• Solid acceleration with hybrid powertrain, fuel economy in the 30 mpg range, stylish interior with spacious backseat.

• Noisy gasoline engine, added weight of hybrid components detracts from handling, overly stiff brake pedal.

  Brilliant! - 2007 Mercury Mariner Hybrid
  By gandk262 - March 14 - 3:53 pm

  This is amazing. Great mileage, comfort, solid construction - in fact, I was rear-ended at a red light in March and the vehicle that hit me was totalled. Despite the speed at which I was hit I was well protected. The rear gate, bumper, spare tire, cargo bed and battery took the brunt of the hit but I was fine. Fortunately, so were the occupants of the other vehicle. And the mileage? Wow! Wed always avoided SUVs on principle, but if your lifestyle really demands one, this is the way to go.

  Nightmare to own - 2007 Mercury Mariner Hybrid
  By 07Merc - October 1 - 8:30 pm

  I bought this vehicle in 2007 few months after I buying it I needed new floor mats. I have had to replace the navigation system once for overheating but the replacement parts still over heats. The CD changers works when it wants I only use this option rarely because I have had issues since day one. The seat heaters kick on at random. Keyless entry works when it wants too. I have had it in the shop on numerous occasions for ABS issues. Come to find out the ABS sensor and tone ring cant handle winter weather. When I take the vehicle in for most of the issues the magic phrase is there is nothing wrong with it. My wife and I have experienced the same issues.

  Fun SUV - 2007 Mercury Mariner Hybrid
  By Bill C - February 3 - 5:36 am

  I really like my mariner so far. Its got good power and is smooth. Especially at freeway speeds it is fun to get the rpms up a little bit. I like the audio system in it. It sounds pretty good depending on the quality of your cds and mp3s. I am not sure if if is a option or not but it would be nice to have an outside temp gauge. Best of all it gets 30 MPG and Ive got a bit of a lead foot.

  Love my hybrid! - 2007 Mercury Mariner Hybrid
  By Dian - May 5 - 1:23 pm

  OK so its not a high priced sports car (I have one of those as well) and it isnt high powered monster SUV (My husband drives one of those). However, for what it is: economical, comfortable, nimble and reliable (so far) I love it! Yes, it was high priced, but packed with every option, so thats not so horrible. The one down side is that the nav could be better. Im not asking it to compare to the ones Ive had in my luxury cars, or the aftermarket in my husbands Suburban, but I would really like to see some improvements there. Still, it;s fun to drive, easy to park, and very practical. I get 30 MPG without the AC and 27 with AC. Cant complain about that!

  07 MMH Loaded - 2007 Mercury Mariner Hybrid
  By PCollins - April 14 - 7:23 am

  Would buy again if I had to do all over again. Love the look of this SUV! Got up to 30 MPG already during a trip to mall, only have 400 miles on it. I have a feeling if this keeps up, the MPG will be over what is advertised. Block heater and high volt battery preheater should be standard.

  FUV - Fun and Useful Vehicle - 2007 Mercury Mariner Hybrid
  By 4peoplefamily - March 25 - 10:20 pm

  We just bought pre-released 2007 MMH. Drove for 120 miles the first two days. Pickup is quick for a 4-cylinder, ~2 ton vehicle. Softer and quieter ride than expected (except going up steep incline at greater than 65 mph - the engine revs rather high to get the needed power). Its a blast to drive trying to stay in EV to get the best economy.

  2007 my impression - 2007 Mercury Mariner Hybrid
  By j - November 15 - 4:33 am

  good handling and mileage. adequate power but stupid navigator system (small screen, uses multiple cds to operate), no temperature indicator, a/c does not have thermostatic control, harsh ride, wheel adjustment does go high enough, and does not have electonic stability control (a must for a new car)

  Sage Mariner w/o all the optional stuff. - 2007 Mercury Mariner Hybrid
  By Whirl-E-Brid Man - November 25 - 11:06 pm

  Not too big and not to small. Its just right says me. Cloth seats. Solid ride. Quiet. Fun to Drive. The standard equipment is just fine. The gas mileage averages about 30.5 mpg overall in my driving situation which includes about 16 miles of some what rural 2 lane roads that are not congested.

  Going Hybrid is Easy! - 2007 Mercury Mariner Hybrid
  By Y. Mangum - October 22 - 9:06 am

  I just bought a Mercury Mariner last week and I love it so far. I had been looking for a Prius, and when I finally found one on a dealer lot, they were so rude and wouldnt even let me test drive it. I left their lot and found a BETTER hybrid the very same day -- my Mercury Mariner. Its beautiful compared to a Prius. Now, I dont even know why I even considered the Prius! The Mariner has SO much more room and is much more stylish. Ive never owned a Mercury before, but Ive owned the Ford brand and have been happy with those vehicles. Im looking forward to being in my new Hybrid vehicle for a long time to come!

  Mariner Review - 2007 Mercury Mariner Hybrid
  By John Bernards - August 31 - 9:30 am

  I drive many short trips taking grand children to and from school and events. The trips are frequent but unscheduled. Many of the trips are 2 miles or less. I have had no problems with the vehicle and am getting over 25 MPG. Excellent vehicle.
