THE CHOICE IS YOURS
As for his other models, Ford offers customers a convenient scheme of several fixed sets that can be supplemented with options.
In the initial version of Kor (Core) a modest interior, a minimum of equipment for a comfortable existence, but security paid serious attention in European. The brakes with an anti -lock system, steering with an amplifier, the driver and front passenger front and side pillows, protects the standard immobilizer from theft. For an additional fee, this set will be replenished with pillows that protect the heads, and a headrest for a passenger sitting from behind in the middle. But such a complete set is unlikely to be liked by those who are used to relying on assistants, since mirrors and windows with electric drives are not even provided as options. It will be possible to electrify (of course, for a surcharge), only the locks of doors and trunk will be possible, and they can be controlled from the keyboard key. By the way, there is only one in the kit, the same is ordinary. The main key, of course, will be restored if you lose, but it will take a lot of time. It is better to play it safe and immediately when buying a car to spend money on a duplicate: 800 rubles are not such a high fee for peace of mind.

Then get a couple more navigator light bulbs and an armrest at the driver's seat, a lever of gearbox, trimmed with skin and aluminum. Fouzhn in the configuration of eleganes is more solid and outside: doors' handles are painted in the color of the body, a radiator grille in a chrome edging. But the cast discs and the option in this version. By the way, the assortment of additives is almost the same as the trend. They offer, for example, to improve the air conditioning to the climate control, supplement the audio system with the CD changer with 6 disks or install parking sensors (sensors only on the rear bumper). One of the obvious advantages of Eleans is the ability to choose a car with any engine and box, including a 1.6-liter engine and a hydromechanical automatic machine.

Consider the options
Hatchback
The company believes Fuzn Hatchback, although it does not cut the rumor when a compact lure or station wagon contacts it. It is really compact (length 4013 mm), but rather high (1543 mm), and therefore spacious. At all, there are more than enough, in the back seat together is free, three tolerant. But the trunk for the hatchback of this class is outstanding (337 liters), moreover, it is almost not constrained by ledges that distort the perfect shape. Another compliment for small loading height is only 540 mm. The rear seat folds in parts (40:60), increasing the cargo compartment to 1175 liters. True, the floor does not work even, but the back of the front chair lies horizontally (except for the configuration of Kor) Welcome, a two -meter long meter! (ZR, 2006, No. 6)

Is it worth buying a fusion if I drive mainly around the city?
The city is his native element. High landing and large glazing area provide good overview. True, during restructuring, occasionally, you still have to twist your head, small mirrors do not inspire complete confidence. Light steering and a modest turning radius (4.7 m) facilitate maneuvers on tight streets, and modest dimensions allow you to quickly find a parking place. In order not to take traffic jams to heart, robotic and hydromechanical boxes are assigned to both gasoline units (volume of 1.4 and 1.6 liters). Although the mechanic does not burden the clutch very gently, the transfers switch clearly.
Is Fuzn comfortable on the highway?
The car stands well at a straight line, even at high speeds, without demanding from the driver to constantly adjust the course. By the way, the steering is not acute, but understandable in quick turns you do not have to twist the helm once again, and the car holds confidently on the arc. True, the suspension is harsh, but does not cause serious discomfort on the far way. Noise insulation: the voices of the engine and tires easily penetrate the salon. You are going to often leave the metropolis or make long trips better buy a 1.6-liter version. A more powerful and burdened engine will allow you to more confidently perform overtaking and less often switch the gears.
Is Fuzhn suitable for family trips to the country?
Of course, a large family in it will be cramped, and for two or three just right, especially since easily transformable rear and front seats allow to rationally distribute the place for both people and for the cargo. As a bonus, numerous niches and clothing boxes for small things. By the way, Fuzhn is not afraid of a typical Russian country, which often end with the roads to the phases. An enviable road clearance (175 mm), short overhangs and high thresholds instill confidence even in front of rather large fossa and bumps.
