2011 Ford Fusion Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr Sedan 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The front seats are very comfortable, and provide very adequate support for long trips. Side support isn't the very best for hard cornering though. see full Ford Fusion review
2010	4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed automatic FWD	All passengers have commented about the generous space and overall comfort of the rear seat. see full Ford Fusion review
2010	4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed automatic FWD	Controls are easily adjusted to fit any driver. Lateral support is good without feeling pinched into the seat. Dead pedal is perfectly positioned. see full Ford Fusion review
