4/17/22 almost 110,000 miles of carefree service. No issues to report. Still looks great, and runs great. And I will still hold on to it a while longer. 10-17-21 now approaching 100,000 miles, and still trouble free. Only oil changes and 2 air filters. This is a great car. Still averaging over 85 mpg. And still as quiet as ever. (I still miss a trunk, and often wonder if I should have went with the CMAX energi) but that doesnt matter since ford axed that car also. Looks like I will hang on to my fusion for a few more years to let this whole pandemic fueled price inflation calm down. Over 89,000 miles today, and all of them trouble free. Still achieving 86 mpg, a bit lower but I am driving 5 miles further to work. (About 29 miles one way. )But back to the review. The car is doing fine. This car still presents like a new car. I still wish that Ford would reconsider their plan to stop building cars. Maybe with the renewed concern for the environment Ford will reconsider their "all truck" construction plan. I have to believe there are other consumers, like me that like to have a passenger car, and have no need for a gas thirsty SUV. Car is paid off and owes me nothing. I am strongly considering an all electric to replace this car with, just waiting for them to become more available in my area. (Florida) I still like my Fusion Energi way better then I liked my Prius. Going on 65000 trouble free miles. I still love this car. Way more luxury then my old Prius, and still over 85 mpg Great car, extremely quiet ride. Very well done interior design. I bought this car, mostly because I felt that I could not afford to buy a Prius Prime. Being a Ford, I could find a slightly used one, and get a great deal. I could hardly find a prime, and if I did it was across the country, and cost "new" price. I am glad that I did but the Fusion. This car is very luxurious, way more then the upscale Prime. Real leather seating, not like the Enviroplastic synthetic leather found in the Prime. Great radio! And one other benefit worth noting, people do not automatically have a distaste for you, or blow their horn at you if you are going less then 20 miles per hour over the speed limit. (this happened often in my Prius) To be honest, either car is a great car, we still own the Prius, it is driving my son to college, with only 145000 miles I feel that he will probably own it through out his whole 4 years. But if you are looking for a great plug-in alternative, with twice the luxury, for less price, then Fusion Energi is your car. I charge the car at home, and they allow us to charge free at work. Currently I am averaging 160 mpg. I fill up about once a month, when I get down to 1/4 of a tank. (my ride to work is about 33 miles, so I burn gas for about 7 miles each way.) And we also use it when ever the family goes out. So far it has been perfect. I am only slightly unhappy at Ford, because I just heard that they may discontinue production of this car in the US. I cant help but wonder why, when they seem to have hit a home run with this.

Great Car Needs A Few Minor Tweeks

I bought one recently and I love car. I am averaging over 600 miles a tank as well. My previous car was a 2008 Honda Accord EX-L with Navigation and while the 2017 Fusion Energi Platinum is a nice upgrade, there are a few things that Ford needs to address (I'm hoping someone from Ford looks at this for feedback. Even though it's minor). The antenna is dated. Most new cars now have a shark fin antenna and this one doesn't. The SiriusXM radio system loses its signal way too often from blind spots compared to my old Accord's SirusXM radio system that came out almost a decade ago. The navigation's layout for when heading to a destination doesn't read as smoothly as Honda's. Last, the Navigation's address book is a disaster compared to Honda's. 1) there's only one folder to save addresses instead of two; 2) the saved entries aren't able to be alphabetized; 3) There's a space limit on number of addresses that can be saved. I believe it's 45 addresses which isn't a lot for me because I'm in sales and use my car all the time. I can't imagine that much space in a computer is needed to save an address?

Amazing car

We are coming from a 2000 Lexus Rx300. The 2017 Ford Fusion Energi SE Luxury (who gives cars 5 different names?) is an awesome car, the nicest car I have ever ridden in. We gave up our Tesla Model 3 reservation to get this car, after renting a Ford Fusion SE Hybrid for 8 days. Gas mileage in hybrid mode is consistently 42-44 mpg without really any lack of power. The Sync3 system is extremely easy to use (think : MacIntosh computer or iPhone ease of use). It syncs with my android phone over bluetooth as I get into the car, without me having to do anything. The 3-level heated seats are great. Visibility is great (i'm 6'1"), the car is spacious, the leather is extremely nice. Headroom is extreme (I got a sunroof and still have good headroom.) Performance is a little sluggish 45-60 mph but then again, I was happy with my Honda Civic which did 0-60 in 11.5 seconds. The 11-speaker base stereo IS THE BEST CAR STEREO I HAVE EVER HEARD (it beats the deluxe nakamichi stereo in our Lexus, easily.) The range (600+ miles) is outstanding. This is definitely the most BEAUTIFUL car on the road today, right up there with a Tesla Model S. The instrument cluster is like a videogame; it grades you on energy recovery in braking & grows green leaves when you save more gas, I love to get a highscore of 100% in energy recovery! My 6' sons are happy in the back seat, HOWEVER, the trunk holds only 5 bags of groceries and maybe 1 or 2 gallons of milk if you pack creatively. I recommend using soft duffel bags on a long trip, to take maximum advantage of the 8 cu ft trunk space! I hope that Ford produces an update that will hide the batteries beneath the rear floor of the trunk, that would make the car optimal. I downrated the Nav system which could not voice-recognize our home street, "Cather Avenue". Android Auto and Apple Carplay work great, but many of the Carplay feature require a wired connection to the car (not a Ford problem; an Apple problem.)

Magic Carpet feel of driving a car

Excellent ride in all respects. The only possible drawback would be with the trunk if a full size trunk is needed because the battery takes up about 1/2 of the typical trunk space. You do get a large glove compartment, storage in the center console and doors and use of the entire rear seat if not occupies. However for families that often require the use of an entire trunk with rear seat occupies, this would need to be a considerstion in the purchase of electric vehicles such the Fusion energi. : )
