Detailed review: |
Needed a car for our daughter. Traded in our 2001 Durango getting 11 MPG on a good day to get her something with better gas milage. Went with the 4 cylinder in the SEL. We consider it one of our best purchases. The Fusion is an incredible vehicle. Comfortable, good looking, nice inside with the interior laid out well as most Fords are, Handles well, and gets good gas mileage. Over the last year, average is 24-27 city, and 31-33 on the highway. All depending on driving conditions and whether ones in a hurry or not. Safety was a big concern for us. Our daughter was recently in an accident, hit from the rear while stopped and sitting still, by a Saturn traveling 55 mph. She walked away with a bump on the head from hitting the steering wheel when hitting the car in front of her. The Fusioon looked like it had been hit at 20mph, the Saturn was totaled. 10,000 dollars worth of damage. I drove the competitors while the car was in the shop,(camry, accord) and none came close in comfort and driving/handling. Bottom line the Fusion is a great car, and is put together to please the eye, the wallet, while keeping the occupant safe with its great frame and many safety features. |
