2017 Ford Fusion Sport earns its badge with 380 lb-ft

http://www.autoblog.com/2016/06/09/2...ort-380-lb-ft/




Stats? 325 horsepower and 380 pound-feet of torque (on 93 octane). From a Fusion.

Yes, the Fusion is finally worthy of its Sport badging, thanks to its 2.7-liter, twin-turbocharged V6. That's five more horsepower and 50 more pound-feet than a BMW 340i. And it's a hell of a lot more than the naturally aspirated V6 from the Toyota Camry SE or turbocharged fours of the Hyundai Sonata and Kia Optima. Unlike its mainstream competition, Ford paired the Fusion's six-speed automatic transmission to a standard all-wheel-drive system, so it should be easy to put all that power down. Ford hasn't published performance figures yet, but if the Fusion Sport takes more than around five seconds to hit 60, it'd shock us.

That's gonna be awesome. Glad its AWD only. The last sport didn't have near the power, but in FWD it torque steered like crazy.
