andyross Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 (edited) The 2017 Fusion Sport will be tested on the PBS series "Motorweek" soon. The other car being tested is the new Audi A4, which may show as the main subject in schedule searches. Here in Chicago, it will air Friday, November 11, 6pm and 12:30am Saturday, WTTW Prime (broadcast 11.2, Comcast 370). WYCC (broadcast 20.1, Comcast 240) will also air that episode November 14 at 5:30am and 7pm. The show also airs on Velocity, typically a week or two later, so assume it will air there during Thanksgiving week. Others can post when it may air in their areas. I also assume it will eventually be available on the Motorweek web site. Edited November 4, 2016 by andyross 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
propwash Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 I just saw that episode. It was a fairly quick review, but they did cover quite a few areas. They got a 5.3 second zero to sixty time, with 13.9 seconds at 99 mph in the quarter mile. It looks like the brakes could do a little better--the stopping distance wasn't all that great. Prices for the Sport start at $34.350. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timwil56 Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 I watched that episode. A good review on the drive train and performance, but a little short on interior and styling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
