
- Or the optional 3.0-litre V6 returns with 240 horsepower
- The all-wheel-drive Sport model features a class-competitive 263-horsepower 3.5-litre V6
- The Hybrid combines a 156-horsepower 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine with a 106-horsepower electric motor for a net output of 191 horses.
