After a decade during which Ford’s ungainly, unimpressive, and unloved Taurus essentially decimated the automaker’s dominance in the midsize family sedan segment, the company debuts the crisply styled, sharply tailored, and undeniably handsome new car in the 2006 Ford Fusion.
When Ford redesigned the popular Taurus for the 1996 model year, the company shot itself in both feet with a double-oval-barreled shotgun, and, in the process, handed the midsize family sedan segment to Honda, Nissan, and Toyota wrapped in a pretty red bow and served on a glittering silver platter.
Why it took the company 10 years to rectify this mistake is anyone’s guess, but the all-new 2006 Ford Fusion has the design, the performance, and the equipment to properly compete. The question is this: Is the Fusion too late to rebuild Ford’s midsize car market share?

(53 reviews)Car is like new...at a great price love the backup camera for safety purposes for my son.
Great gas mileage, great performance, great quality, reliablility, really fun to drive. Drives like a car you'd pay 50,000 for and is fast. The interior is nice and comfortable and has an awesome ride. Also, I love the V6's power.
This is the best car I have ever owned, if it came with third row seats I would keep it forever. Its reliable and offers amazing performance and good fuel economy. I would love to have a brand new model.
I really like this car the 3.0 V6 produces some good power and really surprises you. Kinda wish they would have made a manuel version for the v6 but oh well. Interior is a little on the cheap side for me, I dont like woodgrain trim other than that really cant complain about it.
Nimble handling, a nice responsive driver, decent acceleration from the V6. Attractive interior (though I hear that the 2010 version is better), tailored, well-proportioned appearance. Gas mileage is ~24-25 in the summer, but bottoms out ~21-22 in the Michigan winters. My mileage is almost exclusively city, though, so my duty cycle is worst case. When it gets warmed up on a long highway trip, I can get 27-28 mpg. This car is fun for those who need a little fun with their responsible daily driver, perhaps not for those who haven't grown up yet.
