DETROIT (November 17, 2009)--The Ford Fusion beat out 22 competitors including the redesigned Toyota Prius, the BMW 7-Series and Chevrolet’s Camaro to win the title of Motor Trend magazine's car of the year.

Motor Trend says the mid-size Fusion offers good performance, comfort and fuel-efficiency and it praised Ford Motor Co. for offering several versions of the Fusion, including a fuel-efficient hybrid and a sporty version with a V-6 engine.

The magazine chooses the car of the year after extensive road testing. To compete, cars had to be new or significantly upgraded for the 2010 model year.

I do not give much credence to what they say. I tried buying their "car of the year" a few times and got dud after dud after dud.
