41 MPG city Fusion Hybrid more efficient than Camry Hybrid's 33 MPG
So who still wants a Prius?
"The hybrid system for the Fusion and Milan hybrids supports operation in all-electric mode at speeds of up to 47 mph; a smaller, lighter NiMH high-volt battery has greater charge capacity and range than the previous generation battery. The hybrids have a range of more than 700 miles of city driving on a single tank of gas." http://www.greencarcongress.com/2008...ord-fusio.html "With those numbers, the Fusion Hybrid will be America's most fuel efficient mid-size car, topping its chief competitor -- the Toyota Camry Hybrid -- by 8 mpg in the city and 2 mpg on the highway." http://blogs.edmunds.com/greencaradv...ry-hybrid.html |

Glad to see Ford is working on this. I wouldn't want
a Prius if you gave it to me. "Elmo P.

The Fusion is based on a Mazda and Volvo platform. Wonder what happens when
Ford sells those brands. Otherwise it seems like quite a nice car and the hybrid an excellent value. > wrote in message ... > So who still wants a Prius? > > "The hybrid system for the Fusion and Milan hybrids supports operation > in all-electric mode at speeds of up to 47 mph; a smaller, lighter > NiMH high-volt battery has greater charge capacity and range than the > previous generation battery.

Actually the Fusion was a Ford designed chassis, first used by Mazda.

Wanna bet? Apparently you have not owed a Ford lately. The very first
Mercury Milan was sold was to a Camry owner. Seems his was far from home and tranny blew on the interstate. He had the car towed to dealer that sold Toyota and Lincoln/Mercury. He was told by the Toyota tech it was shot and they could have a new one in four or five days. Because his Camry was over the mileage it would be at his expense. The Toyota salesman tried to get him to trade his Camry and a new Camry. While he was on the lot looking at the Camry they were unloading their first Milan. He asked what is was. He took a test ride and drove home with a V6 Milan for around $6,000 less than an another V6 Camry. The salesman said it was the first time he ever sold a car of the truck "Elmo P.
