What Is the 2020 Ford Fusion?

The Ford Fusion is a mid-size sedan that seats up to five people. A 175-horsepower, 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine is standard, but a selection of turbocharged four-cylinder engines is available. Hybrid and plug-in hybrid (Energi) variants are also offered. All engines pair with a six-speed automatic transmission, except for the hybrid versions, which have a continuously variable automatic. Front-wheel drive is standard and all-wheel drive is optional. Competitors include the Honda Accord, Toyota Camry and Hyundai Sonata.

What’s New on the 2020 Ford Fusion?

The FordPass Connect telematics system is now standard.

What Features in the 2020 Ford Fusion Are Most Important?

Standard active safety features include forward collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, blind spot warning with rear cross-traffic alert and automatic high-beam headlights.

Available features include adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability, dual-zone automatic air conditioning, power-adjustable front seats, leather-trimmed seats, heated and ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, a power moonroof, an 8-inch touchscreen multimedia system, navigation, a Sony premium stereo and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone connectivity.

Should I Buy the 2020 Ford Fusion?

The Fusion remains a good-driving mid-size sedan with noteworthy ride and handling. The available Sync 3 touchscreen multimedia system is easy to use, but the car’s backseat feels cramped and thick pillars limit forward visibility. The Fusion was last redesigned for the 2013 model year, and Ford says this is the last generation of the sedan. Going forward, the automaker is turning the bulk of its attention to SUVs and trucks.

2020 Fusion plug-in hybrid

I've owned the 2020 Fusion plug-hybrid for two years. I have gotten as high as 33 miles on battery. Slow starts and moderate acceleration gets you 33 miles. Add the AC or heat you'll get 26. It gets me all around town on electric. Trips get 44 mpg. A lot cheaper than owning a full electric car and a gas car. Cville VA.
