First Drive: 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid - Automobile Magazine
It’s a mileage champ, first and foremost.

Ford understands that in the hybrid arena, it’s all about the MPGs. Thus, the company is justifiably proud that the new Fusion Hybrid brought home EPA ratings of 47 mpg city and 47 mpg highway, numbers that not only well surpass the 41/36 mpg ratings of the previous model but, more importantly, solidly beat the target Toyota Camry Hybrid’s 43/39 mpg—not to mention the also-ran Hyundai Sonata Hybrid’s 35/40 mpg. If the Fusion Hybrid’s figures don’t quite match those of the Prius (51/48 mpg), they’re still good enough to make the Fusion the highest-mileage midsize sedan, a boast you’re sure to hear Ford shouting from the rooftops.
