For the 2010 model year, the new Ford Fusion lineup expands to include an all-new hybrid model that offers class-leading fuel economy, beating the Toyota Camry hybrid by at least 5 mpg in the city; innovative new SmartGauge with Eco-Guide teaches hybrid drivers to maximize fuel efficiency.
SmartGauge with Eco-Guide features two, high-resolution, full-color LCD screens on either side of the analog speedometer that can be configured to show different levels of information, including fuel and battery power levels, instant miles-per-gallon, etc. Eco-Guide uses a multi-faceted approach to help the driver get maximum fuel efficiency from the Fusion. A tutorial mode built into the display coaches the driver to learn more about the instrument cluster and the hybrid in a fun and quirky way. Technical enthusiasts will love the detailed gauges. Everyday drivers will love another new feature in this same gauge cluster, called Efficiency Leaves, where the system grows leaves and vines on-screen to reward customers for efficient green driving.The Fusion Hybrid is powered by a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine (155 horsepower/136 lb.-ft. of torque) running the Atkinson cycle mated to an electronically-controlled continuously variable transmission or e-CVT. Intake Variable Cam Timing (iVCT), allows the vehicle to effortlessly transition from gas to electric mode and vice-versa.. Overall, the wider, sportier look aims to make Fusion even more appealing to customers eager for a fun-to-drive mid-size sedan.Exclusive optional features, including Ford SYNC, SIRUIS radio, TravelLink, BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) with Cross Traffic Alert, and Sony-branded audio take Fusion apart from other mid-size sedans.
