Downsized Engine Autos

The Ford Fusion 2013 Takes NAIAS 2012 by Storm

— January 12, 2012 — Autos
Ford has blasted through expectations and set a new high for competitors with the Ford Fusion 2013 Hybrid model. The vehicle boasts an exterior that screams sedan-seduction while its specs will surely have other auto manufacturers choking in the dust.

The car features a 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine that will replace the V6, letting drivers know that Ford's excellent performance will be matched, with the only difference being less time spent at the gas station. While driving, one can expect features such as the MyFord Touch system (a customizable touchscreen that one can use to set temperatures and even in-car lighting to their preference), lane departure warning, parking assistants and blind spot monitoring. Finally, the voice activated sync feature will combine with the MyFord to allow drivers to control their car without having to take their eyes off the road.

The Ford Fusion 2013 Hybrid has shaped a new level of achievement.
