The 2017 Ford Fusion is newly redesigned and safer than ever before, joining the Ford F-150 as an IIHS Top Safety Pick.
To earn a Top Safety Pick under the IIHS's new, more stringent standards, the Fusion had to earn the highest score in all five of the IIHS's crashworthiness tests. Up until the 2016 model, the Fusion was already earning the highest marks in four out of five categories, but lagged behind slightly in the small-overlap front test, earning the second-highest mark.
This year, the 2017 Fusion received more than just a facelift, but also received bolstered protection against small-overlap collisions, and an upgraded Pre-Collision System, capable of preventing a crash at up to 25mph.
"The 2017 Ford Fusion is our most advanced car yet and we're proud to see it recognized by NHTSA and the IIHS for its safety performance too," said Bill Strickland, chief program engineer, Ford Motor Company. "Great new features include a pedestrian detection system and hands-free parallel and perpendicular parking capability, as well as existing optional lane-keeping assist and Blind Spot Information System with cross-traffic alert."
At Hamilton Big Country Ford, we pride ourselves on the safety and high-tech features of our new vehicles. Visit us in Clovis today, and take a look at what we have to offer.
