Since its facelift for the 2010 model year, the Ford Fusion has enjoyed a record breaking year in sales – and now the Fusion can brag about becoming the top-selling domestic car in America.

The Fusion has been on the market since its debut nearly five years ago, but only recently has it gained significant attention consumers.

The Fusion’s heavily-marketed class-leading fuel economy and refreshed styling have helped propel it to a year-to-date sales total of 151,137 units for the first 10 months of the year.

Ford says that the Fusion is attracting more than 60 percent of its buyers away from import brands like Toyota and Honda .

Unquestionably, the Fusion has helped drive Ford to its first quarterly profit since the first quarter of 2005.
