2014 Fusion Hybrid at 36K

2014 Ford Fusion Hybrid S 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)

Because I reviewed this car at 12K and 22K, I will not be comprehensive in this (final) update. I hope my comments are helpful for anyone seriously considering a Fusion Hybrid. No unscheduled service or repair to date. The only break/malfunction in 36K driving has been the RF passenger grab handle, which suffered a broken retention spring. So, thus far, reliability has been absolute. The positives and negatives I mention in my two prior reviews remain valid at this point, from my perspective.
MPG is for real. You just have to know how to drive it

Just got my new Hybrid Titanium yesterday, and on my commute to work (45 miles one way) I averaged 46.4 MPG. With more practice, I'm shooting to top 50. I've read all the complaints about how this car doesn't get the advertised 47 MPG, and what it comes down to is this: The folks who aren't getting the proper MPG are just not driving it correctly. They are heavy footed on the gas and brake - GUARANTEED. you have to ease on/off brake and gas with this thing, use cruise as much as possible, and work to maximize that EV mode. Other than the stellar mileage right off the bat, the car is quiet, smooth and incredibly comfortable.

I bought this car 6 weeks ago for an around the country trip. So far I've put 9000 miles on the car and traveled from Atlanta through the north to Oregon, to South California, and back through the south. 2 weeks after I bought the car, Ford came out with their announcement....sorry...we meant 40 MPG on the road, not 47. That was one of the reasons I had purchased this car. But hey, going to get some money back in September, right? Fuel milage has only once came near the 40 (new number) for the highway. So far, I'm averaging around 36 mpg. That has been disappointing. But the other reasons I bought the car was for the comfort and quiet on on that it delivers!
Gas at $1.50 per gallon?

There is a learning curve on how to drive a hybrid and Ford gives you several coaching tools to help you maximize your mpg. There are a few things you can do up front. One is to make sure there is 35 lbs of pressure in each tire (check tire pressure when tires are cold or haven't be driven on in 8 hrs or more.) Wax your car, slow down and ease on the accelerator and brakes. Use the cruise control in the eco mode whenever possible. Remember, by driving conservatively you also create less wear and tear on your vehicle and for the most part drive safer. As compared to my 08 Accord EXL V6 the combined epa increases from 22 to 47 mpg, hence the $1.50 per gallon of gas.
6 years and 125K miles, still love it.

I bought new in April 2014.. typically put 22K miles on annually. I drive a combo of highway (55mph) and city. I still average 45 mpg most of the year. I've always gotten about 36 mpg in winter (Wisconsin) and about 39 mpg with AC on in summer. Only maintenance I've done so far is brakes at 107K miles besides oil, tires, wipers, etc. Been in two minor accidents (parking lot rear end, ran over a deer). I now have a noise from the underbelly due to cosmetic problems from deer damage. Only cons: My feet are always cold in the winter. Not sure if the heater has always been broke at my feet, or if its just the efficiency of a hybrid. AC is super loud when on. It sounds like an air plane getting ready for takeoff. Trunk space for sure. I am not easy on vehicles... it use it for work (travel across the state, do field work), and I have two boys and two dogs in it for the past 6 years. I would hands down get another one, but will likely get a hatchback with the next hybrid.
