Reviews
"The 2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid has the practical configuration of a small SUV, along with the low emissions and good fuel economy of a hybrid. Its cabin electronics are up-to-date, although not extraordinary."—CNET Reviews3
"Although the Mariner has been a favorite of ours in the past, the current model's mostly cosmetic changes aren't enough to keep up in the fast-moving compact SUV game. It is eclipsed by recently revamped and more competent rivals from Honda, Toyota and Mitsubishi, and we recommend that you try them before buying a Mariner."—Edmunds.com4
