A More Muscular Ford Fusion and the Ford Shocks

Wednesday, October 24th, 2007

In order to further improve the Ford Fusion, it now features a Sport Appearance Package that makes it stand out from other vehicles. This not only goes for the chassis but also for the interior. The said package is available for both SE and SEL Ford Fusion models. The package is especially developed by Ford in order to allow Fusion owners to have their vehicles customized. It allows them to easily add on custom details and makes them have more options in making their vehicles even more beautiful.

When it comes on the chassis, the Sport Appearance Package leans out the Fusion with a set of 18 inches of machined aluminum wheels. It also features body-colored fog lamp surrounds and a rear lip spoiler. As for the Fusion’s signature three-bar over two-bar grille, it is enhanced by adding more style to it via the smoky black chrome look. As for the interior, the package includes charcoal black interior trim that has contrasting red stitches that can also be found on the leather-wrapped steering wheel and the center console. Apart from these, a satiny-feeling aluminum face envelops the radio as well as its controls. What’s good about the Sport Appearance Package is that it gives more options to those who have a Fusion. They can choose to have a red-splashed cloth seat inserts or red leather inlays. According to Jonathan Richards, the Marketing Manager of Ford Fusion, “[w]e did this to give our Fusion customers the chance to really dress up the exterior and interior of their cars…Fusion customers are into appearance, and they want a sporty-looking package to go with Fusion’s already great handling. This Sport Appearance Package helps deliver that both inside and out.”

As the Sport Appearance Package of the Fusion makes it more muscular, the Fusion is backed up with a finely tuned suspension that has big rear stabilizer bars, stiffer spring, dampened struts and Ford shocks that makes the Fusion able to handle its new mass. This considerably makes the Ford Fusion able to handle its new weight. If you are a Ford owner and find that there is something wrong with your shocks, one can avail of one at the Bilstein shocks website.
