Wrapping the Fusion Hybrid
I’m impressed with Ford’s foray into the mid-size sedan hybrid market. They’ve developed a car that’s highly fuel-efficient and notably refined. A further point to consider, though, includes price. My tester was stickered at $39,579, and I thought that was a little steep.
Granted, the vehicle was equipped with navigation, upgraded audio and a moonroof, which kicked up the base sticker of $34,199 considerably. With less expensive mid-size sedan hybrids coming online, Ford may have some pencil sharpening to do. And on that note, at the time of writing, Ford is offering some interesting rebates, undoubtedly lowering the price of the Fusion Hybrid.
Saving money on the purchase and on fuel is win-win.
