In the big city of Indianapolis, it pays to drive a "city car." You know, a highly efficient, usually electric vehicle designed for optimal performance in dense stop-and-go traffic. Yet in the rural state of Indiana, it also pays to have a vehicle that performs well on long open stretches of highway, that won't balk if the next gas station isn't for 100 miles.

What is a driver to do when their life takes them into and out of the city limits?

"Fusion Energi gives them both the freedom to go gas-free for shorter trips and the fuel efficiency of a gas engine for longer trips," said Ford director of electrified powertrain engineering, Kevin Layden. "And it's very affordable."

The 2017 Ford Fusion Energi has an EPA-estimated electric range of 21 miles on a single charge (and charging can be done conveniently at home with a 120-volt outlet). Its combined driving range, when its gasoline engine engages, is 610 miles -- more than double what most respondents of a recent survey would have guessed.

Yes, with one tank of gas, you could leave Capitol City Ford in Indianapolis, and make it to Atlanta, GA with up to 40 miles of range leftover.
