2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid is the most patented car in automotive history

The most fuel-economical mid-sized sedan of America is also considered the most patented car in automotive history. We are talking here about the 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid. It has been determined that the patented technologies of Ford are far more advance that its rivals. This statement was released by the Patent Board which includes 17 global industries in its study.

In the area of quality and patent significance, the Patent Board says that Ford outperformed all other carmakers, placing Ford at the very top of its Top 10 Innovators in Automotive and Transportation Scorecard in the last quarter of last year. Included in the Fusion-specific patents are powertrain system, instrument cluster with SmartGauge with EcoGuide, Blind Spot Information System, and the fuel-filler system that does not require a cap. The technologies that Ford is utilizing aim at remaking its lineup with eco-friendly, modern products that customers desire. Ford focuses on high-quality patents that will provide the most innovative potential for the carmaker. The design crew of the Fusion has aimed high and they have successfully delivered what they aimed for.

This is awesome, I proud that Ford, and America car company can and has put other manufactures on notice. Ford, unlike GM, tends to stick with what works for the most part. Good going Ford.

Yes good for ford :) I was impressed when I found out the Escape hybrid has the same fuel efficiency in the city as a tdi jetta.

I have seen a few of these on the new Extreme Home Makeovers. I must say the new Fusion and Hybrid for 2010 are very impressive looking cars that are well appointed. Accord and Camry are now on notice. Not that I care because the current Camry is and has always been a fluffy floating huge wheel-gapped car with big overhangs and bad style. The Accord has just gotten uglier and no longer offers LED taillights or any kind of good styling, it just looks oversized and odd.

| the current Camry is and has always been a [...] bad style.

Sucks to be a Toyota and Lexus hater who just does not know where to stop. The current Camry is probably the most balanced, elegant and sleek looking Toyota ever made. No wonder normal people like its look and style so much:

with my VW, I'd already had the engine replaced.

@JenB - good choice! Japanese cars ('specially made in the USA) will last you forevers!

christ(ine) says: Well thanks for the input on the car! We are seriously considering it. I had a Camry before and loved it, I'm excited that they have a hybrid now.

These above are normal people who have normal perception of reality. They have lives and they actually have cars. They do not waste their precious time on the Internet posting turdy desperate hatred comments.

You can now relax and tell me now about the Lexus IS F fake exhaust and no manual gearbox.*

* Audi R8 has the same separated tailpipes and most of R8s are ordered with an automatic gearbox, the R-Tronic.

The only reason is that the technology in this car is Ford last resort. Then again who else would want to copy a Mustang.
