2019 Ford Fusion Energi
The 2019 Ford Fusion Energi is a plug-in hybrid sedan that delivers equal parts attitude and fuel economy.
What's new for the 2019 Ford Fusion Energi?
The most exciting new change for 2019 is the Fusion Energi's larger battery pack. This baby increases your all-electric range to 26 miles, which is more than enough for most of us to get to work without ever tapping into the gas tank.
The SE Luxury and Platinum trim levels have been dropped for 2019, leaving just one trim level on option: the Titanium. But never fear. This single Fusion Energi trim is loaded with luxury, safety, and high-tech infotainment gear.
Why buy the 2019 Ford Fusion Energi?
The Fusion Energi's main attraction is, of course, its all-electric range and hybrid powertrain. After the Energi's 26-mile all-electric range runs its course, the hybrid powertrain takes over, earning 42 mpg combined.
In addition to helping you go green, however, this Ford hybrid is very well rounded. The single trim is generously heaped with features, so you'll never lack for infotainment technology or high-tech safety gear. The cabin is cushy and quiet, even when you're cruising in the face of highway winds. The cabin is also home to high-quality materials, adding to its luxury vibe. And, even when you've got a cabin full of adult-size passengers, everybody has enough head- and legroom for a comfy ride.
There's only one trim level on offer, the Titanium. But it's on the high end of the Ford spectrum, so you'll never lack for creature comforts, infotainment options, and cutting-edge safety systems. We love the cabin's leather upholstery and ambient interior lighting, features that upgrade your daily drive to luxury status.
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capabilities display your favorite apps on the cabin's 8-inch touchscreen, so there's no need for needless distraction. Keyless entry and ignition will be your new favorite convenience features. Just hop in the cabin, and fire up the engine with the flick of a switch.
This plug-in hybrid also comes standard with a long list of high-tech safety aids. Not only can they help you spot danger, but they can also jump into action, actively hitting the brakes or steering you back to safety. We're especially big fans of the pre-collision warning system, which includes both automatic braking and pedestrian detection features.
How long does it take to charge the 2019 Ford Fusion Energi?
Use a Level 2 charger and you can recharge the Fusion Energi's empty battery in about two and a half hours. Plug the Fusion Energi in when you wake up, go for a run, hit the showers, have breakfast, get dressed, and this plug-in hybrid should be ready for 26 miles of all-electric action.
What's the 2019 Ford Fusion Energi mpg?
The Fusion Energi's hybrid powertrain is EPA-rated for 42 mpg combined. When you take its all-electric range into account alongside its hybrid performance, what you get is 103 MPGe combined. Either way you want to look at it, this plug-in hybrid is a green way to get around.
