\"2010_ford_fusion\"<\/a> This video is one of the more interesting and in-depth I have seen in quite some while.  This contest consists of criteria that is not platform dependent.  The Motor Trend staff were to judge the vehicles on six key criteria: advancement in design, engineering excellence, performance of intended purpose, efficiency, safety, value.  The testing was done at the Hyundai Kia proving grounds<\/a> in California City, California.  It is a 4300 acre facility with 10 different road courses for a total of 72 miles.  The commentary on this was very interesting and appeared to be pretty impartial.<\/p>\n

Ford is really making strides in engineering and refinement.  Because of the success of the Focus Hybrid, GM will really have to come out strong in 2011 with the Chevy Volt.  They only have one chance to really get things perfect.  Ford has left them with no breathing room to make any mistakes in the presentation of the Volt.  Ford has really hit the pavement running with this refined car.<\/p>\n

Kudos to Motor Trend sharing this vid on YouTube.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
