Although Ford Motor Company offered up a build page for the 2013 Ford Fusion months ago with preliminary pricing – the company has now added a full blown configuration page complete with official pricing and the best news is that none of the trimlines have increased in price from what Ford first announced back in May.

The one bit of bad news for perspective 2013 Ford Fusion buyers is that the SE Luxury Package costs $2,300 where adding leather and the other luxury features in the preliminary pricing tables was set to cost just $1,505 or $1,545 depending on which EcoBoost engine was chosen.

The Camry Hybrid offers 40mpg around town and combined with 38mpg on the highway while the Fusion Hybrid offers 47mpg across the board.
