2017 Ford Fusion Pleases AutoGuide.com Pundits

Has the midsize sedan segment been calling your name? Well, if so, we here at Shawnee Mission Ford encourage you to heed its cries -- and then turn your attention to ours, the 2017 Fusion. And why's that, exactly? AutoGuide.com Managing Editor Jodi Lai explains all in the clip below; have a look and listen right here: Though we're not typically ones to play favorites, we must nonetheless admit that the Fusion's mid-level engine, a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder, holds a special place in our heart. Available with the SE and standard on the Titanium and Platinum, this turbo-four is rated at a robust 240 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque. It receives front-wheel drive by default, while an all-wheel system is optional. And while its performance chops may be its main attraction, we enjoy the fuel efficiency of this engine, too. When had with front-wheel drive, for example, it'll achieve 25 mpg combined (21 city/31 highway). To learn more about this dapper four-door, or to take one for a spin, we suggest you set a course for our Shawnee, KS location. Our automotive aces are on hand to address your every query about the Fusion, or any other Ford model within the current lineup.
