Ford Focus features the optional 1.0-litre turbo three-cylinder engine with auto stop\/start technology that provides better fuel economy than the competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ford Fusion offers two turbocharged engines: including a pretty impressive twin-turbo V6 that can put out 325 horsepower. Unlike the rest of its class, the 2017 Ford Fusion features an all-wheel drive option \u2014 perfect for drivers in Canada!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-default\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h4><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sherwoodford.ca\/clp-ford-model-comparisons\">COMPARE FUSION &amp; FOCUS TO THE COMPETITION<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-default\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sherwoodford.ca\/new-ford-fusion-sherwood-park-ab\">2017 Ford Fusion<\/a> looks more like an entry-level luxury sedan than a member of the midsize sedan class. The 2017 Ford Fusion Sport model is back in the Fusion lineup, exclusively featuring the celebrated 325-horsepower <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sherwoodford.ca\/blog\/whats-included-with-2017-ford-fusion-v6-sport\/\">2.7-litre EcoBoost V6 engine<\/a>. The EcoBoost V6 engine is the only non-luxury family sedan to crack the 300-horsepower mark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Available as a sedan or hatchback, the 2017 Ford Focus provides options for car buyers. When you include the addition of the ST and RS high-performance hatchback models, you can see why more car buyers choose the Ford Focus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sherwoodford.ca\/test-drive-cars-sherwood-park-ab\">Take a test drive<\/a> in the 2017 Focus and 2017 Fusion right here at Sherwood Ford.
