2010 Ford Fusion Model Information
MSRP: $19,270 - $27,675
MSRP: $27,270 - $32,675 (Hybrid)
The 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid offers
buyers an earth-friendly alternative to regular mid-size sedans. Its hybrid
system provides reduced emissions, increased fuel economy, while still providing
all the normal useful mid-size sedan features. The Fusion Hybrid uses a 2.5
liter four-cylinder engine in combination with an electric motor powered by a
nickel-metal hydride battery. To link the gas engine and electric motor
together, a continuously variable transmission, also known as a CVT, is used to
optimally match the power and gearing. Safety features include electronic
stability and traction control, security system, six-airbags, and a tire
pressure monitoring system.
Customers eager to purchase America's most
fuel-efficient midsize sedan, the 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid, can take advantage of
a $3,400 tax credit from the federal government, the highest credit amount ever
offered for hybrids purchased or placed in service after December 31, 2005.
Fusion Hybrid's class-leading EPA-estimated 41 mpg rating in the city and 36 mpg
on the highway, which tops the Toyota Camry Hybrid by 8 mpg in the city and 2
mpg on the highway, helped Fusion garner this significant credit amount, which
is based on a vehicle's potential fuel efficiency. Combined, Fusion's fuel
savings and tax incentive can help significantly offset the premium to the
customer for hybrid-electric technology over a conventional gasoline-powered
vehicle. Courtesy of www.fordvehicles.com
