  • Back looks ugly but the Front is just brilliant

  • I think the confusion is because the Taurus used to compete in the same class as the Camry. Now, however, the Fusion is about the same size as the original Taurus.

  • Fusion is a great car I would love to own one of these - I'm glad that the ignition is a turn key, so if I need to turn it off, I turn the key. I think I am capable of that, and I don't need a computer system to do it for me.

  • Some one up made a comment abt Fusion competing eith Civic and not Camry.

    Focus competes with Civic/Corrola, Fusion is 1 inch longer than Camry. 190.2 inch for fusion to 189.2 for camry. 2009/10 Taurus compete with Avalon and taurus is bigger than Avalon.

  • this new fusion is prettier than the past

  • I have an 06 Fusion SEL and I love it, but this new one is so damn fine

  • is like the chevrolet volt 2011 -.-

  • 400 bucks cheaper?? loL thats why? o.O

  • Also because Toyota is my favorite brand.

  • this does a lot better on gas though ^_^

  • The base Fusion achieves 31 mpg on the highway, equal to that of the base Camry. Only the Fusion hybrid beats the camry hybrid. Fusion uses the platform from Mazda6 and the HSD tech leased from Toyota Group, enabling it to outperform the current Camry hybrid. However, I would reckon that the next generation 2011 Camry hybrid to at least equal that of the current Fusion hybrid.

  • And I reckon the next gen fusion will at least equal that next gen camry.

    Dude buy American, if you don't believe me take an economics class.

  • I'm not American. I'm Chinese Canadian.

  • BTW, if Hummer becomes a Chinese brand, then I'll mostly likely get a next-generation H4.

  • Oh good, one less chink canadian dying in his chinese built POS car

  • Chink? I like that sound of coins. Anyhow, Hummers will be operating as a US-based company that would be a subsidiary to Tengzhong, and Hummers will still be built in the US.

  • Do you know what you are talking about? Fusion is 1 inch longer than Camry. 190.2 inch for fusion to 189.2 for camry. 2009/10 Taurus compete with Avalon and taurus is bigger than Avalon.

  • This car spanks your Toyo on price, looks and gas mileage.

  • i can understand where this guy is coming from. if you're a toyota guy, and have been happy with them in the past, it's hard to switch brands, even if the competitor is compelling.

  • Pffffffffttt, don't look at me, bro huh! Look at the sales numbers: Camry outsells Fusion by a margin of at least 3 to 1. Pfffffffffftttt. Toyota guy my ass!

  • I won a 2010 Ford Fusion Sport from American Idol just 2 weeks ago!!!!!!

    see the video.............i got really lucky :)

  • yeah?

  • how dos a car vid turn into a semi political debate?

  • i dont know.....

  • Maybe because cars are often the subject of many a varied opinion; so are differing political ideologies, but I think what the guy was trying to say is that the global economic situation, particularly in the U.S., has reached unprecedented proportions which the next several generations will not be able to get out from under and THAT is more important than the new car coming out. Pay mind to what's important.

  • wow, hard to find out what anyone has to say about the car with madmercenary taking up all the space talking about debt. go post somewhere else, dont be a douche. there are already enough dicks on youtube dont make it worse.

  • love fusion, has this catchy look going on

  • The Fusion and Milan are excellents car because are made with high Mexican technology ! I have both in home.

  • Absolutely Hideous! The only people who buy pieces of American crap are people who are uneducated about the auto market. Is this the best ford has to offer? If that is the case they are DOOMED. This car is lack-lustrous, and a downgrade from the last piece of crap Fusion. Seriously, shop around before you buy this car. It looks like crap. A new Altima, Mazda 6, or Genesis makes this car look BORING.

  • only the best your dads salery can provide i am sure

  • Lol when you make absurd accusations such as that, you discredit your opinion because you are making unvalidated bias accusations. And you expect me to take you seriously?

  • You know the look is dependent on your opinion, I like it and i believe it resembles the honda. Also the hybrid version is very nice and recieves 41mpg. The escape hybrid gets 34mpg city which is another good hybrid. Also the 2010 taurus!!! Omg that thing is drop dead gorgeous! And ford's new ecoboost engine line... Amazing! 365hp from a 3.5l v6. And great fuel economy. around 30mpg. And you know the mazda 6 is the fusion's chassis its just got different looks.

  • Lol the taurus is drop dead gorgeous? I never see that car, or the Ford Five Hundred. And i mean never. For a car that came out almost two years ago, its impact on the market is pathetic literally. USA has highest GDP, correct. BUT their national debt is out of control, who cares what they make when they spend like a drunken sailor. Twin deficits, Import/export deficit, and budget deficit. Sure they make plenty, BUT they spend plenty more, get your facts straight buddy.

  • I'm talking about the new 2010 taurus and you probably never see it because its not out yet but thats just my theory. And what fact did i have wrong buddy? Well GDP is the money they make off of final products so it does matter, it means things are selling and are you saying no other country has spending problems?

  • America's own auditor (comptroller general) David Walker knows America is bankrupt. Sure, i'll give you a little credit the new taurus, if that what the final product looks like, is decent. It is very simple economics that when you spend more than you make, you are going into debt. America has been going into debt for generations, and the Federal Reserve, and the other creditor nations are not going to keep busting their back so that Americans live so unrealistically.

  • No, the US hasn't been going into debt for generations. When Clinton left in 2001, the America's economy was booming, and he had not only paid off the debt that he had inherited from the failed Reganomics, but he left with an enormous surplus. Also, don't be so quick to point the finger at one country, because countless countries around the world are in bad shape econmically. I'm not trying to fight or anything, I'm just pointing something out...and I happen to think the new Taurus is nice.

  • Sure, the national debt was zero, and their were a couple surpluses at most. But that does not redeem decades of deficits. America's national debt has been consistently climbing since the creation of the Federal Reserve. If you understand the mechanics of the fiat monetary system you will understand that it is literally impossible to clear the trillion dollar debt to the international bankers. Btw Taurus is a step in right direction, little late on arrival though.

  • Did you read anything I wrote? America was 100% debt free going into 2001 so YES that does make up for the past few administrations with a good amount of debt, B/C THE US OVERCAME IT. In fact, Clinton had something like a 260 billion dollar surplus at one point. And you need not worry about me understanding economics, I do just fine in my college econ class.

  • And yes, the Taurus is a step in the right direct, but I wouldn't say it was a little late, after all, they have the Fusion.

  • America was debt free going into 2001... What kind of debt are you talking about? Sure the fuck not the national debt, which is about to climb to 12 trillion by the end of this year. You think a 260 billion dollar surplus is actually going to make a difference in a fractional reserve fiat monetary system?

  • I'm not trying to be a jerk about this or start a fight but NOBODY CARES. Go post on a clip of CNBC or something if you wanna go on about this. This is a video about cars, not about the national debt. The only fiat that should be mentioned is the Italian car company thats merging with chrysler. If you wanna talk about the Fusion fine, if not, then post somewhere else.

  • Nobody in America watching this new Ford Fusion video cares about the national debt? When they tsunami debt comes and wipes out America they will have to revert back to the wheel, i don't think they will care about new Fusion's when they are starving to death.

  • Coming from some one is studying economics, you sure did not make a strong thesis on how America is not fucked financially. You just changed the subject, swept it under the rug, and told me to beat it and go somewhere else. I pray that is not how you write your term papers. C-

  • actually i heard its 14 trillion as of now.

  • are you a retard???? what rock do you live under?? Debt free!!!!!!!!!!!!! your fucking laughable, and if your in college I pity the future work force.....

  • Yeah, I bet you're an expect on economics. I'm sure you don't know anywhere near as much on the subject so just give it up, and maybe you should look at the last post, NOBODY CARES. Just post on the freaking car. No one cares what you have to say on politics or economics, just about the car.

  • I see you America! Nuff said! We all know how your education system is. A freaking joke literally. That is why you guys can not engineer cars worth crap. No one wants American cars. GM sales are down 47% this year. American cars are crap. No matter how nice they look, they are still playing catch up. GM needs bail money, Chrysler needs bail money, and Ford will be at the coffers soon enough. It does not matter in the end BECAUSE America is going to be a third world country soon.

  • You know that every auto maker's sales are down right? And did you know that toyota is trying to get money from the japanese government just like gm and chrysler? Nissan is about to try it too. So its not just the big 3, its all companies. It's the whole world. Also america still has the highest GDP and it's still increasing so fuk off.

  • They did not take the loans YET. No one wants their crap, consumers will squeeze Ford's market share to an all time low. Their market share has been in decline ever since they had some real competition. Yet, they are lacking in innovation, and their production line is aimed at the wrong demographs. Baby boomers are not the biggest consumers anymore, yet they still aim for then.

  • half of the people on herr that have something bad to say about ford, read to many magazines... DRIVE ONE... BIT>CH

  • Amen to that brotha.

  • Just die already Ford. Die! Die! Die! The consumers will speak soon enough stop buying products that are crap. Just hope the government doesn't NATIONALIZE the auto industry. Because that is what these bailouts really are. Government getting in the way of natural business cycles. The reason we are in this mess is because of the government!

  • welll my dad works for ford and the majority are non union members inclusing my dad; union memebers are usually the people at plants

  • 2013 which will be on the Fords new global platform.

  • I always liked the Fusion and think the 2010 is nice too. I'm just a little surprised it didn't get a more extensive makeover like the Taurus and Mustang did.

  • Ford is really upping their game against the competition lately. I was impressed with every Ford/Lincoln product I looked at when I was at the Chicago Auto Show. The new Taurus's interior wouldn't look out of place in a German car because the quality is so good. If I was in the market for a midsized car I'd be torn between this new Fusion and the Volkswagen Passat. None of the new Japanese cars really impressed me except the Mazda6.

  • work for ford and saw one pull into the lot for the first time. i like it ... think it looks alot sportier than the old model

  • I don't like the new exterior on the 2010 model. It looks cheaper than the 09. What happened to those stylish taillights. The all red ones are boring. :oP

  • this cars beatiful , like the 2010 taurus, achually they are already starting a new fusion a 2012./2013

  • CURRENT Fusion drives better than the Lame Camry. This one will eat its lunch. Camry is a great car for cube workers who are already dead inside. For people who like to drive Camry is an abomination.

  • Looks better than the Mazda 6. The new Mazda 6 is so ugly. What happened to Mazda?? I guess Ford is given up on it. I don't blame them. Take care of your own cars. Next time GM and Ford gain a profit don't go buying foreign auto company's because they don't give a shit about U. The Toyota Americans are Jobless. Can't buy a Toyota now without a Job.

  • I don't care of haters, this one looks and outperforms since it's release way better than ugly boring camrys, and altimas. As a matter of fact.

  • How is the Altima Boring??LOL! I KNow the 2007-2009 camrys are boring and bland even the 2008 accord..But how the altima is ugly it won the VSA award for midsize cars.But it didnt out do the 2009 MALIBU!"FOR BEST LOOKING"

  • hey thats pretty nice

    dont love the grill though

    it looks like a revised mazda 6

  • The grill is to high...

  • yeah it looked like they over did it like on the new acura tl

  • i love ford cars but this is very ugly

  • genau

  • isnt that the ford mondeo..?

  • OMG the ford mondeo 2008 is a beauty!! But if i look at the fords made in USA BLEGH! :D

    The front and the back are ugly.. lol.

    The back looks like it's designed by some chinese.

  • if you dont like american products go live in japan!!!

  • If you don't like American cars, it's because you haven't driven any.

  • I Do Not Said "I Dont Like American Cars"

    i like, i has a FUSION 2006, Chrysler Stratus LX V6 97 and Ford F-250 in my home, but this new FUSION are HORRIBLE.

    i haven't drive one? ;]

  • I like American products. But I don't like giving my money to the POS, greedy, parasitic, GARBAGE UAW.

    Get rid of the piece of shit fu-king union, and I'll buy an American car in a SECOND.

    So, I support the american CAR COMPANIES, but FUCK the bit-h ass union.

  • whats wrong with the auto workers union?

  • "whats wrong with the UAW?

    It rewards sloth among workers, does NOT reward good work, steals from the employees it 'represents' 2 give to corrupt polititians many of those employees may not support, & adds 2 the cost of every american car u buy 4 all these 'services'. Unions may have a place in SERVICE industries, but we r WAY past needing unions in manufacturing. The southern NON union auto factories pay quite well. layed off workers get 100% salary? FUCK THE UNION..It's why we cant compete.

  • If you don't mind me asking, what's NOT wrong with the auto workers union? Does it benefit car buyers or americans in general in ANY way? It just makes us pay more than a car is worth so they can force the car companies 2 pay out of work auto workers full pay, kick millions 2 politicians, thus KILLING american competitiveness. If a uaw worker's unemployed they should get the same damn unemployment check as any1 else would. The uaw's days are #'ed though. THANK GOD. Then I can buy American again.

  • i was just wondering

    i wasnt trying to start an argument

    but if what your saying is true then thank god their days are numbered but can i ask why?

  • I Do Not Said "I Dont Like American Cars"

    i like, i has a FUSION 2006, Chrysler Stratus LX V6 97 and Ford F-250 in my home, but this new FUSION are HORRIBLE.

  • @tamainemiller Just to let you know, the Ford Fusion uses Japanese parts, and Shares a Platform with the Mazda 6. Fords partially owned Japanese subsidiary. Why do you think it's rated so high? (:

  • I own a 2008 Fusion SEL AWD and I am here to tell you that the Fusion is a damn good car.

  • Oh and on another note, it's a fact that the Fusion bests the majority of cars today as far as reliability including ANY Toyota let alone chevy. Look it up. Fusion owners report the LEAST problems in their cars than ANY vehicle Ford has ever built. Not sayin chevys aren't attractive, many are, just quoting the facts.

  • In my opinion this car has just gotten fatter and more refined and high tech. Apparently ford isn't willing to put the sweet 263+hp Duratec in a reasonable sized first gen fusion. I think with a more powerful 2.3, the duratec 35, and a 45+mpg diesel like Volkswagen Jetta has, ford could dominate all the competitors in every category. But I guess they'd rather just copy the boring gayass Camry and build boats just like the 70s. Kudos to Volkswagen for being different.

  • they need to bring the ford mondeo from europe!

  • The new mailbu is cheap inside, the backseat feels like a park bench and that two tone dashboard is one of the ugliest dashboards that I have seen in a long time.

  • Ford respect!!! this car is sweet...

  • I like the look of all the fusions so far and this one isn't an exception. A few people dont like it but most do. Anything that's a bit different will have critics.

  • That is the ugliest blue I've ever seen. Besides the color, the 2010 Fusion is a sweet looking car. The 2010 Fusion looks like a serious contender to the Accord and Camry now. Also, The Fusion has always been one of the best built and best handling cars you can buy. It should be very interesting to see what happens when the press compares it to the Accord and Camry next year.

  • Order it in black and you have a poor man's C350 Sport.  This car is probably great value/performance for dollar amount spent.

  • true

  • Hahha, what do you want them to build another 94 Taurus? LOL

    They put out what it likely the best looking mid-size sedan EVER and people still complain!  LOL

  • Best looking Mid-sized sedan???

    Are you sure you are commenting on the right video? This is the 2010 Fusion...not the BMW 3-series.

  • Perhaps I should have better qualified mid-size sedan.

    The 2010 Fusion is the best looking FWD, mainstream mid-size sedan.

    But yes, I think the '10 Fusion easily outclasses the current Altima, Camry, Accord, 6, and Malibu by a wide margin.

    ...even on powertrains.

  • The Fusion surpassed the Accord and Camry in quality in its first year (2006) and has beaten both the Camry and Accord in CR ratings ever since. The Fusion is already a segment leader in quality, and I would expect that leadership to be maintained with the '10 MCE.

    The Accord and Malibu look better only if you prefer bland, also-ran style. The Fusion will draw more attention, and certainly is far more aggressive looking.

    As for sales, '10 will be the first time Fusion leads in drivetrain.

  • Also, Hermosillo already running at near capacity for the Fusion-triplets. So for lackluster sales, it seems to be doing pretty darn well.

    I hope they expand production, because with the 2010 updates I think they will likely need it. Best in class 4 cyl FE, 3.5 to stave off Nissan VQ, hybrid beats Camry hyrbrid by 5 mpg, PIP 240 HP V6 for mil-level models with nearly 30 mpg. For the first time Fusion is a class leader on powertrain, to go along with class leading quality and style. Nice!

  • Everyone who said the Fusion as going to knock the Accord and Camry off of their thrones was misinformed. Even if the demand to do it was there (and it wasn't), Ford has about 1/3 the production capacity for the Fusion that Honda has for the Accord.

    Hermosillo is running at near capacity already, they can't build much many more than they are.

  • With all due respect. What is your problem ? Ever since the Fusion came out it has been a CR (Consumer Reports) Best Buy. And CR hates Domestic car companies !!!

    The only reasons why the Fusion did not outsell the Camcords.

    1. The V6 engine only had 221HP. they both 260HP+

    2. No Hybrid option available

    3. The interior wasn't the best.

    Ford has addressed all of these issues in Aces. the 2010 Fusion has the best HP and Fuel economy in every engine except the 3.5 V6. What more do you want?

  • Rock,

    I want the Mondeo. The 2010 Fusion powertrains will suffice (but add the Mondeo's diesel.

    I do not think it is right that Ford...a domestic company, sells it's best cars elsewhere. The simple fact is that Ford has world class cars...and none of them are sold here.

    All I want is the Mondeo, Euro Focus, and Falcon. Ford can continue to peddle the North American appliances on-sale now...but those three cars would truly give Ford an edge over GM...their closest rival.

  • Are you retarted?? Have you even seen the inside of the 1st Gen. Fusion? As for gas mine gets 28-30mpg Highway, and I have the 3.0 V6. The jap interiors looks like a horses ass, and dont even get me started on design. I wish people would get off the small dicks of japs and by some Built tough American cars!

  • I think they forgot to peel the blue protecting film off the aluminum trim ;). Great looking car, but I'd have to do without the blue trim package.

  • First
