2017 Ford Fusion Performance and Engine

Under the hood sits Ford's 2.0-liter EcoBoost turbocharged 4-cylinder engine — one of the better engines Ford has ever put in a midsize sedan. It produces around 245 horsepower and 275 lb-ft of torque, giving you a noticeably spirited driving experience that most naturally aspirated four-cylinders simply can't match. Paired with a smooth 6-speed SelectShift automatic transmission, you get responsive, confident power whether you're merging onto I-75 or cruising on the Lodge Freeway.

The front-wheel drive layout keeps things predictable and efficient in everyday driving. Michigan winters can be tough, and while FWD handles light snow well, pairing this vehicle with a solid set of winter tires will give you added peace of mind during the colder months. Fuel economy on the EcoBoost 2.0T typically lands around 22 MPG city and 32 MPG highway — excellent numbers for a car with this much get-up-and-go.
 

Ford Fusion SE Features and Interior

The SE trim is where the Fusion starts getting genuinely comfortable and well-equipped. Buyers stepping into this cabin will find a thoughtfully designed interior that holds up remarkably well for a 2017 model. Ford's SYNC infotainment system is standard, offering Bluetooth connectivity, hands-free calling, and audio streaming so you can keep your focus on the road.

The SE also typically includes features like a rearview camera, dual-zone automatic climate control availability, cruise control, power windows, power locks, and keyless entry — the everyday conveniences that make a real difference in how much you enjoy your daily drive. The cabin offers generous rear-seat legroom for a midsize sedan, making it a practical choice for families and rideshare drivers alike across the Metro Detroit area.

Routine maintenance on this car is affordable and straightforward. Oil changes, brake service, and tire rotations are the bread and butter of keeping a Fusion running well. If you're buying near 111K miles, it's worth asking about the coolant system and spark plugs — both are common service items at this mileage range. Any independent mechanic or Ford dealer in the Detroit area can service this vehicle quickly and affordably. Overall, the 2017 Fusion SE EcoBoost is widely considered one of the better used midsize sedan values on the market today.
