Ford obviously thinks it was on to something good when it decided to offer its Lincoln MKZ sedan with a no-cost hybrid option, as the Blue Oval will now be taking a similar tack with its new Fusion Titanium. For $32,995, the range-topping 2013 Ford Fusion Titanium can be equipped with either the sporty 2.0-liter EcoBoost and all-wheel drive or hybrid power and front-wheel drive.
At launch, the 2013 Fusion Hybrid will only be available in mid-grade SE trim, but starting early next year, Ford will add a Titanium model that includes sportier exterior styling and a more premium cabin. This trim level will come standard with tech features like a 12-speaker Sony audio system, MyFord Touch, parking sensors and luxury items like power front seats, leather seats and 18-inch polished alloys. It isn't clear if the Fusion Hybrid Titanium's starting price includes the $795 destination charge, but when optioning up a Fusion Hybrid SE with similar equipment, it's right in the same neighborhood at $33,370. For those keeping track, the fully loaded Fusion Hybrid Titanium is just a step under the $35,925 2013 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid, with which it shares its chassis. http://www.autoblog.com/2012/10/02/f...%28Autoblog%29 My comment : thats $17k cheaper than what we pay !!! If the Mondeo Titanium was $32k here, they would just drive out the door !!!!

If this arrived here I might be interested in an upgrade....... And...aren't Mercedes used as Taxis in Germany ? The only thing relevant is the cost of Car-X to my driveway in OZ. |
