2016 Ford Fusion Energi Titanium 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)

2016 Titanium, Plug in Hybrid. Leather seats I was looking for the gas mileage with a decent ride. Thank you all for the input on this car. The overall reviews were right. It has a quiet ride in town and on the highway, struts are clunky as predicted. The gas mileage in town and on the highway is as posted by Edmunds. Trunk is small as stated in other reviews. The Car is comfortable and easy to drive , Steering is solid, and the brakes are easy to get use to. Car is predictable and has power is enough for every day driving. Instrument cluster shows what and how much power you are using. Two week and a thousand mile on it the touch screen Nav / radio / Heat /phone are not very intuitive while driving at 70 MPH. The manual radio and heat controls save you some frustration as you can adjust things on the fly without pulling up the needed pages on the touch screen. I bought the Ford for the hybrid "full size" car ride and best mileage. I love the short trips on 100% electric and I can remote start the car for summer climate control without it running the gas engine. Over all, I'm pleased with the car.

I downsized from an SUV to get better gas mileage and I was super happy. I get about 20 electric miles and then 50 mph in hybrid mode after that. For the first 3 months I owned the car I only got gas once!

Great Economical Transportation

This is the most economical car I have ever owned. It's very comfortable as well. I love the Plug-in Hybrid. With my city driving, I have to put gas in it at least every 1 or 2 months. The only down sides to the vehicle are 1) the trunk space can only handle one suitcase; 2) It's a little rough getting in and out of for us seniors...hope to find a PHEV SUV for my next vehicle.

Plug-In Hybrid - a real surprise

2016 Ford Fusion Energi SE Luxury 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)
1 of 1 people found this review helpful

Both of our cars were becoming expensive to own and we decided to try and transition to a one-car family. Having owned a Hybrid before, we wanted to replace our cares with something somewhat eco-friendly. Our search put us into a this Energi. As an avid researcher, my expectations were clear. My wife was not so clear on hers, mostly she was going with the flow. After much trepidation, a AAA Pre-Purchase Inspection, and driving the car on TWO one-day test drives fom the dealership, we purchased it with 82,000 miles. WOW! It's a joy to drive, solid, quiet, and COMFORTABLE? We both have had back surgeries and every time my wife gets into the car with me she says "I can't believe how comfortable these seats are!" We love it. We' put almost 200 miles on it so far and even with only a 20 mile EV range, can barely see the gas tank needle moving. What a great vehicle.

Fusion engeri Navigation is worthless

I waited to buy the 2017 to get the new technology. It is horrendous. I paid $700 for a navigation system that has missing exits on major interstate highways. Highway 5 that goes from Canada from Mexico. I contacted Ford and they refused to do ANYTHING! Waze and Android Auto which are FREE both outperform this lousy navigation. It can't recognize your voice, losses your downloads, contacts etc. can't find over 50%of the things asked of it. I can't get it uninstalled. Do not buy this no matter how cheap. I am constantly frustrated by it interfering with Android Auto.
