Here's a pretty good, realistic review of the new FuSpo. There are no hard #s yet, unfortunately, but this review seems to fit my opinion nicely.

This article kiinda takes a jab at the SHO, which everybody makes out to be some big wallowing pig. I know it's a bit bigger than the Fusion, but it can't be THAT bad, can it?
'17 Fusion Sport 2.7l Ecoboost AWD
Ortiz Tune  (in progress)

2017 Ford Fusion Sport, 1st stock run: 8.98 @ 77.15 MPH

2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

These are good numbers.  Look at that curb weight!   These acceleration numbers are quite a bit stronger than I have seen elsewhere.  Makes me a little bit skeptical but they really are in line with what you would expect with 380 ft/lbs of torque.

C/D TEST RESULTS:


Curb weight: 4128 lb
Zero to 60 mph: 5.1 sec
Zero to 100 mph: 13.3 sec
Zero to 130 mph: 24.7 sec
Rolling start, 5-60 mph: 5.8 sec
Top gear, 30-50 mph: 2.9 sec
Top gear, 50-70 mph: 3.5 sec
Standing ¼-mile: 13.7 sec @ 101 mph
Top speed (governor limited): 131 mph
Braking, 70-0 mph: 178 ft
Roadholding, 300-ft-dia skidpad*: 0.84 g

Makes me want to see times for an MKZ or Continental with the 3.0.
