About the Mariner

Built as a compact crossover SUV, the Mariner was a sports utility vehicle created by Ford's subsidiary company, Mercury.

Sister to both the Mazda Tribute and the Ford Escape, the Mariner was intended to sell as a luxurious upgrade to the former two cars.

Global sales were limited by region, Ford decided to make the Mariner available to the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Mexico, and of course, its native homeland, Northern America.

Its first generation debuted as a refreshed version of the Ford Escape, a vehicle that began production in 2001 and is still sold under a number of specifications today. Unfortunately, the Mariner did not have as successful a run, spanning just 6 years up until 2011 when it became a casualty of the closure of the whole Mercury brand.

Initially, the Mariner had a two-tone interior, a manual transmission and Mercury’s iconic waterfall grille. This type of grille was first used in 1939 on a number of Buicks, has been revived throughout the last century and can currently be found on the Opel Adam (or Vauxhall Vectra).

The second generation of Mariners made use of the Ford CD2 platform, bettered the materials and essentially kept the same engine. At this time, new regulations came in worldwide for maximum emission allowances, and so, whilst Mercury fundamentally kept the engine the same, improvements had to be made to maintain the legality of the vehicle. With a full 10% lower emissions, the new Mariners featured a modified 3-liter Duratec V6.

This new generation of Mariner was the very first to feature Ford's pull-drift steering compensation, a system that would constantly monitor the road and weather conditions and adjust to compensate.
