Ford has officially unveiled the 2017 Ford Fusion facelift. The car has been showcased during the 2016 North American International Auto Show and features a few exterior and interior modifications. 

The most important change is under the bonnet. Here, the Blue Oval has put a V6 EcoBoost 2.7 engine that can deliver 325 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque. The engine resources are sent to the ground via an all-wheel drive system and a modified six speed automatic transmission. 

The Ford Fusion Sport also has a continuously controlled damping suspension and some cosmetic tweaks. More than that, Ford Fusion facelift now includes a more luxurious Platinum trim. It features a bespoke front grille, 19 inch wheels and antiqued Cocoa & Venetian leathers.
