The 2017 Ford Fusion received a subtle facelift, and some boosts to crash safety over the previous model year. While Ford's engineers were busy working toward this redesign, they were also plugging away at the newest addition to the Fusion family -- the Fusion Sport.
Built to compete with German performance sedans, the Fusion Sport packs a class-topping 380 pound-feet of torque, and 325 horsepower. Unlike some brands that call for a hefty premium for all-wheel drive, the Fusion Sport offers this all-weather corner-hugging capability as a standard.
Of course, if you're looking to maximize your performance in the summer months, a summer-only tire package will also be available. Just be sure to swap them out before the snow starts falling.
The Fusion Sport follows on the success of the Explorer Sport, and the Edge Sport, both of which saw higher increases in sales compared to their base-model companions, and around 20 percent of buyers switching over from Mercedes-Benz, Audi, or BMW experiences.
