2013 Ford Fusion Complete Info and Official Photos Released! - Auto and Tech News

Video showing information and high resolution images of the all-new 2013 Ford Fusion. It will be available in S, SE, and Titanium trims and will be full of technology. Myfordtouch infotainment system will be available as well as driver aids such as adaptive cruise control, a lane keeping system with drowsy driving detection, blind spot monitoring, hill start assist, and active park assist. There will be three powertrain options. A 2.5L inline-4 170 hp 170 tq with a 6 speed auto, a 1.6L ecoboost 4 cylinder 179 hp 172 tq with a 6 speed auto or 6 speed manual, and a 2.0L ecoboost 4 cylinder 237 hp 250 tq with a 6 speed auto. Front wheel drive is standard but the Fusions with the 2.0 ecoboost can be had with all wheel drive. It's expected to have best in class fuel economy with the 1.6L ecoboost expected to achieve 26 mpg city and 37 mpg highway while the 2.0L ecoboost should net around 23 mpg city and 33 mpg highway. For more fuel economy Ford is offering a Fusion Hybrid and Fusion Energi. The Fusion Hybrid's total output is around 185hp and 130tq delivered through a cvt transmission and is expected to achieve 47mpg city and 44mpg highway, easily besting the Toyota Camry Hybrid and Hyundai Sonata Hybrid and getting close to Prius numbers. Ford says the Fusion Hybrid will be able to operate at up to 62mph without even having spin the engine. The Fusion Energi has the same core powerplant as the hybrid but with a plug-in hybrid system. It's expected to achieve up to 100 mpge (miles per gallon equivalent) which is 8 better than the Chevy Volt and 13 better than the expected efficiency of the Prius plug-in hybrid. We are very excited about the new car and love the redesign and all the options.

Put the BOSS 302 engine :D

[AutoandTechNews]

@HawK271080 Lol yeah! With AWD ;) Now that would be a fun car!

[BenefitMe1000]

They need to make 4.2 V8 Fuel Injected Sport one shit would be dirty. Like driving a maserati GT

[AutoandTechNews]

@BenefitMe1000 a fusion with a 4.2 V8 would definitely be interesting. I'd expect them to put the ecoboost turbo v6 in there first though.

[HawK271080]

@AutoandTechNews yeeeaah and AWD, amazing :D

[AutoandTechNews]

@V8Supercar1 Well the 3.7L v6 gets 31mpg in the mustang, so in a fusion i'd expect similar results with the car having around the same weight. And yeah the hybrid is pretty awesome. I'm excited about the whole platform for the car with all of the offerings.

[V8Supercar1]

@AutoandTechNews: Or even the mustangs 3.7 liter N/A 300HP V6 would be nice too. But im assuming you would prefer the ecoboost v6 because its better on fuel economy? but the one thing I can say is that their hybrid model seems outstanding. 47mpg city is insane! Its good to see them stay ahead of Toyota.

[AutoandTechNews]

@V8Supercar1 I agree completely. I think SVT should put the 3.5L ecoboost v6 from the Taurus SHO in the fusion. Combine that with AWD, stiffer suspension, and new wheels and body add ons, and I bet it would be a great seller.

[V8Supercar1]

@AutoandTechNews: The fuel efficient vehicles is always great. But it would be nice to have a better performance model for those who want it,

[AutoandTechNews]

@V8Supercar1 Yes no V6, but the 2.0L Ecoboost 4 cylinder makes good power. 237hp 250tq isn't too bad for a midsize car, and it has better fuel economy than the v6.
