New, 100 MPG Ford Fusion

[Ladogaboy]

So, apparently, Ford is releasing a 100 mpg plug-in hybrid version of the Fusion. From the pictures, it looks like the aero could use some work:

Besides the rear corners being rounded i think the aero looks good.

(That big grill probably comes pre-blocked from factory)

I was thinking of the rims too, but you're probably right about the grill. I just have a hard time believing their claimed 13 mpg more than the plug-in Prius.

I still cant believe they are calling that POS the new Dart.

Sorry got to looking at other photos back to normal topic.

Is it me or it looks like a Mitsubishi Lancer with a front grille ala Aston Martin ?

I think its awesome to see more PHEVs come out on the market. Hopefully the price will be not a crazy amount more than the Hybrid. I know I'd consider one over a PHEV Prius, which is approx $32k.

I can't wait to replace my daily driver with a PHEV car. I think I could do 80+ % of my driving w/o fuel

It does look a bit reminicent of the Aston Martin.....but since when is that a bad thing?
