What is the Ford Fusion Energi?

The Ford Fusion Energi was a plug-in hybrid version of the Fusion, a four door family sedan. It paired a petrol engine with electric drive and a rechargeable battery, allowing drivers to charge it externally and use electric power alongside petrol.

The Energi was part of the Fusion’s second generation, which ran from 2013 to 2020. Ford offered it in the United States and Canada as a plug-in hybrid choice in the Fusion line.

Generation and engine

The Fusion Energi belongs to the second Fusion generation, identified by the CD4 code and spanning 2013 to 2020. It used a 2.0 L petrol engine as part of its plug-in hybrid system.

Its fuel consumption figure reflects both petrol and electric driving. The official weighted result assumes that part of the driving is electric, so it is not a measure of petrol use alone.

How economical is the Ford Fusion Energi?

The lowest listed plug-in hybrid consumption is 5.6 L/100 km under the US EPA procedure and 5.6 L/100 km under Canada’s NRCan 5 cycle procedure. Both are weighted official figures that assume part of the driving is electric. The procedures differ, so the results are not directly interchangeable; European WLTP and NEDC tests use different procedures too.
