Kelley Blue Book recently named the new Ford Fusion as the 2013 Best Redesigned Vehicle. The midsize sedan beat out more than 20 other models that also went through extensive changes for the new year. KBB judges looked at a variety of categories, including exterior and interior design, driving dynamics, technology, comfort and convenience features, performance and value. The Fusion outshone its competitors, and Jack R. Nerad, executive editorial director and executive market analyst for KBB, explained that the choice was an easy one.

"More than a handful of vehicles made the shortlist for this year, but ultimately the 2013 Ford Fusion was named KBB.com's 2013 Best Redesigned Vehicle with impressive gains in design, technology and fuel economy," said Nerad. "Outside, the new Fusion is clearly the hottest-looking car in a class with no fewer than 13 other entrants. The interior is just as striking, and a variety of technological enhancements and choice of five powertrains is just icing on the cake. Whatever mix of value, power and fuel efficiency you're looking for in a midsize sedan, the new Fusion has it."
