Road TestSE Hybrid 4-cyl CVT
In a class generally known for bland styling and a lack of driving
excitement, the redesigned 2013 Fusion is a fresh, charismatic newcomer. But
like some promising and talented celebrities, it has just enough quirks to
erode your enthusiasm.
The new Fusion looks upscale and stylish, and it handles like a really good
European sports sedan. We bought three versions: a top-trim Titanium, a mid-
trim SE, and the SE Hybrid. All versions provide a composed, civilized ride
that's as good as cars costing twice as much. The cabin is blessedly quiet.
The Titanium version is the best-handling midsized sedan we've tested. And
the Hybrid model posted the best fuel economy we've measured in a midsized
sedan: 39 mpg overall.
So what are the problems? One is Ford's pair of EcoBoost turbocharged four-
cylinder engines that fall short in both acceleration and fuel economy,
compared with competitive models. For example, the gas mileage of our SE,
equipped with an EcoBoost 1.6-liter four cylinder, is only 25 mpg overall,
which is below the 26 mpg average in this class and far below the 30 and 31
mpg we got from our Honda Accord and Nissan Altima, respectively, even with
their larger 2.4- and 2.5-liter engines. Moreover, 0-to-60-mph acceleration
is about a second slower than many peer models. Similarly, at 22 mpg overall
, our Titanium, with its 2.0-liter four cylinder, gets 4 mpg less than the
larger 3.5-liter V6s in the Accord and Toyota Camry. And it's a second
slower to 60 mph.
Another beef is the MyFord Touch infotainment system, which handles audio,
climate, and communications functions. Optional in mid-trim Fusions and
compulsory in high-trim versions, it's needlessly complicated and finicky to
use. Cabin space is a little snug, too, which compromises the driving
position and rear-seat room. The Fusion's sleek form reduces function,
cutting into outward visibility. And our cars, which we bought soon after
the Fusion went on sale, have multiple ill-fittingbody and trim parts.
For many people, those gripes may be trumped by the new Fusion's dashing
styling and stellar driving experience. But they were enough to drag the
cars' scores down and keep them out of the top tier in our midsized-sedan
ratings. The Fusion is too new for us to have reliability information, but
other recently redesigned Ford models, including the Explorer and Focus,
have been markedly trouble-prone.
Why buy one:
Great steering and accomplished ride and handling makes it fun to drive.
The svelte styling is a breath of fresh air in the upright family sedan
market.
The Hybrid model delivers outstanding fuel economy and has a refined
powertrain.
Why not buy one:
Ford's small EcoBoost engines fall short in performance, fuel economy, and
overall refinement.
The MyFord Touch infotainment system is a deal-killer for some. It's
frustrating and distracting, with small, fiddly, touch-activated buttons on
both the center dash and touch screen.
The cabin is slightly snug, the rear-seat space is tight, and the view out
is limited.
Sticker prices are thousands higher than some competitors, although we
expect widespread discounting.
Our early-production cars have some slap-dash assembly quality.
Viable alternatives:
Honda Accord
Toyota Camry
Hyundai Sonata GLS
Best version/options to get:
We suggest getting the mid-trim SE with leather seating and optional 18-inch
wheels. Consider the zippy 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine,
despite its unimpressive fuel economy. Another good package is the SE Hybrid
with the leather-seat package. We'd skip the MyFord Touch control system.
The Driving Experience
Handling: The Fusion is a delight to drive. It tracks your intended path
like it's hard-wired to your brain and clings to the road like a bona fide
sports car. The electric power steering is ideally weighted, with reassuring
road feel.
Handling differences between the three versions we tested became apparent
only when they were pushed hard at our track. The Titanium, with its 18-inch
wheels, exhibited the best cornering grip and proved truly enjoyable,
balanced and predictable at its limits. Our SE, with its 17-inch wheels,
displayed a little less cornering grip, although we expect SE models
equipped with the optional 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine and 18-inch wheels
to handle like the Titanium.
The electronic stability control system allows the rear wheels to slide out
a little at the car's limits before it cuts in. The Hybrid had the most
tendency to hang its tail out. While this slight fish-tailing can be
engaging for enthusiasts, it may be a bit disconcerting for some drivers and
it somewhat limited the Fusions' speed through our avoidance maneuver.
Powertrain: Our tested 1.6-liter turbocharged EcoBoost four cylinder put out
173 horsepower on regular fuel (which is how we tested it), and 178 with
premium. It serves up decent performance overall, but it needs to work hard
and sounds gruff when revved. Given the subpar 25 mpg overall and lackluster
performance, the $795 upcharge for this engine is a bit hard to swallow.
Our tested Fusion lacked the $295 start/stop system; it shuts off the engine
to save fuel when stopped and smoothly restarts it when it's time to move
on.
The top-of-the-line engine is a 2.0-liter turbocharged four cylinder, rated
at 231 horsepower on regular fuel and 240 with premium. (We tested it with
regular.) It delivers ample power on demand but lacks the creamy smoothness
of competing V6s. If you don't mind the mediocre fuel economy, the 2.0 is
the preferable choice. It's standard on the Titanium and optional on the SE.
The Hybrid's powertrain is very impressive. It's slick and refined, and
squeezes out an eye-popping 39 mpg overall and 41 mpg on the highway, using
regular fuel. While that's nowhere near the EPA estimate (47 mpg/city/
highway/combined), it's still excellent. Rated at 188 horsepower from its
normally-aspirated 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine and electric hybrid system
, the Hybrid delivers competitive acceleration. With a light foot on the
throttle you can ease up to about 35 mph using electric power alone. The car
will also run electric-only in undemanding highway cruises below 62 mph,
though it's a little tricky to keep up highway speeds without firing up the
gas engine.
Most Fusions will have a smooth, responsive six-speed automatic transmission
. The Hybrid uses a continuously variable transmission; you can opt for a
six-speed manual in the SE. The 2.0-liter engine brings a Sport mode that
changes shift points for more performance. Steering-wheel paddles allow for
manual shifting.
The Fusion offers all-wheel-drive but only in the top-level Titanium trim,
which carries a starting price of $33,000 and can go much higher. If you
want to get all-wheel-drive midsized sedan for under $30,000, the Subaru
Legacy remains the only choice.
Ride comfort: The ride is composed, civilized, and steady. The suspension
absorbs bumps well with well controlled body motions. The highway ride is a
serene cruise. We noticed only miniscule differences between our three
versions.
Noise: The cabin stays blessedly quiet, with the hush broken only by the
climate fan on brisk mornings and by high engine revs. The Hybrid's interior
stays nearly silent, except for the rare occasions when its engine has to
rev hard.
Braking: The SE and Titanium turned in excellent braking performance, with
short stops on both wet and dry pavement. The Hybrid's stopping distances
were somewhat longer, likely due to its low-rolling-resistance tires, and
its pedal feel was a little grabby. A display on the Hybrid's dash gives you
brownie points for smooth stops, helping to maximize fuel economy by
recovering energy for the battery, but it's a little ironic that a car that
grades you on braking has a touchy pedal.
Headlights: Low beams provide good reach to the front and sides, but they
aren't as intense as the best headlights and have a sharp upper cutoff. High
beams shine a good distance and are a bit brighter, but they still aren't
as bright as the best lights.
Inside The Cabin
Driving position: Drivers will find plenty of headroom and fore-and-aft seat
travel, but the seating space is a little narrow and there's not as much
room to stretch out as there is in most family sedans. Even short drivers
found it snug. The shoulder belt's upper anchor doesn't have enough
adjustment range to keep the belt from rubbing some drivers' necks.
Visibility: The car's sleek styling takes a toll on the view out. The roof
pillars inhibit the view to all four corners and the sides, and the modest
glass area and short rear window don't help. The outside mirrors are coupled
with small convex lenses, which can help you spot cars in your blind zones.
A rear-view camera is available only with the cumbersome MyFord Touch
system.
Front seat comfort: The front seats are well shaped and comfortable, with
good lower-back support. The leather seats are more supportive than the
cloth seats, where we found the padding somewhat spongy on long trips.
Rear seat comfort: Rear seating is a little tight. Leg and knee room are
just adequate, and tall people may find their heads brushing the roof. Three
adults can fit, but they won't be happy for long.
Access: Climbing in and out of the front seats is fairly easy, but it takes
some ducking to access the rear.
Controls and gauges: Controls for audio, climate, and communications come in
three versions. The basic set-up, standard on most trim levels, uses
conventional buttons and large knobs for climate and radio functions. A lot
of ancillary buttons are closely packed together, but they¿re well
labeled and good-sized. Some on-screen radio menus are way too convoluted,
but fortunately their functions can be handled through physical buttons.
Both our Fusion SE and SE Hybrid were scored with this basic dashboard.
The next level, MyFord Touch, uses a touch screen for audio, climate, phone,
and navigation, flush-mounted touch-sensitive buttons on the center stack
for basic climate settings, and regular knobs for radio volume and tuning.
Many screen menus are overly complex and slow to respond, so we often had to
tap more than once to achieve a desired result. Most of the center stack's
touch-sensitive switches are also hard to locate without taking your eyes
from the road. Cranking up the heat, for example, just shouldn¿t
require this level of attention.
The top-level dash, standard in the Titanium trim, combines MyFord Touch
with a high-end Sony audio system. You get one giant knob for the volume but
lose the station-tuning knob. Climate and radio touch buttons are jumbled
together, making it a nuisance to find the right touch spot quickly.
The optional navigation system is more complex than it needs to be, although
you can program a route by simply speaking an address.
Electronic connections: Ford¿s Sync system lets you use voice commands
for audio, climate, and phone tasks. It's easy to pair a smart phone with
the system, and then use it to stream music through the car¿s audio
system and access apps. For instance, by using SyncMyRide, you could
download destinations to your phone, call them up from the car by voice, and
then let the system use your phone to access route guidance. This provides
navigation capability in cars without the full-navigation feature.
Establishing a Bluetooth link to your smart phone is fairly easy, but when
you¿re streaming music or audio books the display screen provides
little identifying information and limited navigation abilities. Ford is
currently updating MyFord Touch, adding more up-to-date features and
improved Bluetooth functionality.
Interior fit and finish: The interior has a modern, upscale look and
numerous soft-touch surfaces. Switchgear looks and feels good, the fat
steering wheel is easy to grasp, and the shift lever feels substantial. We
were appalled, however, at the number of finish defects we found in our
early-production samples, especially in the pricey Titanium. The front doors
were misaligned, numerous trim pieces didn't line up, and the headliner was
lumpy around the sunroof and ragged at the forward edge. In our SE version,
the hood didn¿t line up. And in all our Fusions the interior plastic
molding had some sharp edges and the center-console lid seemed flimsy.
Cargo room: Cabin storage is generous up front. But beverages in the front
cup holders get in the way of using the center armrest.
The trunk is good-sized but the trunk lid doesn¿t open very wide and
barely balances in its fully open position. If you¿re parked on an
incline it might not stay open or could come down on your head. The Hybrid's
trunk is a bit smaller, since its drive battery occupies some space, but
the sacrifice is less than in most hybrids. In all versions the 60/40-split
rear seatbacks fold down to extend the cargo capacity. The Hybrid has an
inflation kit in lieu of a spare tire.
Safety Notes
Safety belts: All seats have lap-and-shoulder belts; the front pair has
pretensioners and force limiters.
Air bags: Side air bags protect front occupants and curtain air bags protect
front and rear outboard occupants. A knee air bag is standard for the
driver. Sensors withhold the deployment of the front passenger's frontal air
bag if they detect a child-sized passenger there.
Head restraints: Front and rear outboard head restraints are tall enough to
protect an adult, even when lowered. The rear center restraint must be
raised to provide any protection.
Crash avoidance systems: Electronic stability control, traction control, and
antilock brakes are standard. Ford's standard MyKey system lets parents
program a key for their teen driver to use, and they can set limits on speed
, Bluetooth phone use, and radio volume.
Driving with kids: Most forward- and rear-facing child seats should prove
secure using belts alone. LATCH anchors for the outboard seats are very
difficult to access. The parcel shelf provides three top-tether anchors.
Reliability
We do not have data to predict reliability, this model is new.
Tested model: 2013 SE Hybrid sedan, 2.0-liter 4-cyl. hybrid, CVT
Major options: None.
This road test applies to the current model year of this vehicle.
