Now this aside its V-6 engine, four-cylinder-powered Ford Fusion to get some fuel economy numbers significantly. It's just shy of the best in class when equipped with the optional - and the smallest-displacement - machinery, and among the best with the most powerful powertrain.
There is also the Fusion Hybrid, with a sky-high 47-mpg ratings across the board, and plug-in hybrid version of the Energy MPGe figure is higher than the Chevy Volt - but we're dealing with them separately because of technology differences with the gas-only car.
The base engine in the Fusion S and SE is a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine, was taken with minor improvements from other model lines (the version found in the Mazda5 minivan, too). This is combined with a six-speed automatic, and generates estimated fuel economy 22 miles per gallon city, 34 miles per gallon highway, or 26 mpg combined. Number of cities is very low, but the number of rivals such as highway vehicles Kia Optima and Hyundai Sonata, Chevy Malibu and beat basis.
Engine is standard on Fusion Titanium 2.0-liter turbocharged four with direct injection. Working together to drive a six-speed automatic and front or all-wheel, it helps to predict the best gas mileage 22/33 mpg, or 26 mpg combined, Ford said. The numbers are not yet certified, but they put the Fusion in the same room with the Sonata and Optima 2.0T Turbo and Turbo Malibu, while significantly surpassed Nissan Altima V-6 and its 22/30-mpg numbers.
Interesting comparison is equipped with the optional 1.6-liter turbocharged, direct-injected four. Fusion is offered in SE, and can also be equipped with stop / start technology for $ 295 more. Stop / start to boost fuel economy about 4 percent, Ford said, but also emit light some shudder to pedal and floorpan on the restart, which we found during our brief test drive, but it really was tolerated because it helps gas mileage powertrain is expected to of 25/37 mpg, or 29 mpg combined with the six-speed manual, or 24/37 mpg and 28 mpg combined with the automatic. It was just barely under the class-leading 38 mpg Nissan Altima for highway cycle for non-hybrid vehicles, and a few miles per gallon ahead of all other competitors. Will buyers pay a premium for fuel economy? This is a mixed proposition so far in other Ford products, but the Fusion can prove otherwise.
