Has anyone been able to find anything official from Ford about the official curb weight of the 17 Fusion Sport?

Thanks

I have not seen anything official from Ford yet.

According to Car&Driver, it's 3675 lbs.

That would be amazing if it is 6 lbs lighter than the 2.0 AWD.

Thought I had read the sport was going to be between 100-150 lbs heavier.

And it probably is. Unfortunately I still can't find the actual weight published anywhere.

I haven't seen anything official either but I can report this. See pic.

Sorry pic came out upside-down.
So mine has a GVWR of 5060lbs. It also states that it has a combined occupants and cargo max of 827lbs. I seriously hope that this doesn't mean that my curb weight is 4233lbs. Does this Sport make me look fat honey? No babe, it makes you look FAST!

Was at a dealer today talking about options to order... Had him do a search for an exact match. He found one that is very close and printed me an invoice. It lists it's shipping weight as 3872lbs

Hope this helps!

That sounds about right, it was reported that it would be 100-150 over 2.0 AWD, which is close to 3700.
Since the 2.0 FWD is 3526, I don't think the sport weight increase is all that bad.

I picked up my Sport last week. It has the 401a package with cooled seats and moonroof. I weighed it on calibrated track scales and with a full tank and child seat it was 4180. I am disappointed in this weight, but it is reasonable considering what the car is compared to competitors.

Dang... She hefty....

Wow - that is at least a couple hundred more than I expected.
Thanks!

My Charger w/Hemi weighs about the same....

 

[scoobykvn]

I don't remember the exact numbers, but it was around 55-57% front heavy. If I feel motivated next time I fill up I will weight it again.

 

[elronino]

It is a bit heavy. I think the F/R balance is pretty close and the heft does make her feel pretty stable. I'll just make sure I have an 1/8 tank and no spare when I get to the track.

and go to the bathroom...

That would explain a lot if it is truly 400+ lbs more than the 2.0 AWD.

That weight (I used 4100) and 325 HP yields anywhere from 13.6 to 14.3, 1/4 mile
from running different calculators. Right in line with what some are getting.

I just weighed my sport at the truck stop scales 3900 even with out me in it ...

 

[LeVeL]

I believe @Fastest_fusion_sport weighted his and got 3900 as well.

Yes mine weight the same I don't know how accurate those scales are at low weight

 

[OX1]

3900? unlikely without serious weight reduction.

"And the car feels every bit as heavy as the 4128 pounds measured on our scales."

Tested: 2017 Ford Fusion Sport

Ford packs 325 horsepower under the hood of its mid-size sedan to produce a Q-ship for drivers in a hurry.

"Steering feel is good overall, and the brakes halt the 4,123-pound sedan from 60 to 0 mph in 122 feet."

2017 Ford Fusion Sport EcoBoost AWD First Test

With a high-strung V-6 and all-wheel-drive grip, the Ford Fusion Sport makes it the quickest midsizer we've tested. More on our first test review here.

My base, no spare or jack. EVERYTHING that wasn't nailed done came out, even floor mats, trunk floor carpeting and even engine cover, IIRC.

 

[MY27FUSION]

I have lighter wheels and no rear muffler that is it for weight reductions

 

[OX1]

How heavy is that muffler............ You would think those CAT scales are right on, but when they are weighing up through 80K, maybe they are plus or minus 50-75 lbs and no one cares.
