2012 Ford Fusion consumer reviews

Good gas mileage, good bucket seats, good console, satellite radio for oldies rock and roll, FWD, decent engine performance

This is a great car. We bought the S with a 6 speed manual so it feels a little sportier than the auto trans, but the engine is the same. It's smaller than the Honda Accord, but the handling makes it more fun to drive. It's roomy without feeling cavernous and has a surprisingly large trunk and back seat. It's comfortable for both my husband (6', 260lbs) and myself (5' 2", 130lbs) to drive. Absolutely no buyer's remorse here, just wish I could have found one in my price range with a sunroof!

I absolutely love everything about this car. We purchased back in Feb 2012 brand new, fully loaded with all the bells and whistles. I do not believe we left anything off the car. There is plenty of power with the V6. It just purrs right along and passing is fast, effortless and smooth. The interior is extremely comfortable. The sound system is phenomenom. The bluetooth and My Touch are easy to use. Love the ambient lighting and how you can change the colors. The body style is great and I get lots of compliments on my car. We bought the steel blue with the luxury leather interior. I love that everything you need is right at the drivers fingertips. There is plenty of leg room in the rear and adults can fit comfortbly in back as well. The gas mileage has been great. I love the car and Ford did a nice job. So far mechanically sound. transmission shifts without a flinch. The interior is spacious and quiet. The only thing I would change would be that it would have the memory for the driver's seat. Other than that you get a lot of car for the money. Thanks FORD for a job well done.

We are very happy with our new 2012 Fusion. Love the smooth ride & quility build. Ford was easy to work with and we love the style too.

I recently purchased a Ford Fushion on 3/5/2012. It is a very smooth ride. It is good on gas and it is a very comfortable car. The sound system is amazing. It has a lot of room and it has a "real trunk". The back windows roll all the way down which is not always the case in cars purchased today. I drive my car for everything: work, visiting, traveling, doing extra curricular activities. It is my only vehicle. I would recommend this car to anyone! Bountiful!

I got the 4 cyl more for mpg. If its not a big deal then maybe opt for the v6. It really only lags a little. I have been between 22 & 24mpg combined so it's overall doing good. It also only has @ 1100 miles on it. But so far it's comfortable, has a lot of features to go with it. The only thing that's a bit odd is the heat controls and speed controls. But for the price, worth it. I looked at the Malibu and the Camry. Got a lot more for the money. If your looking for a good 4 door car consider this one.

V6 ENGINE HAS GOOD POWER. QUICK ACCELERATION. GAS MILEAGE GREAT ON HIGHWAY BUT NOT SO GOOD AROUND TOWN. SIRRUS RADIO NICE. SYNC WORKS GOOD WITH I-POD. MP3 CD BIT A SLOW ON SONG CHANGE. TRANSMISSION WANT TO CHANGE UP GEAR TO SAVE GAS, BUT CAN USE MANUAL TO KEEP IN LOWER GEAR. THIS WORKS WELL FOR GETTING ON HIGHWAY. SOUND SYSTEM IS LOUD ENOUGH EVEN ON HALF WAY. BASS SOUND WILL MAKE THE CAR THUMP IF TURNED UP HIGH IF YOU LIKE THAT.

I bought a 2012 Fusion last summer, it was a great car from the start. I got a SEL with front wheel drive. I love the exterior style of the car, the sound system is excellent and it is a very nice and fun car to drive. Performance in the snow is not great with the FWD version. Last week I went back to the dealer and upgraded to a AWD Fusion, got another SEL, same color. The AWD is much better on snow and ice and I love the way it drives. I would recommend the Fusion to anyone who is looking for a reliable and fun car to drive. If you live somewhere where it snows in the winter you should get the AWD, it will come in handy. The only thing I wish was different about the car is the climate control functions on the center console, the buttons are small, close together and set kind of low. Takes too much concentration off the road to adjust the climate in the car.

I'm very happy with my new Ford Fusion! I didn't think I was ready to buy a new vehicle yet, but I wanted to start test driving to get an idea of what to buy when the time came. Although there were a handful of vehicles on my short list, the Fusion was the first and only car I test drove. I've owned it for almost two months now, and I'm confident it will be a great car. Gas mileage has exceeded expectations, it handles well, and it's very comfortable.

The SEL that my wife and I have has surpassed all expectations. The 2.5- 4 cylinder performs well. Fuel economy ranges from 26 around town to 36 on highway. The best part of this car is that it is flat out fun to drive and has an outstanding balance of handling, performance and utility at an attractive price. Fit, finish and appointments are flawless.
