TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2019 Buick Regal is a new idea on an old name. Available as a fastback or wagon this time around it's certainly sharp, but could use a little more polish.

The 2019 Ford Fusion’s good looks get shoppers in the door, but this sedan is starting to show its age.

TCC Likes

Handsome European styling
Plenty of power
Confident road manners and handling

Still looks good after all these years
An engine for every need and budget
Thrifty Fusion Hybrid

TCC Dislikes

Will Americans notice a hatchback or wagon?
Lower trims lack important safety tech
Fit and finish is not that premium at any level

Been around for a while
Due to be discontinued
Tight rear seat
