From the start I liked the way the 2010 Ford Fusion was going to look like. It was one of the few Fords where the Gillette grille actually fit the car while the Taurus just looked weird with it. So why I saw 5 brand new ones come to my branch I was delighted and wanted to drive one of these cars. Well it appears these were from National's order so we actually got the SEL trim instead of your typical Enterprise base car. So just sitting inside this car was a major step up from the last Fusion which was mediocre at best. The materials looked a lot better, unlike the last Fusion it does look more like a 21st century vehicle from inside with all the buttons. The 2010 Fusion's interior is not the best looking in my mind, its still rather dark and all the buttons does make it look a bit like a mess. Still, its comfortable and compared to GM and Chrysler...very very good. Normally I'm harsh on made in Mexico build quality, but Ford must have gotten it right here vs. Nissan who doesn't seem to understand how badly Mexican made Nissans are. The car does a lot better on the drive. Its only a 2.5L 4-cylinder but it acts a lot like a V6 unit. This is a very quiet 4-cylinder and appears to have more than enough torque. The handling seems to be inspired by the Mazda6 since it feels competent on corners. The steering wheel is well weighted adding to the sense that this car has been developed in the right way. Good job Ford, keep this up and maybe American cars would be looked at in a positive light.

I bought this car for my son. He did the research and is now very happy with the purchase. It looks good, the ride is great as is the gas mileage. He really enjoys the satellite radio and sync. On the down side, the dash had been wiped with something that caused spotting, which he did not see at the dealership.

Great car even for someone as tall as I am. Handles great on the back roads and gets good gas milage. Plenty of trunk space. it just wants to go and go when on the highway. 80mph feels like 50mph.

After dropping in a K&N filter, it made a suprising difference in torque and I only lost 1 mpg. Braking is excellent, but the body roll was a little more than expected and it creates a little more understeer when turning sharp than I would like. great ride comfort, comfortable seats with great back support. No repairs needed, great gas mileage. This car is alot of fun to cruise around in.
