According to Ward's Auto World, Ford's formerly erstwhile special victims vehicles team SVT may be planning to make over the Fusion and upcoming Edge crossover. Mark Fields — Ford's boy wonder and EVP — recently reclaimed SVT from the land of the doomed, saying the team's adventures had been scaled back but not abandoned as had been rumored. Fields had told Wards', that one performance Mustang and one performance truck would remain in the SVT lineup; one tier of three in Ford's approach to performance vehicles, including what Fields called "personalized performance" vehicles and its racing programs. That means the Fusion and Edge models might end up being offered with some SVT-like options rather than necessarily wearing the full SVT gown. [Thanks to Dave for the tip.]
