Looks like Ford is "Outback-ifying" the Fusion as expected

Interesting that they are using a mk4 Focus wagon body. But why that str ange bulge at the C pillar?

I was going to say “isn’t that a Focus?” Looks like they are using the body as camo, and the bulge is to make up for the added length on the Fusion chassis. Seems the fenders have been widened too. 

This is what we'll show whenever you publish anything on Kinja: > KingT- 60% of the time, it works every time 10/15/2019 at 10:06

Gotta say, this version of the Vanquish Zagato looks a little heavy on the Gorilla Tape for my liking. Exposed fasteners tho!

Hmm, wonder if this will actually be a US market vehicle or Euro only.

How has the last gen  fusions held up vs outbacks?

I don’ t think anyone has compared them because we didn’t have the fusion wagon in the states. Perhaps we could compare a Legacy vs. Fusion AWD instead.

Will North America get it though. While I’m here. You guys can have the ruddy Puma, now Ford has destroyed it’s name.

W hat’s with the weird/bent real lines - looks like they took a hatch, cut the back off and just stuck a longer section on that didn’t line up right.  Maybe that’s just preproduction...

very early crude prototype. Sure hope the final form doesn’t look like this.

They could just take the existing euro Mondeo wagon and lift it

If you look close you can see where the whole body has been widen a good 2 inches. Is obviously just a place holder.

Is this a natural gas vehicle? That looks like a CNG fill port and shutoff valve in the rear bumper.

It would make sense to bring it to the US. Ford was planning to sell the Focus Active here but canceled that plan because they build it in China and Trump’s tariffs made it unprofitable to import.
