2012 Ford Fusion Hybrid
Ford Fusion Hybrid Features
Hybrid Performance
An electric motor powered by an innovative nickel-metal-hydride
(NiMH) battery. And the 2.5L Atkinson-cycle I-4 gas engine. The
combined energy of these two sources supplies the power for the
Ford Fusion Hybrid. A full hybrid, Fusion can start off from a complete
stop and travel at light to normal acceleration up to 47 miles per
hour on electric power alone, with no fuel used. The I-4 gas engine
kicks in extra power when needed, such as in passing or merging
situations, and provides the main source of power above 47 mph.
Both the gas engine and the electric motor combine to deliver a
maximum 191 net horsepower.
Flex Fuel Capability

The responsive, available 3.0L Duratec V6 is flex
fuel-capable.
Run on unleaded gasoline, E85 (up to 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline),
or any mix of the two. Fuel injection and spark timing are adjusted
automatically according to the blend detected by electronic sensors.
Your flex-fuel engine lets you fill up wherever you are, even if
E85 isn't readily available.
SmartGauge™ Cluster with EcoGuide
The exclusive dual LCD SmartGauge™ with EcoGuide is an innovative
gauge cluster that provides real-time information to help you get
the most efficiency from your Ford Fusion Hybrid. SmartGauge™ with EcoGuide
uses dual liquid crystal display (LCD) screens on either side of
the center-mounted speedometer. A tutorial built into the display
lets you choose one of four data screens for the level of information
you want — Inform, Enlighten, Engage or Empower — and explains your
options within each. Steering wheel-mounted controls make it all
easy. All levels can indicate instant fuel economy; fuel economy
history; odometer; engine coolant temperature; plus trip data including
fuel economy, time-elapsed fuel economy and miles to empty. Watch
the display grow leaves when you drive efficiently. Or watch them
fade when you don't. More leaves = more mpg. This green motivator
works during any of the four display modes.
Regenerative Braking System

When you apply the brakes in a conventional car, kinetic energy
is lost to heat due to friction. During braking in the Fusion Hybrid,
however, the regenerative braking system recovers over 90 percent
of this energy that is normally lost and sends it back to the battery
pack to be stored for later use. Not only is regenerative braking
efficient, but it also helps minimize wear on the brake pads, lowering
the cost of maintenance.
