This car wouldn't sale well in the U.S. The 2nd and 3rd row definitely too small for American size. There is no luggage space on the back if 7 passenger sit on the car. Also, the driver seat feel too stiff for the long road. Nice design, nice quality inside, but i think American will prefer the norm 7 passengers car.

Ford hybrid carry a heft premium. But certainly they are worth it.

Case in point. Fusion Hybrid: $28,600, 41/36 MPG. Base Fusion: $19,850, 20/30.

Good point. I had forgotten that. The rest of the world usually doesn't overstuff themselves with Whoppers and Big Macs like so many Americans do.
