The 2012 Ford Fusion Hybrid, backed by more than 200 patents, leads the pack in city fuel economy and customer payback.
The Fusion Hybrid uses a powertrain system that combines the best attributes of the gasoline engine and electric battery-driven motors to deliver an optimal experience for the customer in terms of driving performance and fuel economy, which is best-in-class 41 mpg city and 36 mpg highway.
The 2.5-liter Atkinson-Cycle Hybrid four-cylinder powertrain combines with the electric motor to generate a 191 net horsepower rating, delivering responsive power.
The system transitions between gas and electric power efficiently. The 2012 Ford Fusion Hybrid can operate up to 47 mph in pure electric mode, plus the city driving range on a single tank of gas is more than 700 miles.
Ford Fusion Hybrid offers drivers a way to be connected to the hybrid driving experience thanks to SmartGauge with EcoGuide, a unique instrument cluster execution that helps coach owners to optimize performance of their hybrid. SmartGauge with EcoGuide features two high-resolution, full-color LCD screens on either side of the analog speedometer that can be configured to show different levels of information, including fuel and battery power levels, and average and instant miles per gallon. EcoGuide uses a multilayered approach to coach the driver to maximum fuel efficiency.
