Take A Test Drive — I just drove this across country. It handled well and I got great gas mileage, I averaged better than what is posted because I used the cruise control and there was a few hills during the trip. Overall it is the best car I ever had. In the past 2months there has been no problems. I love how it handles here in San Diego. It has great acceleration for getting up on any of the Interstate on-ramps.

Great Family Sport Sedan — I loved this car. Very powerful and I enjoyed racing people and easily winning. Great handling around corners. Has a lot of technology in it. Very easy to park and drive around. Not many blind spots. The only bad thing is the tires spin very easily due to the power and only FWD version of it.

Love It, Smooth, Peppy And Luxurious — Got the car for a great deal at the end of the model year. Cant beat the lease on this thing. Plus it actually worked out better to get one with lots of options (leather roof, heated seats, backup camera and more) than it did to get cloth. Plus Orange Motors in Albany (where i bought it) really took great care of me.

Comfortable, Stylish, Economical And Affordable! — My wife uses this car for a 120 miles/day commute. The fuel economy is superb! This is the 2nd Fusion we have owned and for our application it couldn't work better. For a mid-size vehicle this has a lot of options and comforts at an affordable price tag
