A great all-rounder

The ford fusion petrol version never took off as the car did not offer much to the buget conscious indian as it was way too expensive at the time of launch and returned poor mileage. Later price revisions made this a good value for money car.

The diesel engine on this car is a tried and tested engine which is also seen on the fiesta which is highly refined. Eventhough this car is well built and quite heavy it returns an amazing fuel economy of about 18-20 on the highway. The engine is no racer though but cruises well on the highway. The lower end torque is good for city driving conditions. The high ground clearence makes driving through bad roads seem easy and it can do a bit of off roading as well. The ride is not great but completely manageable but the handling is exceptional.

This car is a great buy for those who are looking for a practical car which is a cross over between a sedan and a SUV with descent performance and great  fuel economy.

A good pseudo SUV,great fuel efficiency,amazingly refined engine.Image,cost of spares.
