4 Reasons Drivers Love the 2020 Ford Fusion

The current-generation Ford Fusion has had its fair share of the market since its debut in 2013. And the 2020 Ford Fusion might be the last one. Ford announced its intent to start only making trucks and SUVs in the future, angling away from the passenger market. Despite its looming demise, Ford Fusion remains a stylish sedan with an appealing combination of a roomy interior, impressive handling and ride comfort, and plenty of modern safety features.

1. Fusion Performance

At the base level, the S model is equipped with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine, which offers 175 horsepower. The engine is paired with the front-wheel-drive only. A more impressive combination is a pair of turbocharged EcoBoost engines: a 2.0-liter producing 245 hp and a 1.5-liter offering 181 hp. Both of these engines are available on the SE trim.

Topping out the range is the Titanium trim, which has both four-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive, but only paired with the 2.0-liter engine.

2. Ample Interior

With a logical layout for most controls and space to accommodate all passengers, the Ford Fusion’s interior is a pleasant and serene place to be. The car comfortably accommodates five passengers with generous legroom.

Drivers get a good driving position, thanks to sufficient adjustments to the steering wheel and the seat. The base trims get cloth seats while Titanium models feature perforated leather seats with either Russet or Ebony colors.

3. Generous Trunk and Cargo Space

Ford Fusion offers a roomy 16 cubic-foot trunk, making it one of the best in the segment. The trunk’s low liftover height and the practically-shaped, broad opening is a major appeal to most drivers. The rear backseats can fold down to increase cargo space.

The interior storage space features a sizeable bin between the two front seats, a practical glovebox, and door pockets for smaller items.

4. Infotainment System

Every Fusion variant comes standard with the impressive Co-Pilot360 suite of driver-assist features. The package includes blind-spot monitoring, a rearview camera, pre-collision assist, and high beam headlamps. The S trim uses a basic SYNC interface with voice-activation, a four-speaker sound system, and a 4.2-inch LCD screen. More efforts are given to upper trims, with Titanium getting a 12-speaker Sony sound system and a unique voice-activated navigation system.

Moving up the trims opens up to more impressive infotainment features, including optional moonroof, rear parking sensors, dual-zone climate control, and heated and ventilated front seats. In conclusion, the new Ford Fusion is a good pick for drivers looking for a dynamic sedan car that pairs a comfortable and roomy interior with a decent array of safety features. The crisp styling and capable performance do just enough to keep the car in contention.
