The second generation was launched under the Ford and Lincoln brands for model year 2013, went on sale in the U.S. in October 2012.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rated the 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid at {{convert|39|mpgus|abbr=on}} combined city/highway. The second generation hybrid improved the fuel economy rating to {{convert|42|mpgus|abbr=on}} for combined city/highway driving. The EPA rated the Energi's combined city/highway fuel economy in all-electric mode at 88 miles per gallon gasoline equivalent (MPG-e) (2.7 L gasoline equivalent/100 km; 106 mpg-imp). In hybrid operation (charge-sustaining mode), the Energi has a combined fuel economy of {{convert|38|mpgUS|abbr=on}}.
The Fusion Hybrid won the 2010 North American Car of the Year Award, and the entire 2013 Ford Fusion line-up, including the Fusion hybrid and plug-in variants, won the 2013 Green Car of the Year. {{As of|2016|12}}, over 285,000 units of the Fusion hybrid family were sold in the United States since 2009, including the plug-in hybrid variant. {{As of|2016|12}}, sales of the Fusion Energi totaled 43,327 units delivered in its main market, the U.S.

=History and development=
The hybrid electric version of the Fusion was announced at the 2005 North American International Auto Show, along with the public introduction of the original 2006 Fusion. At that time Ford announced that the hybrid version was scheduled to be introduced in early 2009 for the 2010 model year, with a suggested retail price of US$27,270.{{cite news|url=http://info.detnews.com/autosinsider/sneakpeek/index.cfm?id=26578 |title=Ford Fusion hybrid to hit auto show circuit soon |publisher=DetroitNews.com |date=August 15, 2007 |access-date=November 18, 2007 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20071011173737/http://info.detnews.com/autosinsider/sneakpeek/index.cfm?id=26578 |archive-date=October 11, 2007 |url-status=dead |df=mdy }}{{cite news|url=http://www.caranddriver.com/carnews/13741/spied-2009-ford-fusion.html?al=99|title=Spied: 2009 Ford Fusion – Car News|publisher=Car and Driver|date=August 2007|access-date=November 18, 2007|last=Gluckman|first=David}} The new Fusion Hybrid and Fusion Sport officially debuted at the Greater Los Angeles Auto Show in November 2008.{{cite web |url=http://www.worldcarfans.com/9081110.034/2010-ford-fusion-hybrid-to-pace-nascar-sprint-cup |title=2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid to pace NASCAR Sprint Cup |work=WorldCarFans.com |date=November 11, 2008 |publisher=Black Falcon Media Group}}
The Fusion Hybrid was manufactured at Ford's Hermosillo Stamping & Assembly plant, located in Sonora, Mexico. Ford set a modest sales target of about 25,000 vehicles a year for the Fusion Hybrid and the similar Mercury Milan.{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/31/business/31ford.html?scp=2&sq=Prius%20Fusion%20Hybrid&st=cse|title=Ford Hybrid Emphasizes High Mileage |work=New York Times |first=Bill|last=Vlasic|date=December 30, 2008|access-date=June 6, 2009}}

Ford claims that nearly 94 percent energy recovery is achieved by first delivering full regenerative braking followed by friction brakes during city driving. Under ideal conditions, Ford claims the Fusion Hybrid can cruise {{convert|2|mi}} at up to {{convert|47|mph}} on battery power alone.{{cite news|url=http://www.hybridcars.com/vehicle/ford-fusion-hybrid.html|title=Ford Fusion Hybrid|publisher=Hybrid Cars|access-date=June 6, 2009}}
Once perceived as a laggard in hybrid technology, Ford now claims nearly 500 hybrid patents that allow the Fusion Hybrid to achieve 41 MPG on the highway. According to Hybridcars.com, Ford has pointed to its talented inventors, making "special mention of Ming Kuang who has helped Ford since 2000 to expand its portfolio of hybrid patents from just 10 patents when he began to 461 today." Quoted in Autotrader.com, the veteran engineer says "it's about helping make the world my children live in-and the world my children's children will live in-a better place."{{proveit|date=August 2024}}

"If our early numbers hold up, the Fusion Hybrid would be a rare instance of the EPA relapsing into the world of mileage make-believe." However, they noted that when driven very conservatively, the EPA numbers could be achieved. "In typical driving, you might as well throw the Fusion's EPA numbers out the window. But if you decide to really work at it, they're possible."{{cite web|url=http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/alternative/112_0901_2010_ford_fusion_hybrid_2009_toyota_camry_hybrid/fuel_economy.html|title=Comparison: 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid vs 2009 Toyota Camry Hybrid|publisher=Motor Trend|first=Kim|last=Reynolds|date=January 2009|access-date=June 26, 2010}} Car and Driver also tested a Fusion Hybrid and achieved no more than {{convert|34|mpgus|abbr=on}} over {{convert|300|mi}} of driving, which was greater than the Camry Hybrid ({{convert|31|mpgus}}) or Nissan Altima Hybrid ({{convert|32|mpgus}}) though not by the margin indicated by the EPA ratings.{{cite web|url=http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/comparisons/09q1/2010_ford_fusion_hybrid_vs._camry_hybrid_altima_hybrid_and_malibu_hybrid-comparison_tests|title=2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid vs. Camry Hybrid, Altima Hybrid, and Malibu Hybrid – Comparison Tests|publisher=Car and Driver|date=February 2009|access-date=June 26, 2010|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100729182946/http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/comparisons/09q1/2010_ford_fusion_hybrid_vs._camry_hybrid_altima_hybrid_and_malibu_hybrid-comparison_tests|archive-date=July 29, 2010|df=mdy-all}}

These screens can be configured to show different levels of driver information, including fuel and battery power levels, and average and instant fuel economy. When set in tutorial mode, the instrument panel in the right side "grows" leaves and vines on-screen to reward fuel-efficient driving. The more leaves and vines that appear, the more efficient the driving behavior is and the more fuel is being saved. Long-term fuel efficiency can also be displayed as a traditional chart. The left side display shows when the car is in pure-electric mode, and shows the state of battery charge.
The 2011 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid, launched in September 2010, offered an improvement of Ford's SmartGauge with EcoGuide introduced with the 2010 Fusion and Milan hybrids.
In 2012, with the introduction of the second generation Fusion, Ford redesigned its SmartGauge with EcoGuide system giving it a newer look and new customizable MyView features. One of the new features, Brake Coach, gives instant feedback on the driver's braking habits and gives advice to maximize the efficiency of the regenerative braking system.

A complete redesign of the Ford Fusion lineup for the model year 2013 was unveiled at the 2012 North American International Auto Show. The new lineup included three optional engines for the conventional four-cylinder-only gasoline model, a next-generation hybrid version, and a plug-in hybrid version, the Ford Fusion Energi. The Ford Fusion was the first production sedan to offer these three powertrain options.{{cite web|url=http://www.ford.com/cars/fusion/2013/?searchid=|title=2013 Fusion|author=Ford|publisher=Ford|access-date=June 10, 2012}} In April 2012 Ford announced that an auto start-stop system would be available for the 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine non-hybrid version, at a price of {{USD|295}}.

The 2013 Fusion Hybrid includes driver assistance and technologies based on sensors, cameras and radar that enable the car to see and respond. Fusion can help drivers maintain proper lane position (Lane Keeping System); adjust vehicle speed to changing traffic conditions through adaptive cruise control; active park assist to help identify suitable parking spaces and help park; and Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) with cross-traffic alert, which consists of sensors in both rear quarter-panels that are able to detect traffic in a driver's blind spot, providing both audible and visual warnings if traffic unseen by the driver is detected. BLIS technology enables cross-traffic alert, even aiding drivers backing out of parking space where visibility is obstructed.{{cite news|url=http://wheels.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/12/29/new-ford-fusion-will-warn-drivers-who-drift/?ref=automobiles|title=New Ford Fusion Will Warn Drivers Who Drift|first=Paul|last=Stenquist|work=The New York Times|date=December 29, 2011|access-date=January 9, 2012}}

=Controversy over fuel economy ratings=
{{update|section|date=July 2014}}
In December 2012, Motor Trend reported that Consumer Reports and Green Car Reports have found that the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid and 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid, which share the same powertrain, do not deliver their triple {{convert|47|mpgus|abbr=on}} EPA ratings in real-world use.{{cite news|url=http://wot.motortrend.com/we-hear-2013-ford-fusion-hybrid-2013-ford-c-max-hybrid-dont-achieve-epa-fuel-economy-ratings-300391.html#axzz2FqEZN68f|title=We Hear: 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid, C-Max Hybrid Don't Achieve EPA Fuel-Economy Ratings|first= Jake|last= Holmes|work=Motor Trend|date=December 4, 2012|access-date=December 24, 2012}}{{cite news|url=http://news.consumerreports.org/cars/2012/12/video-tests-show-2013-ford-fusion-c-max-hybrids-dont-live-up-to-47-mpg-claims.html|title=Tests show Ford Fusion, C-Max hybrids don't live up to 47-mpg claims|work=Consumer Reports|date=December 6, 2012|access-date=December 24, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130414134501/http://news.consumerreports.org/cars/2012/12/video-tests-show-2013-ford-fusion-c-max-hybrids-dont-live-up-to-47-mpg-claims.html|archive-date=April 14, 2013|url-status=dead|df=mdy-all}}{{cite web|url=http://www.greencarreports.com/news/1080580_ford-hybrids-fuel-economy-failing-to-live-up-to-epa-ratings|title=Ford Hybrids' Fuel Economy Failing To Live Up To EPA Ratings? |first=John|last=Voelcker|publisher=Green Car Reports|date=November 20, 2012|access-date=December 24, 2012}} After running both vehicles through Consumer Reports real-world tests, the magazine found that 2013 Fusion hybrid achieved a combined fuel economy average of {{convert|39|mpgus|abbr=on}}, with {{convert|35|and|41|mpgus|abbr=on}} for city and highway. Consumer Reports concluded that the overall fuel economy for the Fusion Hybrid is off by 8 mpg, representing a deviation of about 20%. The consumer magazine said that their overall fuel economy results are usually close to the EPA's combined-mpg estimate, and among current models tested, more than 80% fall within 2 mpg margin. The largest discrepancy the magazine has previously found was 7 and 6 mpg for the Toyota Prius c and the Prius liftback/fastback, respectively.
A few days later the Environmental Protection Agency said it will review claims that two new Ford hybrid vehicles were not delivering the advertised 47 mpg. Linc Wehrly, Director of Light-duty Vehicle Center Compliance Division at EPA's National Vehicle and Fuel Emissions Laboratory in Ann Arbor, Michigan commented that hybrids have far more variability in miles per gallon than a conventional vehicle. Most vehicles' real-world gasoline mileage is less than the EPA sticker number, and can often be 20% less than the sticker number depending on speed, temperature, and other factors. The EPA explained that with hybrids the gap is much wider, as high as a 30% drop.{{cite news|url=http://www.detroitnews.com/article/20121208/AUTO0102/212080368#ixzz2FwSbbWeI|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130122141818/http://www.detroitnews.com/article/20121208/AUTO0102/212080368%23ixzz2FwSbbWeI|url-status=dead|title=EPA will review Ford C-Max, Fusion 47 mpg claims|first1=David|last1=Shepardson|first2=Karl|last2=Henkel|work=The Detroit News|date=December 8, 2012|access-date=December 24, 2012|archive-date=January 22, 2013}} Ford responded in a statement, saying that, "Early C-MAX Hybrid and Fusion Hybrid customers praise the vehicles and report a range of fuel economy figures, including some reports above 47 mpg.

Some of the changes included:
- Increasing the maximum pure electric speed from {{convert|62|to|85|mph|km/h|abbr=on|0}}, allowing increased use of electric-only mode on the highway
- Optimizing the use of Active Grille Shutters to reduce aerodynamic drag under more driving and temperature conditions including cold weather, during air conditioner use, and when the engine coolant temperature is higher
- Reducing the electric fan speed as a function of coolant temperature to minimize the fan's energy consumption
- Shortening engine warm-up time by up to 50 percent to enable electric-only driving and engine shutdown at stops sooner after cold starts
- Optimizing the climate control system to minimize use of the air conditioning compressor and reduce the energy used in cold weather operation.
In August 2013, due to the criticism and after several lawsuits about the worse-than-expected fuel economy, Ford voluntarily lowered all three EPA ratings of the C-Max Hybrid and paid a rebate to 32,000 C-Max owners. The revised fuel economy ratings for combined was lowered from to {{convert|47|to|45|mpgus|abbr=on}}.{{cite news|url=http://www.autonews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20130815/OEM05/130819953/ford-lowers-fuel-economy-rating-on-c-max-hybrid-to-43-mpg#axzz2c5j0FBiD|title=Ford lowers fuel economy rating on C-Max hybrid 8.5% to 43 mpg|first1=Nick|last1=Bunkley|first2=Bradford|last2=Wernle|first3=Gabe|last3=Nelson|work=Automotive News|date=August 15, 2013|access-date=August 16, 2013}}
In June 2014, Ford announced it had discovered an error in the company's internal testing data, and downgraded the fuel economy ratings on six of its 2013 and 2014 model year vehicles, including all its C-Max, Fusion, and MKZ full hybrids and its two plug-in Energi models.
