The Ford Fusion has been receiving high ratings from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety for years. It has long been considered to be a very safe sedan model, trusted by the most cautious of drivers.
This year, the 2017 Fusion is even safer.
How?
For the past several years, the Fusion has earned the rating "acceptable" in the small-overlap front category by the IIHS. This year, modifications to the front end bumped up the Fusion's rating to the highest level, "good."
The new Fusion model is also equipped with an advanced available Pre-Collision System, which the IIHS found could prevent a crash automatically at 12mph and at 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."
