  • Please stop buying fusion, buy chrysler or dodge instead. I'll be happier.

  • This car has the ugliest instrument cluster I ever seen. I drove one today. the transmission had a lot of slippage. But it was more fun to drive than my Malibu.

  • once you go ford you never go back!!

  • Put back the 2 gear on the geaer shift,and imrove the rear visibility.

  • I own one of these, and I love it xD

  • I just bought a 2012 ford fusion SE. Im not sure how i like it yet.

  • @toadsony0034 Hey, im planning to buy one 2012 in next couple of months, please do let me know whats ur experience with this car so far, im shifting from a 2004 Seat Leon (european) to this one.. is it worth the buck? im impressed so far comapring to the competition, but not very sure... your reply would be highly appreciated! :) Thanks

  • Looks like an updated original taurus

  • Now the Fusion gets about 41mpg for city and 30something for hwy!

  • @wolfblade8426 Yeah i got 42 mpg on the way to work the other day.

  • @MissKuriosity wow that's sweet....I love Ford the best.......especialy since they arent government owned

  • @ColeSpaulding20 omg thank you for saying that now my day is made!!!! yes at least Ford isn't a government owned car company.

  • The Chrysler 200 comes with a penstar 283 HP V6, and all the bells and whistles for a lot less. As far as resale value for the Fusion being less than Accord or Camry, who cares, if you plan on holding onto the car for a long time. The bottom line is test drive all these mid-size sedans before making a decision.

  • But the whole question is..... will it blend?

  • ford in america are the ugliest cars in the world except the ford gt

    europe make's much better cars like the ford s-max titanium s model 2011 and the mondeo and the focus rs

  • @baviaanshit

    Europe definitely doesnt make the much better car. If you want true quality, honda, Hyundai, ford come to mind

  • borrowed from MAzda lol It is a MAzda

  • I have 2008 sel sport model with the moon and tune and it is a true champ! I am considering buying it out or getting another one. I have been very happy with this car and I will continue from now on to buy Ford products. I have had Olds, Pontiac, Cadillac, Ford, Pontiac, never Chevy, and Ford. Pretty good stuff, my supercharged GTP 05 was more powerful and I miss the silver bullet! Loaded Fusion is pretty fun.

  • 3:29 dirty finger!

  • i own a fusiom... unfortunately i live in europe...

  • I work in a Ford Service Department, we never see Fusions in the shop. My wife owns the older body style and has had 0 problems over the last 3 years. To bad we couldn't say that about are Lexus IS 250. Now that Ford sold off their Mazda stock what's going to happen to the Fusion since the platform is Mazda? Some of those Mazda tranny's Ford uses suck! HEY MAZDA QUIT MAKING TRANSMISIONS! You should have learned in the 80s with the F-150 Manual tranny's. Almost as bad as Toyota tranny's.

  • Don't buy this car. I have one. The interior door handles will break trapping you in the car. The six speed automatic has serious issues and may get you killed. Other than that I love the car, but door handles snapping off and automatic transmission that may strand you in the middle of an intersection with on coming traffic bearing down on you is simply unacceptable. Google it!

  • Comment removed

  • I would buy one of these. But, in my experience with Ford rental cars, I expect it to start falling apart at 50K miles. Maybe they make Ford's better then they used to though. My Honda's haven't started falling apart until after 120K miles.

  • @xray707 cant disagree with ya i love ford but depending on ur experiances peoples views can change but idk honda just doesnt seem like a good choice for me

  • I've got to give it to Ford for redesigning itself and now one of the top domestic car companies again in because of that.

  • I got a 2009 Fusion a year ago, and I still love it. Works great, and drives great. The only thing I dont really like is the head-rest, Its tilted forward for some reason.

  • @tehghost132 Why didn't you get a 2010 model?

  • The only flaw from this car's design is that 'Shaving Razor' grille...

    Also available to other modern ford designs

  • This is the car I WISH I'd bought

  • That's why the Fusion is rated so high, it borrowed from it's Japanese subsidiary Mazda. I'm looking at a Consumer report book right now, and it's rated 'much better then average' you think UAW can do that? hahah no.

  • I cant believe anticlock brakes are still only an option at Ford. Are they crazy its about to be 2011 modernize your cars! Antilock should be standard.

  • OK. My question.  Is it a pre-requisite that you MUST have an INSANELY annoying voice to do these reviews?! WTF

  • I love our 08 fusion.

    Kind of wish we had the 3.5 sport 6speed but its a great family car if you get the V6.

  • Why are American is so behind in styling and resale value? Ford needs to fire their designer. Come on...u guys can do better than this.

  • I have one too:D

  • The 2010 fusions are way nicer

  • @CarbineGuy i agree. the new design of the headlights make the car look nicer and it used to look sort of like a cadillac cts from the front.

  • uhh no 2010 fords fusion interior is way much better than this especially its exterior design..

  • and so what if its made in Mexico? better Mexico then being made in China....=p

  • Ive had my Fusion for about 4 months now. I still love it every time drive it.

    I got mine in a suede white with a tan colored interior and love how it looks. It stays fairly quite even when on the highway. The ride is smooth and the steering is responsive.

    The only real negative thing I have to say about it is that the head rest is not adjustable, so it took some getting used to. Fuel economy is so-so, but Im only 10 minutes from work. I re-fill every 2 weeks with $50.

    Yes to fusion!

  • I LOVE MINE!!!

  • would look so much better without the front grill lookin like that tripple edge razor blade

    and the interior's hideous... too boxy and looks out of date

  • YUCK!!!

  • had two of these as rental/loaner vehicles, loved it so much I bought its corporate twin the Mercury Milan...after extensive testing of the Honda Accord too

  • Fact: Made in Mexico

  • ALG now says that the Fusion has a higher resale value than the Camry by $1,600 after 3 years. So much for projections.

  • Ford Fusion V4 HP 175, 22 City/31 highway. New Sonata V4 HP 200, MPG 22 City/35 highway. LOL The Hyundai Sonata has more power, and its even more fuel efficient. Hahahaha Hyundai hater, and lets wait for the Turbo charged Sonata which will blow the ass of any V6 Fusion. Ford=100 years of history=not much better than young Hyundai motors. ;)

  • @jalclk1244

    The Fusion S with an I4 (not V4) is rated 23/34.

  • @jalclk1244

    The Fusion S (with an I4, not V4) is rated 23/34

  • @jalclk1244 dude, i'm glade someone here saw the light, this is the worse looking car ever man.

  • first.........*not so proud of that*

  • I am getting one in a month, once i get tired of my Mazda3, that i got 3 weeks ago :)

  • unfortunately, im getting the 4-cyl. fusion as my first car. i want an s2k soooooo bad!

  • Can an 06 fusion/milan owner tell me if the moon roof can open fully (not just tilt up) i test drove a car today and when i pushed the button on the roof it only tilted up. Thanks

  • I don't know if I would like a car that devours my luggage

  • It's total bullshit that the Ford Fusion doesn't get as good gas mileage as Camry or Accord. It gets just as good gas mileage.

  • I'm glad Mexico is having success! I was in Leon once there is a chevy truck plant that was about a half mile long! Keep people in our back yard employed is a good thing! Although I wish they could keep the jobs here!

  • This is the best car I have owned! I am considering a mustang in 2012 305 horse v6 that gets 31mpg!

  • Mexican production lines are more better than American and arguably even Japanese lines. Ask anyone in the auto industry. Just because the country is poor, doesn't mean they build a bad car.

  • This one ugly ass car. lol

  • Ford had to borrow heavily from japanese car.

  • @mehiael It's true and it bugs me how imcompotent people rate your comment at a -2.

  • So what? Ford uses Japanese engineering. Toyota cars sold in the US heavily uses US engineering.

  • @JeremyFuhenstasser Got to agree with you... Ford use to own the majority of Mazda so they had control over them.. Ford would be dumb not to use Mazda engineering for then self.. Why build a brand new Chasis when Mazda has a great one already built... Anyway the next generation Fusion will be built by Ford Of Europe design and engineering... Ford Of Europe makes great cars and is the reason why Fords are in the top ten most car sales in Europe..

  • @JeremyFuhenstasser

    Ford uses Japanese engineering and call it their own.

    Toyota cars are sold in the US and made in the US.

    American cars are made in Mexico and Canada

  • @badgerattoadhall it is made in america NOT mexico!

  • fords current sedan lineup (north america)

    small- "focus" wayne,michigan

    medium-"fusion" hermosillo, mexico

    large-"taurus" chicago, illinois

  • i know they are IN MEXICO & some of america but they are made in AMERICA NOT MEXICO

  • err what plant are they made in? i am from michigan, two of my uncles are ford retirees and my cousins husband is an electrician at the wayne plant.

    i would have bought a fusion ibut they are made atHermosillo Stamping & Assembly

  • why won't you buy it, what is wrong with mexico? i went to the riu palace ***** this christmas an it was great, so whats wrong with mexico?

  • @ jaffacake Whats wrong with Mexico? Just about everything!!!! But seriously why would I spend $20,000+ on a car made in the 3rd world I feel like I am being ripped off.

  • Comprehensive review??? What about the 268hp Ford Fusion Sport, or the best in class Fusion Hybrid... or the 5-star crash test rating.. or the 12-speaker 300 watt stereo or the blind spot indicators or the heat seat option or rear-view cameras or the Microsoft Sync technology.. KBB sucks, that is why they will place the resale value higher on the Accord or Toyota, than the Ford, which is by far the better car.. I should know, I own own.. didn't Lee Iacoca used to say that..

  • you lucky owning a ford fusion

  • @IamCorgidan are you serious? if you call this lucky then what do you call someone owning a Ford FG XR6 or T6?

  • @IamCorgidan i wouldnt want one as she said it can still labor going up hill and during rapped excelleration. id want a car that picks up speed and goes up a hill with ease

  • sse carro e tudo de bom

  • I think the car looks nice -- much better than the Focus. I'm not really a Ford guy, but I think they did a good job with this car.

  • @TheReapersSon i own one.... :) love it

  • Resale values are based on vehicular propaganda. It doesnt really matter whether the camry has good build quality or not, they already have the image.

  • I wish they would have gotten rid of the Taurus X and turned this into a wagon. Then I would buy it, but I don't like it as a sedan, and it should never be a coupe.

  • HP2g 110mpg engine technology will be released @ SEMA 09 Making GREEN Cool ZONE Nov. 3,2009

  • i think the woman doing this review "netted" herself some crack beforehand. 220 HP is pretty damn good for a car like this. I find it impossible to believe that it "labors on hills and during rapid acceleration." Unless, of course, she's comparing it to sports cars, which would just make her even more of a crackhead.

  • Yeah I agree, the fusion is fast as hell, I have seen quite a few v6 fusions piss on some v6 mustangs. They have more ass to them than what people think.

  • I have a 2009 Fusion and I agree, it is really quick, handles great, and is good for a road trip. All in all greatness

  • I got a 2008 Ford Fusion for my 16th birthday two years ago and I have absolutely loved it!!! The only problem that I have had with it is that it is really low and I live out in the country and one day I hit a hole in the road and it scrubbed and put a small dent in the front. But other than that I am completely satisfied with it.

  • My wife and I have been test driving a few different Fusions, 4cyls and V6's. I'm not sure how they can say that they're not very quick cars. That four cylinder has as much or more kick to it than the Honda's V6 and the Fusion's V6 got me up to 85mph before I was off the entrance ramp to the highway.

  • El Ford Fusion es cuadrado es feo hasta el Nissan Almera es mas bonito que el Fusion...

  • incluso el nuevo? de 2010 la fusión se ve mucho mejor, y es más rápido. mi mamá tiene un nissan sentra, y se siente tan barato en comparación con la fusión, que se concederá es de 5 años de edad y es más barato el de la fusión y el Altima. Lo siento por el pobre español ...

  • fuck spanish

  • fuck spanish

  • ah, yet another English supremacist? you do realize most of the English language is based on: Spanish, German, Italian, and of course, Greek. by insulting spanish, you are indirectly insulting your own.

  • English is Germanic .....not Spanish or Italian,...................SPA­NISH ITALIAN FRENCH AND ROMANIAN ARE SIMILAR....ENGLISH IS A TOTALLY SEPARATE LANGUAGE......

  • yesyes, but its all based on the greeks an romans so who the hell cares, my point is english aint the only language around, and it sure aint the oldest.

  • don't be mad cause you don't have the brain to learn it, idiota canto de pendejo mamon!

  • Gotta love that Fusion. Will pick it over ANY crappy ass Chevy or overrated Toyota any day.

  • Hey , as much i'm into the idea of keppeing my money here, Toyota builds good cars, but I agree that the Fusion can provide the same quality and fuel economy. I have one for the past 2 years and I love that car. But I did rent a Pontiac G6 last year and it wasn't bad at all either.

  • I just bought a 2010 Ford Fusion SE and Love it!

  • Nice car!

  • this car is gorgeous. I love fusions.

  • how do they know the resale value when it's a brand new car? lol

  • I would get the Hyundai Sonata

  • Comment removed

  • if you want a power car get a mustang

  • Fuck Chevy Impala, SS, LS, or any other trim levels that car offers. Those cars suck. Not gas efficient, oversized engine, lack backseat room, and just flat-out unreliable.

    By the way, it's spelled:

    C-H-E-V-R-O-L-E-T.

  • WELL - WELL....You can spell, BUT you sure as hell don't know what you are talking about!

    C-H-E-V-Y "OUT RATES" MAJOR IMPORTS (INCLUDING Japanese) significantly in fuel economy, horsepower maintenance and repair......Why not quit "bumpin your gums" and check out "impartial" web ratings?

    PS: It's "FA - Q" Ice-hole!

  • LOL look at the queer that stole his mommy's laptop and found the CAPS lock button. Chevy is a horrible car. I passed 3 Malibus on the same expressway today. I rented an Impala after I was involved in a car wreck and the thing couldn't pass a gas station without the "low fuel level" light coming on. So no I do not feel bad for my opinion that GM makes crappy cars. I have always stood by that and will continue to. So take your Chevy love and shove it, buddy.

  • MISTERDIPLOMATIC?: I cant believe I have and continue to engage such an absolutely ignorant moron on such a totally irrevolent issue....However, it remains that YOU are full of shit!......LOOK UP THE "IMPARTIAL" FACTS "FUCKTOID"

  • I'm full of shit? OK little girl shut the fuck up you have been reported. Have a nice day.

  • LOOK AT YOU!......Initiating the tossing out of insults & adjectives....then crying when the water gets a little too deep for you......Why not change your "handle" to the more appropriate: MISTERHYPOCRITE?

  • MISTERHYPOCRITE: Report this......In addition to proving the fact that you are an "ignorant moron"......You are a fuggin "MOOK" to boot!

  • PS:

    You ARE full of shit!

  • LOL starting an argument on the internet. Bet you feel like a tough guy talking smack with a keyboard behind a monitor. Yeah whatever loser.

  • MISTERHYPOCRITE: Leave it to a child to START a problem, make it personal when he finds himself incapable of further debate....then accuse the other guy for the ramifications....OH YA......YOUR A GENIUS ALRIGHT!

  • (Yawns) Yeah ok LOL

  • it takes 8.2 seconds for the 4 cyl Fusion to get to 60 mph

    6.9 seconds with the v6.

    Good for a 3,280 lb car.

  • DAMM GOOG considering it is designed to accomodate MAMA's safety, reliability, praticality & confort concerns addressed. Dad's on the other hand is seeking an estheticakky pleasing , fun driviing and durable car with just a little "punch"

  • Anything prior to the 2010 lineup is ugly. 2010 Fusion looks a million times better.

  • The Ford merger the car and the beacons are very square it(he) is not very nice one sees him very ugly....

  • this is the only car from Ford that im actually considering buying...this is or the Focus Coupe

  • Yes. It is reliable, good on gas and drives great.

  • I got 16.8mpg when i rented the v6

  • I heard they were good cars. My dad has one and it is pretty good. I would get the Hyundai too, if I drive. I heard Hyundais are good cars.

  • I have two KIA's (Hyundai makes kia the same way ford makes mercury) and Ive never had an issue..

  • Thanks for the info and i am Korean, so I think my firs car would be either Hyundai or Kia.

  • cool

  • Yep, if I'm biased, sobeit.

  • Yeah, your fucking KIA's are like a cardboard on wheels. Drove one recently and that fucking piece of shit is so noisy inside and you feel every little bump on the road.

  • Okay. I don't know who to believe. Somebody else told me that Hyundais are good. You suggest a Ford Fusion? What about Pontiac Sunfire? Would you suggest that? Chevy I would NEVER buy.

  • I have to say that the redesign for the Fusion looks a lot better than the older models. At first glance they might look the same, but the new front end on the 2010 models has a more aggressive look.

  • Drove one today. Fun, but couldnt feel any power from the engine.

  • I have an '07 fusion L4 and its amazing to say the least. The engine doesn't whine like a toyota or honda and the car looks a lot nicer then other cars in it class. The best part though, is that unlike the cramped interior of a toyota or honda, the interior of the ford fusion is roomy and extremely comfortable. 5 stars

  • Comment removed

  • i have to agree there great cars i own one my self

  • Overall, your comment was all your opinion with no facts. Check out the 2010 fusion, more power, better fuel economy than all in it's class, and better styling.

  • at least ford didnt take our money, lose it, and sell to foreign countries

  • But at least the profits from sales go to Ford in the USA, unlike honda or toyota profits.

  • Douche. The profits go to shareholders, not American workers. Grow up. Do you want to support corporations or employees?

  • your an idiot. America is one of the greatest countries even though I do not agree with all of their policies,

    -regards from Canada

  • i just got a ford fusion for my first car, it drives great! i dont have the high end model shown in this video but i still really like it

  • If I was in the market for a fuel efficient sedan than I would certainly buy this car. I don't care what anyone says I like the design and the fuel economy is rock solid, I'm very impressed with Ford's current lineup.

  • americans buy ford, rather than going to japanese or korean cars.

    GMC is goneeee :(, build the ecconomy

  • Best looking midsized sedan out there IMO. I used to love Accords, but it's now bloated with excess. Camry? Nice car, but I wouldn't spend bigger bucks for an oversized Corolla that should go on a diet. And, the 2010 Fusion is even nicer yet! Gotta give it to Ford whether you like them or not...the Fusion rules.

  • isn't his the car that they gave to the top 2 of the american idol??

  • this car is good when my family wants to get one that doesn't cost much. i don't really care about warranty since i usually get cars used. and for me it depends on, good fuel rate, comfortability, style, and easy to repair. ford was there first o well if it goes down least i know most pepboys and other repair shops cna handle the fords simple design.

  • Kelley does a nice job of car reviews. I like the girl's voice, since I can hear her clearly with my aging ears.

  • false, the 2010 gets better mpg than a Japanese car.

  • Evidence, please.

  • Well the 2010 Fusion gets 23/34 in non hybrid mode which is better then the Camry, Accord, Malibu, Scion Xb, Nissan Versa anything you name it. And 2010 Fusion hybrid gets 41 mpg in the city which is better then the Smart car! The Fusion hybrid goes up to 47 miles per hour until it switches to the engine!

  • oh and also i forgot, it is the most fuel efficent midsized car!

  • if thats so... how bout the new 2010 toyota prius hyrbrid? 51/48

  • that piece of shit? thats not in the same class as the fusion.

  • it gets better mpg than another other car in its class.

  • Comment removed

  • agree...

  • I see, I stated on my comment that the car is my aunts.I drive her sometimes coz she's sick...I will never buy a car from ford,maybe a truck but not a car...I drove a 4 banger and its nothing close to this car...this car sucks! and they said it should be good on gas? its not coz u have to rev the engine at higher rpm's a lot...and im not trying to go fast with this car its just noticebly slow and sluggish.

  • that car's not fast. well, if you give it to their racing and sport technology team in Essex, then it might be fast...

  • This is a big piece of trash...it has no power! at all! I feel like Fred Flintstones driving this piece of shit! I dont know why the fuck ford put a small ass engine on a big fucking car. power to weight ratio! dumbass engineers! Im trying to return my aunts. hopefully they let us coz I feel like buying a match and burn this fucking piece of crap from ford! unbelievably under power! Im so fucking disapointed...

  • imports can suck my domestic cock

  • good look?....its ugly...its head looks like it came out from the 90s...i would expect better from ford

  • This video is posted by a "technician" payed by Ford so you can expect to hear how "wonderful" this car can be (obviously)

    However it's a tradition in Ford Motor Company to make the ugliest and shitty cars all the time and generation by generation unlike japanese and germans automakers.

    ugly design + poor quality + lack of technology = low sales.

    That's why the "big three" struggle.

  • To RickStylus: Ford has actually matched toyota in quality, furthermore the reason the big three are "struggling" is because of the UAW. The days of the 70's gass guzzlers are long gone. I have two GM cars with over 250k and one with 840,981 that's right over 3/4 million miles. Show me a toyota with that, that still gets 32 mpg on the motorway doing 85 mph. The only thing I've replaced is a water pump, tires, brakes, and batteries. Get your facts straight, and open a book on current events.

  • lol u actually expect better from Ford? Has Ford EVER made a good fucking car?

    Maybe if their retard CEO got off his private jet and actually focused on his fucking company, this piece of shit moocher woulden't be begging for a bailout!!!!
