- 2010 Fusion offers all the great features of the available voice-activated Ford SYNC? System* -- plus two new features: 911 Assist and Vehicle Health Report.
With SYNC you can access your music collection on your MP3 player by genre, album, artist or song title and operate your Bluetooth? phone with simple voice commands.* You can even make music
selections through your flash drive by voice command.
SYNC gets a major system upgrade with the addition of 911 Assist. Within seconds after airbag deployment, SYNC uses your cell phone connection you programmed into the system to make a call to a
local 911 emergency operator. A pre-recorded message will then play when the call is answered, and you'll be able to communicate with the 911 operator. Along with 911 Assist, SYNC will offer a
Vehicle Health Report feature. SYNC gathers information from the vehicle's control modules and transmits it through the cell phone connection you programmed into the system to Ford by way of an
800-number. You can receive these health reports free of charge by e-mail or text-message alerts.
SYNC is optional in Fusion SE; standard in Fusion SEL and Sport models and also in the Fusion Hybrid.
*Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle control. Only use mobile phones and other devices, even with voice commands, when it is safe to do so. The Bluetooth word mark is a
trademark of the Bluetooth SIG, Inc.
The vehicle's electrical system (including the battery), the wireless service provider's signal and a connected mobile phone all must be available operating for 911 Assist to function properly.
These systems may become damaged in a crash. The paired mobile phone must be connected to SYNC and the 911 Assist feature enabled in order for 911 to be dialed.
- The available class-exclusive* BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) with Cross Traffic Alert is yet another new innovation available on the 2010 Ford Fusion.
Using two multiple-beam radar modules positioned in the rear quarter panels, the system's radar detects moving objects within a 65-foot range from either side of your vehicle. With BLIS (Blind
Spot Information System), the radar identifies a vehicle entering the defined blind spot zone and illuminates an indicator LED light on the corresponding side view mirror when you're signaling.
The Cross Traffic Alert feature provides an audible warning, as well as an indicator light in the corresponding sideview mirror, that a vehicle is crossing while you're backing out of a parking
spot or your driveway.
*Class is mid-size sedans.
- The V6-powered Fusion with class-exclusive* All-Wheel Drive (AWD) improves traction on any surface where wheel slip can occur, such as ice, snow, mud or gravel. It constantly monitors driving
conditions and distributes engine torque to the wheels with the most traction. So if the front wheels are experiencing poor low-speed traction, AWD will automatically transfer most of the torque
to the rear wheels or the wheels having the most traction. At highway speed, the AWD system automatically deactivates to help conserve fuel.
*Class is mid-size sedans.
- Pick one of the seven colors in the Ambient Lighting feature to express your mood. You can add colorful accents in the front and rear footwells, front center console bin, and front two
cupholders. Ambient Lighting is standard in Fusion SEL and available in the new Sport model with the Electronics Package. It's also standard in the Fusion Hybrid.
- The optional Voice-activated Navigation System provides more advanced features in the new 2010 Fusion. Navigational aids include detailed freeway exit, turn and ramp transition lane guidance;
street name announcement; and current location display. Also part of the system is a 10-gibabyte hard drive for storing photos, ripping CDs, and managing music with the Jukebox function.
And there's the greater wealth of travel information the integrated SIRIUS Travel Link service provides,* such as real-time traffic and weather conditions plus area gas stations with fuel
prices. The system comes with a single-disc CD/DVD player and Sony? sound system featuring 12 speakers including two subwoofers. Watch a DVD when the vehicle is in Park - a really nice
feature.
What's more, the Hybrid Energy Flow Display lets you track the powertrain's three main modes of operation (Hybrid Drive, Electric Drive, and Idle Charging) and overall fuel economy.
*Real-time traffic monitoring available in select markets. Some features are unavailable while driving. Service not available in Alaska or Hawaii. SIRIUS Travel Link is a registered trademarks

- Your Fusion is engineered is handle with precision and agility. But that doesn't mean you can't enjoy some serious rock 'n' rolling - which is what the exclusive new optional Sony? Sound
System provides. The system features surround sound technology and Sony DSP processing, 390 watts of power, and 12 high-quality premium speakers and two subwoofers. It comes with a 6-disc in-dash
CD changer (single disc CD player with available Navigation System) and is, of course, MP3-capable.
