The Ford Fusion was presented three years ago, and we can say without a doubt that this mid-sized sedan is a great deal in this very important market segment. Its 160 horsepower four-cylinder engine will please most, while offering reasonable savings. The 221 horsepower V6 engine will get you a little more smoothness and power, especially if you opt for the all-wheel drive models. The Fusion is a comfortable car, with ample space, that is pleasant to drive. There is also a new hybrid version for 2010.
