Car Review: 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid

 

At a quick glance, this looks like an Aston Martin. But it isn't a British sports car, it's actually a hybrid. Looks like Ford has run out of ideas and is copying other car companies. Don't be fooled though, this may have Aston Martin looks, but that's all it has.

 

Inside, it looks like a regular hatchback. You get plenty of space in the back and in the trunk to store things. You even get tons of legroom. When you first start it up, you will have to look at the dashboard to make sure it's on. This car will make absolutely no noise, even when you rev it up.

 

The one surprising thing is the way this car drives. It drives like any other car. It does go from 0-60 mph in 9 seconds and then on to a top speed of 105 mph. That definitely isn't fast, but this car does feel faster than it actually is. So if you do pickup an environmental girl, you can give her a bit of a thrill with this car. When you hit the brakes, the energy is used to recharge the batteries.

 

 

 

Since this is a hybrid, it does get 47 mpg on the highway. Be warned though, if you drive this car hard and fast, you will only average around 35 mpg. So it's all about how you intend to drive this car.

 

 

 

All in all, the Fusion doesn't win me over. It drives well if you're in the city picking up environmental girls, but if you want something that's fun and exciting, you can definitely do way better.
