2010 Ford Fusion, Mercury Milan, Lincoln MKZ: Design, Dissected
In case you may have missed it back in 2006, Ford released a trio of entries into the uber-boring mid-size sedan category.

Fast forward to this past week at the LA Auto Show, where Ford dropped cloth on three redesigns for the 2010 Ford Fusion, 2010 Mercury Milan and the 2010 Lincoln MKZ.

If the improvements Ford is touting stand up to scrutiny, the Fusion stands to make some serious waves in the C/D sedan segment. We approve pretty solidly of the styling changes, the six speed manual and auto on the regular Fusion and the well thought out hybrid system on the twin powered model. More »
