I agree!
Recent times Ford has just stopped advertising Fusion altogether. I guess they are busy with Figo

I am also a proud FF1.6(P) owner. I bought it in April 08 and since then I have clocked 35k kms. Four long drives of Mumbai to Jaipur. Great highway presence and control. I still can't find any car in this price range comparable to fusion in terms of drive and control. No hassles, no issue related to break-down and decent maintainences. I fail to understand why this car is not doing well, may be came ahead of its time and with ford's diminishing goodwill doing no justice with poor advertising.

Hi Sandeep,
I am going for a seconed hand fusion+. 2006 model 52000 km. for 300k. Can you share what was you approx. deal when you sold you fusion.

Hi! No I ddint find maintenance cost to be high! The regular servicing cost is infact less than that of a Honda! Yes even I heard that it is liekly to be discontinued however, the engine of Ford fusion petrol is same as ford fiesta so spares should never be a problem :) Only issue you may face is body parts like headlights/ tail lights. But then how many times does one change that? People still maintain their Matiz dont they. The drive of this car is worth it!

Hi Friends,
Ford Fusion 1.6 Petrol is a good car. I am using it for the last two an half years. It is pleasure driving it. It gives you better visibility on road. Suspention is superb. I found that its servicing is little expensive but satisfactory. I would like to recommend this car as Above Average.

Hi folks,
Have owned a Fusion 1.6 (petrol) since April 2006. I bought it because I loved it on the test drive, and I still think its one of the best cars for self driving. The driving comfort is phenomenal, even at speeds of 130 kph+. Have been to Simla and Bhimtal, effortless driving. Yes, very few service centres, expensive spares, but all worth it if you love your driving. But essentially a car lovers car.
