The award-winning Ford SYNC communications and infotainment system now can be integrated with the available touch-screen voice-activated Navigation System. The 2011 Fusion features an all six-speed transmission lineup, including an available sixspeed manual or automatic transmission backing the I-4 engine. New this year, I-4 automatic models are available with SelectShift Automatic (transmission) manual gear control via a gear selector up/down button. Front-wheel drive and on-demand all-wheel drive are available on Fusion models with a 3.0-liter V6 engine and with the Fusion Sport 3.5-liter engine. Both V6 engines come standard with SelectShift for individual gear control. The versatility in the powertrain systems creates a wide range of options designed to fit every need.

W ith its even sportier look, larger, more powerful engine, aggressive 18-inch wheels and upgraded suspension tuning, the new 2011 Ford Fusion Sport is a dynamic addition to the lineup. The 3.5-liter V6 engine is mated to a SelectShift Automatic (transmission). Front-wheel drive is standard, all-wheel drive is available. The sport-tuned air intake system provides an assertive growl that complements the driving experience. For 2011, the Fusion Sport also features a unique lower grille for a functional look, large beveled bright-tip dual exhausts, side rocker moldings, a decklid spoiler and unique Sport badging. Eighteen-inch painted aluminum wheels are standard.
The 2011 Fusion is equipped with advanced electric power-assisted steering (EPAS) providing responsive road feel and enhanced on-center balance while offering the additional benefit of increased fuel economy. EPAS also reduces the load on the engine since a belt-driven power steering pump is no longer required. Fusions front anti-roll bar and rear suspension link geometry help ensure confident steering, handling and ride. The suspension elements have been tuned to take full advantage of EPAS.
