The 2012 Ford Fusion for buyers
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2012 Ford Fusion for sale by us right now. This page helps you judge the 2012 Ford Fusion before you buy one anywhere.
A buyer's checks
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Owners filed 2,617 complaints with NHTSA, most often about steering, air bags and electrical system; have those parts checked. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.
What the specs mean
Under the hood: the 2.5L 4-cylinder hybrid and front-wheel drive. It is a hybrid: the battery charges itself as you drive and brake, so there is nothing to plug in. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
The combined figure, 6.2 L/100 km, means roughly 19 litres for 300 km. That works out to about $9.61 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$1,750 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Room inside
As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. The EPA measures its luggage space at 453 litres, roughly a family's bags for a long weekend.
A good match for
It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
Rent it for a week first
If the Fusion is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent the Fusion first, and buy only if it fits your life. Rent the Fusion for a week and see how it fits your life.
Running costs
The EPA estimates US$1,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $9.61 in fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Narrowing it down
Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
Ask us
Want to try before you buy? Ask for your dates.
Rent it for a week before you buy
