For me it's all 5 stars

The car is comfortable and the interior is laid out nicely. The navigation and entertainment in 2017 is a major improvement over prior versions and includes Apple Carplay and Android Auto. However, with the much improved navigation and entertainment system, I have not needed to use Android Auto. It even has Amazon Alexa as an available app. I like the exterior styling, it has been reliable, and enjoy drive the car very much. For me it is all 5 stars.

Comfort and Style

I purchased this car after looking for a while at other similar cars like the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord. I ended up deciding on the Fusion because of the style and price. For the price, I don?t think you can find a better equipped car. Neither the Camry nor the Accord could come close to what I paid for this car with the included options it had. I wasn?t sure about the rotary shift dial when I first looked at the car but now that I?ve had it for a while, I find myself liking it more and more. I do still find myself reaching for the shifter sometime but that?s because of old habits. With the dial, there is less in the way and that has been nice. The storage in the car is also ample and I have found the car to be overall quite comfortable, even on rather long trips. It has also done very well on fuel economy. I am getting right around an average of 29-30 mpg with the 2.5L engine. Better than advertised but then, I don?t really have a heavy foot but I do travel around 70-75 mph. It isn?t the fastest car off the line but I wasn?t looking for a sports car. I guess you could always opt for the eco boost version if you wanted a little more power. The Sync 3 system with the 8? display has been awesome so far. I?ve downloaded a lot of the apps for it and have been very impressed at how well everything syncs together with ease. All-in-all, I couldn?t be happier. I am hoping the car lasts a long time for me and I feel so far that it will. The last 2 Ford vehicles I had have both went past 250,000 miles with no really issues so I hope to see something similar with this car.

So far - It's been great!!

Very surprised to discover what a nice ride this is. Great reviews from Consumer Reports have been confirmed by my experience. So far, the only thing I wish it had was better gas mileage.

Fusion SE Happy

I love the design the Ford Fusion. The front grill makes the car look elegant. I love the interior features. Very satisfied with the leather seats. The simple dashboard design is perfect for me. I, especially, love the Sync 3 features. Simple to use and the large screen makes it very easily accessible and readable. A+ for the GPS system. I no longer have to rely on my phone app for directions. I?m currently having the windows tinted and the protective film application for the interior and exterior by the dealer. LOVE my Fusion SE Ecoboost ( already saving money on gas).... Thanks.

Sporty Mid-Size Sedan

We have owned this car for 5 months now and are more than satisfied with our purchase. The car handles and accelerates like a sports car but has enough room to haul the family around. The Sync 3 infotainment system works great and lets you control most functions hands free so you can concentrate on the road. A great purchase and would highly recommend to anyone looking for an affordable, sporty mid-size sedan.
