Overview
Cars like the 2012 Ford Fusion Hybrid might not be able to give you the direct benefits one might expect from its hybrid powertrain. However, its usefulness must not be overlooked. The Fusion Hybrid uses its 2.5L inline-4 engine and a single motor hybrid system and a 1.4 kWh battery to produce 191 horsepower. This gives the Fusion Hybrid a 0-60 of 8.7 seconds. The hybrid engine here is to support the gasoline engine to boost performance and offer slightly better fuel economy than what a single gasoline engine would be capable of. That said, the 2012 Fusion Hybrid achieves a combined fuel economy of 39 MPG. As part of the midsize sedan segment, the Fusion Hybrid competes with the Honda Accord Hybrid, the Kia Optima Hybrid, and the Toyota Camry Hybrid. It offers 3 trims, starting off at an MSRP of $28,775.
