Ford has stepped up their game with this version of the Fusion. The twin turbo V6 breaks the 300 HP ceiling with a 325 HP, 380 lb/ft engine with quick response & a flat torque curve. Zero to sixty in low 5 second range - the straight line acceleration is awesome for a 4000 pound vehicle. The 6 speed automatic transmission is a bit on the sluggish side for upshifts, but this is a car that is designed to be a daily driver that offers a bit of fun when open roads beckon, not a true performance car. Downshifts in Sport mode are a bit more crisp. The ride is pleasant in normal mode - quiet & smooth. In Sport mode it gets a bit more stiff and the active noise cancellation switches off, so you get a bit of induction noise from the twin turbos as well as a bit of synthetic sound piped in. It isn't the roar of a Porsche being challenged, but remember this is primarily a family car that is upgraded. The AWD keeps you firmly planted during spirited cornering, and the brakes are adequate though not awesome. The safety technology available on this model include accident warning with automatic braking, pre-tensioning of brakes when obstacles are detected, automatic following & braking with the Adaptive Cruise Control, Active Dampening of the suspension with electronic stability control, automatic lane departure monitoring with active steering, rear obstacle detection, and pedestrian detection with automatic braking. It is a vehicle with advanced technology that equals the best the Germans have to offer. All of this in a car that you can get out the door loaded for about 40 K, which won't buy you a similar German car stripped down. It is a great value! A practical family car that offers near BMW / Audi level acceleration & handling with good if not great brakes. If Ford can get a bit more road feel into the steering, add a bit more style (leather dash, please!) to the interior, and make the automatic transmission a bit more crisp, they will have an Audi slayer. As it is it is a much better value than the German comparables - you give up a little but get it at a price the Germans cannot approach for the same loaded vehicle.

Love My Fusion Sport

Traded in my 2014 Fusion SE w/luxury package for a Certified Pre Owned Fusion Sport. Like many I have been extremely pleased with the power and performance. It out performs our 2015 Mustang Ecoboost, although the Mustang does get better fuel economy. This thing makes driving to work fun every day. It certainly surprises many when you accelerate away from them.

I got talked into buying this stupid 2017 Ford Fusion Sport AWD when new. Power windows went out, steering wheel got recalled and at only 14,000 miles the check engine light comes on!

Bought this car because I'm a soon to be retired old drag racer. While I can't afford a Camaro ZL1 or Mustang GT350 this car fills my everyday need for speed. Twin turbo, 325 HP, AWD, great handling, great sound when you hit it in sport mode are what I got. Sure, I had the dead battery issue right after I got it, but Ford replaced the battery and reprogrammed the computer and no problems since. Last two cars were a Hyundai Sonata Limited and a Kia Optima SXL. Both nice cars with 2.0L turbos but declining horsepower year to year kept me from going back. Nice looking, nice ride, comfortable, and sporty. Transmission can be slow on downshifts and inconsistent on upshifts but not really a problem. Handles great in snow and wet conditions. Will get out and blow the doors off a lot off a lot of fancy cars who think it's only a Fusion. I like it.

I bought this car new in 2017 for $34K with the 400A option package. Since then I've only had it in the shop for two repairs: early on for an oil pan leak and later for power windows reprogram when they wouldn't go up and stay closed when previously only opened 2" or so. Now, 45K miles later, I still love this car! I was truly saddened by the news that Ford discontinued the Fusion and especially the Sport! Fuel Economy: I drive this car like I stole it, yet I average 21 mpg. I only use ethanol-free fuel...not Premium as Edmunds indicates as "Required". Handling: A comfortable ride when driven gently and then firm and responsive when pushed and in "Sport" mode. The car has more cargo room than all its competitors. Cost to own is much lower than Edmunds reports and than its competitors. Bottom Line: When it comes time to replace this car...I'm not sure what I'm going to do. Funny Story: Ford dealers keep sending me "Time to Upgrade" notices that offer me about $10K for the car (local retail is $23K+) and offering to "upgrade" me to an Escape! LOL I guess the marketing folks are clueless on the differences between sports sedans and compact SUVs! I guess I should have guessed that from a company that slapped a pony-car name on an electric crossover. So sad...
