Ford may be setting up the Fusion Energi, the plug-in-hybrid version of the Fusion, for bad “sticker shock” puns when it arrives at dealers in January. The less-expensive SE Luxury trim will be priced at $39,495, while a fully loaded Fusion Energi Titanium will cost $40,995. Both prices exclude a federal tax credit, which will probably be around $4000, and any applicable state tax credits.
The Fusion Energi should offer a combined powertrain output similar to the Ford C-Max Energi, which offers 188 hp from its gasoline and electric motors. With the non-plug-in Fusion hybrid starting at $27,995 and running up to $32,995 for a Titanium model, the step into the Energi is steep. Even with an electric-only range of roughly 20 miles, most buyers won’t expect the Energi to pay for itself in fuel savings.
