  1. The power guages do not necessarly need to be on th e right side screen . Then can be projected on the center screen or the drivers side screen in front of the steering wheel. This is where the power flow guage is located on Escape hybrids.
  2. Perhaps Ford may install these missing Power Flow and Power Guage via a future OTA updates.
  3. Unfortunately the Hyrids do not have the tachometer in Excite mode.
  4. Interesting where did you se the power flow on the china version. Thanks
  5. I would like to see a Tachometer because the vehicle is so smooth driving that you can not tell if it is Electric driving or gas. Even stopped you cannot tell, where as a tach would indicte engine operation.
  6. I have driven many Lincoln corsairs all ice models and I can say i do not find them that quite an interior. That is one reason I ordered a Nautilus Hybrid . The Nautilus Hybrid I drove is very smooth and quite interior. I think itmay be better sound insulation and maybe retuning of the Active Noise Control.
  7. Thanks for the update. It would be interesting to see though as other hybrids have the power flow. I also hope they bring the tachometer to the hybrid like the ICE model in the excite mode.
  8. Hi I have checked out the image on the fuel economy widget and I do see where the electric driving image is displayed for the Power Guage. My question is as per the owners manual they also list a Power Flow display, with the image and descrirtion of where the electric energy is going to ie from the generator to the battery or from the battery to the motor.I have not been able to locate this.It says it is located in apps. Any help on this one please.
  9. Ok I will check that out. I have not looked at that yet. I hope that helps everyone as well. Thank you great review.
  10. Just wanted to ask about the change over from engine operation to electric driving? Is there an on screen indicator to identify when it which mode the vehicle is in? The owners manual indicates a Power gauge on screen but I have yet to find this feature. Your comments please would be appreciated. Thanks
  11. I 'm sure the tooling budget has long been paid off on the Fusion. With no significant change since 2013 to date . The buyers kept dwindling because the vehicle was largely unchanged. The best car vehicle they produced and it was abandoned year after year. In the prime sales were plus 300,000 units per year. Buyers aren't stupid they want something significantly refreshed when it comes time for purchasing not the same old with different color or wheels. Buyers are not all moving away from cars Japanese sell a ton in the US and Canada. Not everyone wants a SUV that is over priced an less fuel efficient. Artificial price gouging of the public for SUV's . Think about it 2 extra pieces of glass and a few more square feet of steel yield thousands and thousands higher price yet all the same convince and optional features on both cars and SUV's.
  12. Why is the Japanese car manufactures can make and sell small and return a profit.
  13. Has anyone placed an order for a 2017 Fusion sport?
