Mercury Mariner hybrid suv for fuel economy






Mercury Mariner hybrid suv is one among the niche of hybrid suvs. Priced at $26,955.00, the Mariner is able to achieve 400 miles on a single full tank of fuel and gives an average mileage of 30mpg. For the first time since its introduction, this hybrid suv is available in a dual option front or a four wheel drive.The hybrid system in the Mariner 2008 uses a 2.3L 4 cylinder engine, with a 133 hp output, mated to a continuously variable transmission system (CVT).

When tested, the acceleration was similar to a vortec-8 engine, yet mariner features a smaller gasoline engine. Another good news is that Mercury offers an 8-year or 100,000-mile warranty with the entire system. What else do you need?Regenerative disc breaks have some back and provides a remarkable fuel economy.Ford have placed significantly improved cabin electronics system comparing to old hybrid models.
The negative thing is that price is a bit high considering the SUV standards. Also the resolution of the navigation system is poor.Yet this is not a big factor while a hybrid suv is rated.
