TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2020 Ford Fusion still delivers great hybrid fuel economy and classic good looks, even though it's set to retire.

The 2020 Hyundai Sonata mid-size sedan steps out like Joe Jackson among cut-and-paste shapes from the past.

TCC Dislikes

No more Fusion Sport

Snug rear seat

No word on a hybrid
Will every car look as good...
...and will buyers even notice?
