About This 2017 Ford Fusion SE Sedan

The 2017 Ford Fusion SE is one of the most popular trim levels in the Fusion lineup for good reason — it hits the sweet spot between affordability and features. This particular example carries 79,813 miles, which for a 2017 model year vehicle puts it squarely in the middle of its usable life. The 2.0T EcoBoost engine is widely regarded as a durable, well-engineered powerplant that regularly reaches well beyond 150,000 miles with routine maintenance. For buyers in Detroit and Wayne County looking for a used sedan that won't let them down, this Fusion SE checks every box.

The AWD configuration on this Fusion is a genuine differentiator — especially for drivers in Southeast Michigan who know what winter roads in the Metro Detroit area can look like between November and March. All-wheel drive isn't just a luxury here; it's a practical necessity for buyers who commute through Detroit, Dearborn, or beyond.

2017 Ford Fusion SE Performance and Engine

Under the hood sits Ford's 2.0-liter EcoBoost turbocharged four-cylinder engine, paired with a smooth 6-speed SelectShift automatic transmission. This combination produces around 245 horsepower and 275 lb-ft of torque — figures more commonly associated with sport sedans than family cars. The SelectShift transmission allows drivers to manually select gears when desired, giving you a more engaged driving experience without sacrificing comfort on the daily commute.

The AWD system distributes power intelligently between the front and rear axles, improving grip in wet, snowy, and icy conditions — all of which are realities of driving in Wayne County and across Southeast Michigan. Fuel economy is respectable for a turbocharged AWD sedan, typically landing around 22 mpg city and 30 mpg highway with the 2.0T, making it livable for both city driving and longer highway runs.

Ford Fusion SE Features and Interior

The SE trim level is where the Fusion starts to feel genuinely well-equipped. Standard features on the 2017 Fusion SE include Ford's SYNC infotainment system with a touchscreen interface, Bluetooth connectivity, and USB inputs for seamless smartphone integration. The interior of the Fusion was consistently praised during this generation for its European-inspired design — high-quality materials, a driver-focused dashboard, and comfortable seating for five.
 

Technology and Convenience

The 2017 Fusion SE also typically includes features like a rearview camera, automatic headlights, and cruise control as standard equipment. Many examples at this trim level include optional packages adding features like heated front seats, a power driver's seat, and push-button start. The trunk offers a generous 16 cubic feet of cargo space, making this a practical choice for families and commuters alike.

Ford Fusion Reliability and Ownership

The 2017 Ford Fusion has a solid reliability record, particularly when equipped with the 2.0T EcoBoost engine and maintained on schedule. Ford addressed many of the early concerns from previous Fusion generations, and the 2017 model year benefits from a mature, refined platform. Owners consistently report satisfaction with the powertrain's durability and the overall build quality of the interior.

Common ownership advice for this generation Fusion includes staying current on coolant flushes, transmission fluid changes, and spark plug replacements around the 100,000-mile mark. The 6-speed SelectShift transmission is known for smooth, reliable operation when properly maintained. Overall, a well-kept 2017 Fusion SE with under 80,000 miles represents a low-risk, high-value purchase in today's used car market.
