Ford's ponycar gets a thorough update for 2010, namely with more body creases, revised head and taillamps, and an updated interior packed with Ford's SYNC infotainment system, a backup camera, real-time traffic updates and standard stability control.

Unfortunately, technology doesn't apply to the base model's V-6, which can only muster 210 horsepower from 4.0 liters. Keeping this engine makes no sense, unless Ford has crates of these relics in their parts warehouse (the Fusion's V-6 makes 30 more horsepower from 3.0 liters).
