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.
