The New Ford Fusion is a winner.

[DaBears]

Guys the 2013 Ford Fusion is simply amazing. The new looks is simply great and the Hybrid is going to get 47MPG city and 44 on the highway. Those numbers are INSANE!!!!

The car can go 62mph without the gas engine.

I seriously think this is going to be Ford's best car.

When I am car shopping in a couple years I will for sure have to consider it!!

I just hope the Hybrid stays low cost like it is now. You can find them for $25k on cars.com.

something tells me that if gas keeps climbing or even stays in the range its in now that dealers are going to be taking full advatange of those that want the car. the new fusion is very very nice. its nice to have a hybrid that actually looks good. if the price is good i would consider it as well but i have a feeling (in my area) that the dealers will ask a 5k premium like they did when the first fusion hybrid came out. i hope not though.

Will be interested to see the price tag on these new plug-in hybrids.

I think the MSRP is around 27 or 28k but you can buy them here in Indiana for 25k.

I really want something bigger like if there was a Subaru Outback Hybrid, but there isnt. The looks and 47MPG city might sway me towards this Fusion.

I had the Original 2006 Ford Fusion SEL and it was a great great car.

I dont think the Fusion is a plug in hybrid. Unless your talking about that last trim level they mentioned.

Im sure if there is a plug in model it will be over 30k.

[futrocpd]

hmmm. if they price them around 27-28 for the hybrid, that maybe something i look at. they are great cars, i used to sell them! this new model is really good looking imho

yeah, that's what I was referring to, as that will be the Volt's main competition (technically).

Ford wont be stupid enough to raise the price too much over what they charge for the current hybrid.

More news today about the new Fusion having the start-stop option.

I honestly dont see the point.

is there an AWD option? I will never buy a FWD car.

[futrocpd]

there was on the current gen of fusions so i would not see why thre would not be on this one. probably not on the hybrid though

Yes, with the 2.0 ecoboost, though I cannot remember exactly which trims off hand.

I think the new Fusion is going to be a great car. looked over a 13 Malibu at the local dealer yesterday and it was well, eh.

[DaBears]

Yes AWD on ecoboost SEL trim.

I just wish it was priced closer to the Sonata hybrid
