Toledo, Ohio (CaymanMama.com) — One of the most popular midsize cars has beat out some of the biggest contenders as Motor Trend magazine’s car of the year.

The 2010 Ford Fusion beat out the Toyota Prius, BMW 7-Series, Chevrolet Camaro, among others in the heated competition.

It was yet another honor to add to the stack for Ford Motor Co.’s midsize sedan, which scored remarkably high in reliability rankings from Consumer Reports. In addition, the 2010 remained the top-selling car made by a Detroit automaker through last month.

Even in the wake of its top honor, the Fusion has a way to go before it catches up with the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord — constant leaders in the competitive U.S. mid-size industry.

According to the AP, “Motor Trend said the Fusion can compete with the Camry and Accord in performance, comfort and fuel efficiency. It praised Ford for offering several versions of the Fusion, including a fuel-efficient gas-electric hybrid and a sporty version with a V-6 engine.”

“Ford has proven its resilience in these tough times by delivering to market a car with broad appeal to a broad range of consumers,” Motor Trend Editor in Chief Angus MacKenzie said in a statement.
