Ford Fusion fails, where CRV scores

Did Ford need Fusion at all? I think no. Fusion has been moving slowly in sales clearly giving a signal to its manufacturers. Though it may have been a fast mover in Europe, but the car has not made any significant impact on the crossover SUV in Indian car market. Look at the recently launched Honda CRV. It has sold several numbers across several cities. The demand for the SUV is just dropping in like leaves from a tree in autumn.

Fusion only has an impressive interior and its off-road tyres, but nothing more. Its performance of 68 bhp seems too little. Its heavy body mass dose not give the push you want from a Ford car. The unimaginative designing is also of no help. The petrol and diesel variants are good on road performances but slow while moving of the shelf.

Ford would have done well if it had stuck on to sedans Fiesta and Ikon and the really impressive SUV Endeavor. Fusion, just not fit into the portfolio.

  1. Honda CR-v is giving a tough competition to Fusion,Instead of drooling over the low sales, Ford should think of other options to boom up their sales.Every car maker will have up/down in their sales all they have too do is think of new techniques to fight their rivals.

  2. We had nearly forgotten about the Dodge Challenger SRT10. It’s not that we don’t love the idea of forcing the 8.4-liter V10 from the mighty Dodge Viper into the nose of Chrysler’s muscle car, it’s just that cars built for SEMA typically have a shelf life shorter than an unpeeled banana. So it came as some surprise when our keen-eyed spy shooters happened to spot the roided-out 600-horsepower Challenger cruising around public streets.
