I have close to 3000 miles on this car and the last 2 gas fill ups have been 22.6 mpg which is slightly higher then the EPA city rating. Being that it is still winter & all my driving so far has been city driving I am very satisfied with the gas mileage. |
| 2011 | 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
Over 40 MPG in the city. |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
Was looking for a hybrid. Based on magazine reviews, I narrowed it to this or a Prius. |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed automatic FWD |
Up to 35 mpg on the Highway. |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
The Fusion Hybrid when driven as outlined in the owner’s manual rewards you with the best in class fuel economy which is far above the advertized mileage for the car. The car has great power which is on par with the V6 version of the same car. I now have |

| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
I average a respectable 23+ miles per gallon in the city. 30+ on the highway. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 221-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed automatic FWD |
I had excellent combined mileage with this vehicle. For approximately 25K miles, my driving was 90% highway, 10% city over basically flat land. A bit over 29MPG. Last 17K changed to 45% stop and go city, 45% at 55mph and 10% interstate. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
i drive fairly agressively and expect to get the city rating or lower when I drive ANY car, but I am getting 4 mpg better in this car! |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
vey respectable, especially the highway mpg |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
4 Cyl. Engine is economical, no worse than the fuel economy on my previous Ford Escort. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 221-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed automatic FWD |
Originally thought it was great on fuel, after owning it is still respectable but not as good as I thought it would be. I end up doing more city driving than highway though. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 221-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed automatic FWD |
Good fuel economy for a sedan of that size. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Great on the 4 cylinder. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Solid, consistent results- 24 mpg city and 28 highway |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 221-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed automatic AWD |
With AWD poor. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Good car for traveling around the city in which I live |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
With only me in the car - can get 31-33 on highway. This is the 4 cyl with 5sp manual tranny. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Higher than the EPA estimate. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
with manual transmission can milk around town mileage to 25+ and highway mileage to near 35 |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 221-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed automatic FWD |
Better than my previous car (Lincoln LS V8) |

18.5mpg, vs 22mpg rated city driving. Not disatisfied. Really like the car, so don't care. |
| 2011 | 4dr Sedan 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
My primary complaint with the vehicle as a whole definitely comes down to fuel economy. I've owned several other vehicles that should generally be less economical that actually are almost the same. My primary example is one of my previous cars, a supercharged 1996 Buick Park Avenue. Overall average fuel economy with that Buick was about 20, with 70% city driving. Overall fuel economy with my V6 3.0 Fusion is...about 20 with the same driving conditions. Its to be noted that car's posted fuel economy figures for highway driving aren't really attainable. 240 HP in a midsize car isn't bad...but I sometimes wish I'd gotten the 4 cylinder. |

17mpg city driving. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The non-hybrid four is pushing a lot of weight, so its city mileage suffers. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
The city fuel economy is lower than advertised (11.4l/100km with average speed of 32kmh). |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 221-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed automatic AWD |
Poor with AWD |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
It does not lead the pack, in fact ford needs to fix the pack of power and having higher than average fuel consumption. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Fuel economy is OK, this is an error |
