Those on the market for a stellar four door sedan with more horsepower than they can shake a stick at have usually had to turn to luxury automakers to get the model they want. But no longer. At this past year's Detroit Auto Show, the Blue Oval took the wraps off the 2017 Ford Fusion Sport, which boasts 325 horsepower. Now that the pricing has been announced, it's a more enticing prospect than ever.
When the power numbers for the new Fusion Sport were unveiled, eyebrows shot up across the automotive world. Why would a midsize sedan need 325 horses and an all-wheel drive platform? Now that the extra-low $34,350 MSRP has been announced, it makes sense. This is a car that was designed to provide thrills, while setting crosshairs against more expensive premium models.
Will the gamble pay off? Given Ford's history of risks, such as the SVT Raptor of 2010, we think so. In the meantime, our Ford dealership in Fredericksburg, VA is here to help you with all of your current automotive needs.
