Ford Motor Co. has bigger aspirations than challenging Toyota Motor Corp.’s Camry. Its Fusion is about to take on the law of supply and demand.

An assembly plant about 20 miles south of Ford headquarters in Dearborn, Michigan, is preparing to roll Fusion family cars off the line for the first time. The additional supply will test the staying power of a more than $2,300 per-sale premium that Fusion has commanded this year over America’s longtime best-selling car, the Camry.
