TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2017 Chrysler 200 excels for safety and style, but rear seat headroom is a problem and it has trouble grabbing sales away from its very tough competition.

The 2017 Ford Fusion blends enduring good looks, a wide variety of powertrains, impressive interior space and comfort along with all the latest electronic safety systems and a few design upgrades.

TCC Dislikes

Tight rear-seat space
Gas mileage can't compete with hybrids, plug-ins
Handling is no standout

Highest MPG costs more
Rear seat room only average
Rearview camera optional on Fusion S
