Shock! Ford beats the Japanese at there own game

"The first thing you need to know about the 2010 Ford Fusion hybrid is that it’s the best mid-size hybrid sedan on the market. Yes, that’s right: it wipes the floor with the Toyota Camry hybrid." -Car and Driver

Today, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rated the new 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid at 41 MPG in the city and 36 MPG on the highway. That's 8 MPG better in the city than the Camry and 2 MPG better on the highway, and that makes the new Fusion the most fuel efficient midsized sedan on the market. In addition the standard gas powered 4 cylinder Fusion is also the most fuel efficient midsized sedan you can buy without a battery. That's right, a Ford. What is interesting is that over the past year Ford has carried out a kind of assault on the auto industry. Ford now has the fuel economy title in 5 major categories. Lets begin with the SUV category, Ford's Escape hybrid holds the crown for most efficient SUV on the planet, along with its gas powered version tying with Honda CR-V 4 cylinder for most efficient. Along with the Flex, Focus and Ranger tying or besting the best in there respective class' this gives Ford one powerful line up. So today's announcement comes as no surprise. It sure looks like Ford is turning the ship in the right direction.
