The Ford Fusion Hybrid won the Consumer Favorite in Edmunds.com’s hybrid vehicle survey, narrowly beating the Toyota Prius. The Ford Fusion Hybrid earned 26 percent of the votes, closely followed by the Toyota Prius with 23 percent.

“Ford’s midsize hybrid sedan, which helped boost Ford’s overall sales performance in an otherwise dismal 2009, has been praised for its smooth operation, fuel economy, looks and interactive information system that helps drivers modify their behind-the-wheel behavior to increase fuel economy,” according to Edmunds’ GreenCarAdvisor.com Senior Editor John O’Dell.
