Quick View: The Ford Fusion


Ford, in its mission to once again lead the US car industry, applied all its brainiac thinking to how it could build the world’s most awesome car, and won nearly 500 patents in the process. The carmaker has placed big bets on three aspects of car design: fuel-efficiency, use of recycled or sustainable parts, and beautiful design.
Recently Ford re-introduced the Fusion, a sedan that takes this new mantra to heart: It’s interior is sustainable and highly styled; it’s engine options offer great gas mileage, and it’s exterior is elegant and sophisticated.
First, the Fusion is offered as a driver’s car: multiple engine options allow buyers to choose performance or gas mileage: the hybrid gets up to 47 miles per gallon city or highway, while the EcoBoost option achieves both good gas mileage and performance at high speeds.

But Fusion is also a car that will make you feel good: It’s gorgeous, it’s smart, and it’s intuitive. Its interior is sublime and understated, with chrome accents that and instrument and media panel icons in cool colors that don’t scream “look at me!” It has three charge ports, a USB port, it can download apps from your phone, it can type texts for you, and it won’t actually do your nails but it will help you to book your appointment and guide you to the nearest salon.

Pricing starts at about $21,000; with all the luxury and fuel-saving options, the Fusion tops out at about $34,000.
