2015 Ford Fusion: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The biggest change for the 2015 Ford Fusion is a standard rearview camera across the gas, hybrid and plug-in hybrid lineup. Otherwise, this is a light update with no redesign or major powertrain changes.
About the 2015 Ford Fusion
2nd gen (2013-2020), third model year before the later facelift.
Ford positions the Fusion as a style-first midsize sedan that does not force shoppers to choose between mainstream practicality and a more upscale look and feel. Its core appeal is broad choice within one familiar shape: regular gas power, a full hybrid, or a plug-in hybrid, plus a cabin that aims to feel quieter and more tech-focused than many rivals. The differentiator is variety without moving into a luxury brand price class.
The 2015 Fusion lineup covers straightforward gas sedans, fuel-saving hybrids and plug-in hybrids built for short electric commutes with gasoline backup. The Titanium trims emphasize comfort and technology with heated leather seats and a 12-speaker Sony audio system, while the gas Titanium uses a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine. Plug-in hybrid versions have a 7.6-kWh battery, a charge cord and selectable electric-driving modes.
What changed, by category

Tech and equipment
The SE and SE Hybrid gain a standard six-way power front-passenger seat, while the gas SE also makes Bluetooth standard. The 8-inch touchscreen changes from standard to optional on the gas Titanium and both plug-in hybrid trims.

2015 Ford Fusion
(263 reviews)
“Three months after my purchase, and 5 days after the warranty expired, my car stopped running entirely. I now have to make expensive decisions and repairs. I think the battery died. Other than that, the car was very nice.”
“I love the car I purchased! The 2015 Ford Fusion SE with the luxury package looks so modern it can definitely go head to toe with some of the newer models. Nice bucket leather seats, touch screen, Bluetooth, excellent navigation, bronze fire color exterior, and easy on the gas.”
