    Mercury Montego

    EPA MPG: NA

    RECALL ALERT:
    There are 2 recalls on this vehicle. Learn More.

    First Take
    The Mercury Montego (and its twin, the Ford Five Hundred) is a roomy sedan that emphasizes comfort and good ergonomics over performance and pizzazz. It features an elevated seating position for good outward vision and cabin access. The rear seat is immense. Power comes from an overtaxed and unpolished 3.0-liter V6 engine that is mated to either a six-speed automatic on front-wheel-drive models or a continuously variable transmission (CVT). The AWD model was sluggish at launch. Handling is agile, especially considering the Montego's size. The ride is comfortable.
