Used Ford Fusion Energi for Sale in Charlotte, NC

After two years I find I have been to a gas station 6 times and have used 36 gallons for the two years with average MPG at 168 MPG with my short trips and 7.1 cents cost per KW charge plugging it in to 120 Volt over night every day. I have been to Ford dealer service dept. 4 times once to fix a tire and twice for service and a yearly state inspection, I have a recall on the cars modem and my light ring a round the charging plug had a quarter of the four quarters of the ring burn out fix is under warranty, my total cost to own to date has been under $300.00 dollars and have drive it just over 7000 thousand mile to date. If I have anything bad to say it would be that I hoped it would be a hatch back for more trunk space and have a spare tire. Ford offers road side aid but I still would have liked a spare tire. My wish is that Ford would offer a Mini Van larger battery more space to haul and a spare tire, but there is not a bad thing I can say about my Ford PHEV as it does the job with both class and comfort in transporting us to and from any place we choose to go. 2016 Ford Fusion Energi plug-in hybrid really does get 88+ MPG plus from the time I bought it May 23rd 2015 I just have over 125 miles on the odometer got every option but park assist I traded my 2010 Mercury Milan Hybrid that just got 35 MPG if there is a down side they did not offer the Ice Blue color that my Milan had so I settled for White a $500+ dollar option. I also did the math and it is cheaper to charge the battery on 120 volt house current than use NRG EVGO or Blink 220 volt charging stations, they need to design a better truck space is so dear and no spare tire you get a flat you have to call and wait for a Ford tow truck. I got it at such a reduced price that I can live with that. Thanks Ford for nothing as you hang any Ford Fusion owner out to dry with telling the world you are dropping the model in 2020. Even better is the loss in value of any sucker to own a Fusion expecting it to last longer than the Pinto! I love my Ford Fusion Energi even with the two recalls, the last to fix a steering wheel bolt. I love the mileage I get 180+ MPG but now I must find a way to trade it off before the price drops and you?re not offering any replacement deals on the next PHEV you might offer. I am thinking my next PHEV will be a Chrysler Pacifica Limited PHEV at least they are offering a larger battery, and space to carry people and things. Ford you are just so sad.

I bought my 2016 Ford Fusion Energi this March 22 2016 and could not be more pleased. It is good looking, comfortable, good handling and I get great mileage. My car was filled up at the dealership when I bought it and I did not put any gas in it until my birthday three months later on June 22! I did NOT need gas since it registered three quarters full but I was curious about my mileage. Nearly all of my driving is in town within the 19 mile electric range which, so far has proven fairly accurate. When I filled up on June 22, I had driven 716 miles and it took exactly 5.138 gallons to fill it up! Again, my driving allows me to use it in electric mode nearly 100% of the time, I only drive it in hybrid mode when I visit my son (28 mile round trip), my daughter (22 mile round trip) , or any trip over the electric mode limit which is not often. I do wish ford would place the battery system between the frame like Tesla to allow more trunk space and I agree that the Mytouch system takes a while to learn, but those are my only points of concern. At my electric rate I calculate I may spend around $8 per month to charge the car but I have been unable to detect a change in my bill.

The plug-in option seems somewhat of a gimmick now that I've used it. In the winter, the climate controls use a lot of the plug-in battery capacity, and likely during the summer too. The plug in battery only lasts for about 10 miles because of the heat or a.c.. So it might be most useful in moderate climates where you don't heat or cool your car. The plug-in hybrid has very little trunk space. Careful, the car rides low, so watch the curbs while parking. The windshield constantly fogs over if the temperature is lower than 50 degrees. Ford says that's normal. This is the first vehicle that has ever done this. The lane sensing feature is annoying and it affects the steering. There is pressure on the steering wheel frequently that feels like the steering will lock up. Ford says this is normal. Really? The more I drive this car the less I like it. Resale value drops $17,000 the moment you drive it off the lot proving the car is overpriced. I used to be a loyal Ford owner and have bought a new one every two years on average. Ford dealerships want to charge you for items covered under warranty and lie about known problems with Ford vehicles.
