2005 Ford Fusion : Splitting the difference between small wagon and sport/utility, the Fusion offers active urbanites a versatile, compact vehicle with fuel-efficient powertains. Inside, the Fusion features flat-folding seats to create a large, level load surface, like the Toyota Matrix. The segment-blurring crossover is expected to go on sale in Europe as a 2004 model with choice of 1.1-liter turbodiesel and 1.6-liter gasoline engines. The Brazil-manufactured Fusion is expected to be sold in North America the following year. The U.S. model will sport a more powerful engine, revised exterior, and be positioned against the Hyundai Santa Fe and Pontiac Vibe."Whoopy-f*cking-doo"
I was going to say, they better offer a more powerful engine if they expect it to sell here in North America. Aahhhh, the copycats are hard at work, I see.
