It's Official, Ford Fusion is rolling out it's 2010 model. This car is absolutely awesome. We wante to show you a glimpse of what's to come with this car and how Ford continues to improve it's products while other manufactures have taken a second seat to Ford.
Here are some pictures of what came to our dealership on 3-19-09 for a sneak peak!
Most fuel-efficient mid-size sedan in America.An increase in power once meant a decrease in economy. Not anymore. Take the new 2010 mid-size Fusion. The 2.5L Duratec I-4 engine delivers higher power ratings of 175 horsepower and 172 lbs./ft. of torque. It also puts Fusion at the head of its class in fuel economy with EPA-estimated 23 City/34 Hwy/27 Combined mpg.* And imagine getting 41 miles per gallon and being able to travel over 700 miles on a single tank of gas - in city traffic. That's the kind of mileage you can expect to achieve in an all-new Fusion Hybrid, the most fuel-efficient hybrid sedan in its class.†No compromise - expect nothing less in a Ford Fusion.*Based on EPA-estimated 23 City/34 Hwy/27 Combined mpg, Fusion S model, I-4 with automatic. Class is mid-size sedans. Actual mileage will vary.†EPA estimated 41 City/36 Hwy mpg. Class is mid-size sedan. Actual mileage will vary.

Gas and Hybrid PowertrainsIf you're looking for responsive performance in the most fuel-efficient mid-size sedan in America, the 2.5L Duratec I-4 engine with advanced features like intake variable cam timing technology is the way to go. It cranks out 175 horses and 172 lbs.-ft. of torque, while delivering EPA-estimated 23 City/34 Highway/27 Combined mpg. Pretty impressive!The 3.0L Duratec V6 is equipped with variable-cam timing and flex-fuel (E-85) capability. Its 240 horsepower rating is up more than 19 horses over the previous 3.0L V6.The 3.5L Duratec V6 generating 263 horsepower is the feature powerplant in the new Fusion Sport model, which also comes equipped with a modified sport-tuned suspension, 18-inch painted aluminum wheels, sport trim inside and out, Ford SYNC® Communications and Entertainment System, and much more.And there's the all-new Fusion Hybrid. While so much attention is paid to its outstanding best-in-class fuel economy,† the 2.5L Atkinson-Cycle Hybrid I-4 system combines with the electric motor to generate 191 net horsepower rating, delivering the responsive power you need, when you need it.*Based on EPA-estimated 23 City/34 Hwy/27 Combined mpg, Fusion S model, I-4 with automatic.

PERFORMANCE:
6-Speed Manual and Automatic TransmissionsBy designing a transmission with more gears, engineers can calibrate its wider range of ratios to deliver more responsive acceleration at the low end and higher fuel economy at the high overdrive gear. In the case of the new Ford Fusion, Ford engineers used the 6-speed transmission to help achieve best-in-class fuel economy.*All transmissions in Ford Fusion gas models now have six speeds. A 6-speed manual comes standard in the Fusion S and SE with the 2.5L Duratec I-4 engine, while the SEL I-4 model gets a smooth-shifting and quiet-operating 6-speed automatic (optional with S and SE).V6-powered Fusion models feature the 6-speed SelectShift™ automatic transmission. You can override automatic operation and enjoy the fun-to-drive experience of a manual transmission, providing total control over gear selection and performance feel. The 2.5L Atkinson-Cycle Hybrid I-4 engine is teamed with an electronically controlled Continuously Variable Transmission (eCVT). As its name suggests, this transmission is designed to provide seamless shifting because there is no progression of gear changes in the usual sense. What's more, because the eCVT can compensate for changing vehicle speeds, it allows engine speed to remain at its level of peak efficiency, helping make the Fusion Hybrid the most fuel-efficient hybrid sedan in its class.†*Based on EPA-estimated 23 City/34 Hwy/27 Combined mpg, Fusion S model, I-4 with automatic.

Voice Actiated Navigation System
The optional voice-activated Navigation System provides more advanced features in the new 2010 Fusion. Navigational aids include detailed freeway exit, turn and ramp transition lane guidance; street name announcement; and current location display. Also part of the system is a 10-gibabyte hard drive for storing photos, ripping CDs, and managing music with the Jukebox function. And there's the greater wealth of travel information the SIRIUS Travel Link™ service provides,* such as real-time traffic and weather conditions plus area gas stations with fuel prices. The system comes with a single-disc CD/DVD player and Sony® sound system featuring 12 speakers including two subwoofers. Watch a DVD when the vehicle is in Park - a really nice feature. What's more, the Hybrid Energy Flow Display lets you track the powertrain's three main modes of operation (Hybrid Drive, Electric Drive, and Idle Charging) and overall fuel economy.*Real-time traffic monitoring available in select markets. Some features are unavailable while driving. Service not available in Alaska or Hawaii.

These are just a few updates to this car. It's already been a hit with Ford and I want to challenge you to come and drive one before you make a decision on purchasing. Go out and drive a Honda and Toyota, then come and drive the Fusion. I'm positive you'll be surprised at what this car can do.
In conclusion, I'd also like to get a chance to earn your business an any Ford Product. If you have a price in mind from another dealership??? I'd like an opportunity to beat it.
Sincerely,
Mike Weiland
