With all the sedans out there, deciding can be difficult, but the team at Advantage Ford LINCOLN has you covered. This year, the 2018 Ford Fusion is one of the most outstanding vehicles in the market. In its class, it has everything a driver needs to be thrilled.
We think the 2018 Ford Fusion is the right choice for you. We have compared it to its competition, the 2018 Chevrolet Malibu, so you can get an understanding as to why. Both cars are equally balanced but there are a few differences when it comes to fuel economy, details, and overall driving experience.
Ford Fusion Performance
The 2018 Ford Fusion has five trim levels available and starts with the base model being equipped with a 2.5L 4-cylinder engine. A 2.7L EcoBoost V6 engine is available, which gets 325 horsepower and is one of the most efficient choices in its class! The midsize sedan doesn't just come with the basic front-wheel drive but it tolerates rough road conditions with its all-wheel drive capability. You'll find the acceleration you need for all driving types.
Chevrolet Malibu Performance
The Chevy Malibu is a decent choice. You can find the Malibu in two trim levels, the best trim level is equipped with a 2.0L four-cylinder engine getting up to 250 horsepower, less than the Fusion.
Ford Fusion Details
The 2018 Ford Fusion has sophisticated features, making every driving experience an even better one. Enjoy Bluetooth audio streaming, adaptive cruise control, rearview camera, and more. With 16 cubic feet of cargo space, the Fusion offers plenty of space for you stuff and your passengers.
Chevrolet Malibu Details
Cruise control is available on all trim levels, but to get features like the Fusion, we recommend upgrading to a higher model. Find yourself sitting in a comfortable interior with classic cloth upholstery accommodating up to five passengers. The Malibu has a little less trunk space than the Fusion at 15.8 cubic feet.
Ford Fusion Driving Experience
The steering of the Fusion is soft and consistent, resulting in an easy handling experience. Turns are quiet despite road conditions thanks to the additional all-wheel drive boost. The Sport trim will give you speed while experiencing the same safety controls.
Chevrolet Malibu Driving Experience
It's a fun commuter car and has the adequate amount of power to arrive at your destination safely. However, the overall experience might be a little sluggish, so if power is important, choose the most powerful engine available.
The perfect car doesn't exist but the 2018 Ford Fusion can be a perfect choice for anyone interested in good gas mileage, power, or space. The Fusion has something available to best fit your needs.
