Loved my 2012 Ford Fusion!

This is a perfectly sized and appointed sedan with good handling and a quiet, smooth ride. I bought it new based on those features, its looks, and its 5 crash test ratings. I owned it for 7 years, 58K miles, and only needed maintenance LOF, transmission flush, cabin air filter, and tires. Sadly, I lost it to a collision but it held its value well. The only downside was that I never got better than 20 mpg city, 27 mpg on the freeway.

Wasn't sure about buying a Hybrid until I test drove this one. Was concerned up how much get up and go a hybrid had so I took it onto an incline ramp onto the highway and had no problem accelerating onto the highway. Really love how quiet and smooth the car rides.

Nice Car - dependable so far

I like the car for the most part. The car rides nice and smooth. Controls are well placed and with Sync update plays phone apps well. It's not going to beat many other cars off the line thought, but still has enough "get up and go" to get you in to highway traffic safely and once cruising has enough pep to pass..

Great basic car with decent acceleration for a 4-cylinder in a mid-size car. I have only owned it a few weeks and it has 83K miles, but it seems to be in good shape and solid. One year update: the car has been trouble free. Still happy with it!

I went to the car lot to look at a Mustang, as it was gone. The sales person showed me a 2008 an a 2012 fusion, I went home slept on it decided to get the 2012 sle an I'm so glad I did, I have never in my life had a family car as I am a single father with two beautiful daughters. So I'm glad I did the fuel milage is awesome oh highway pretty good city, but the performance is awesome for a V6 family car, the car rides great plenty of room front an back an in the trunk. It drives great Handel's great no road noise. Oh I forgot to mention I bought this car used with over 113000. Still the care is great but one thing, in the morning when I start the car, the starter makes a noise after it starts but afterm it warms up it doesn't do it. Other than that I'd give the car 10 stars. What helps my daughters love the car, an when I need the power it's there, 3.0 v6 fwd.
