When you hear about plug-in hybrids, you may not think of a vehicle that is particularly practical or capable, especially for rural Glasgow-area driving. You might be surprised, though. The 2017 Ford Fusion Energi:

  • Can travel 610 miles on a single tank of gas and a full battery charge, more than twice as far as most Americans expect.
  • Has a 21-mile electric range, for gas-free trips around town.
  • Has an EPA-estimated efficiency rating of 43mpg city/41mpg highway for long drives without refueling.
  • Can be charged with a 120-volt convenience cord in just about any household outlet.
  • Comes with an advanced suite of standard and available technology, including SYNC 3, rain-sensing wipers, rear-view camera, and more.

According to Ford's director of electrified powertrain engineering, Kevin Layden, the Fusion Energi is perfect for drivers who have to make both in-town and out-of-town commutes, because it "gives them both the freedom to go gas-free for shorter trips and the fuel efficiency of a gas engine for longer trips. And it's very affordable."
