Perhaps the same will be said about the 2010 Ford Fusion, the most recent spy shots of which show its interior completely uncovered and a truly giant touch screen positioned dead center in the center stack. We thought the touch screen in the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/first-drive-2008-jaguar-xf/728482/">Jaguar XF</a> and new <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/first-drive-2009-lincoln-mks/845241/">Lincoln MKS</a> were big (both Ford products, btw), but this puts them to shame. Other interior changes are minor but important as Ford has apparently chosen to leave the overall dash design the same and focused instead on stuffing the Fusion with cool high-tech content. There are new gauges and new vents directly above the big flat screen, while the analog clock has been ditched entirely. All HVAC controls have now been moved below the screen and should be easy to adjust with one hand on the shifter. But seriously, isn't that a HUGE screen to be in a moderately priced family sedan. Considering the overwhelming success Ford has had selling the Focus by touting its high-tech superiority courtesy of SYNC, we imagine its strategy for the Fusion is to go one step further and offer customers a touchscreen they can't get anywhere else. Here's hoping it's not a $2,500 option.

But since the interior of the Fusion is much smaller than Ford's full-size truck, the screen appears to be much bigger.</em><br /><br /><div class="postgallery"><p><s trong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ford-fusion-redesign-spy-pics/">Ford Fusion redesign - spy pics</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ford-fusion-redesign-spy-pics/856925/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/06/fusion.interior2.kgp.ed_t humbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ford-fusion-redesign-spy-pics/856924/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/06/fusion.interior1.kgp.ed_t humbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ford-fusion-redesign-spy-pics/833235/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/05/fusion.mule.unc1.kgp.ed_t humbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ford-fusion-redesign-spy-pics/833234/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/05/fusion.mule.unc2.kgp.ed_t humbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ford-fusion-redesign-spy-pics/833233/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/05/fusion.mule.unc3.kgp.ed_t humbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><br />[Source: KGP Photography]<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/06/11/spy-shots-2010-ford-fusion-features-super-sized-screen/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/forward/1222750/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a> | <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/06/11/spy-shots-2010-ford-fusion-features-super-sized-screen/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p><hr />
