The Models
Even when you’re looking at one specific design in a car, you still have many options when it comes to models. If you’re looking at the Fusion, there are eight options!

Some Features
Modern vehicles give us so many options and conveniences when it comes to technology. For example, a Hybrid model contains both a 2.0 L engine along with an electric motor, which can work interdependently or separately, depending on what’s most efficient. You can opt for one of three Ecoboost engine options, including manual, automatic, and paddle shifter transmissions. There is also an intelligent all-wheel-drive system that can prevent and control slipping on the road. Voice-activated technology and auto-start and -stop are just a few other options that make this vehicle technologically appealing.
The Ratings
Probably the most impressive aspect of this car is the 9.6 safety rating. This model achieved the best rating in frontal, side, rear, and roof impact and protection tests. It has been granted the 2013 Best Midsize Car for the Money and the 2013 Best Midsize Car for Families awards. Its weakest areas are in the interior entertainment system, which is described as confusing, and in its bland interior styling. But with an 8.5 overall rating and so many features to choose from, you should just visit a dealership and test drive your Ford Fusion in Plainfield, IL.
