History/Overview
The Ford Fusion Energi is the most advanced version of Ford's mid-size sedan. Building on the gas-electric Fusion Hybrid, the Energi adds plug-in charging to give the car about 40 km of all-electric driving range. The Fusion Energi will probably disappear after 2020, along with the rest of the Fusion lineup.
