The 2007 Mercury Milan Introduces a Stylish Alternative in the Midsize Sedan Segment Review

August 2006
Filed under: LINCOLN Car News | LINCOLN Headlines
The 2007 Mercury Milan offers the best of both worlds — challenging the purely practical conventions of the midsize sedan segment by giving owners everything they need without giving up style — all at an unexpected value.

The 2007 Mercury Milan adds a host of standard safety features such as traction control, anti-lock brakes and side-impact and side curtain airbags. All-wheel-drive will be available this fall.

Mercury’s metro-cool design is inspired by large, modern cities that advance fine arts and architecture much like the vehicle’s namesake, Milan, Italy, did in the 19th century.

The Milan and her sister car, the Ford Fusion, have been tearing up the charts, posting 110,855 sales through the first six months of this year. Market share has also been climbing steadily, gaining nearly 2 percentage points.

For 2007, the Milan adds a host of standard features such as anti-lock brakes and the safety and security package. This package includes side-impact air bags for the driver and front passenger, side curtain air bags for first and second rows, and an anti-theft perimeter alarm system. Traction control is also now standard on V-6 models.

Most significantly, Mercury will offer an all-wheel-drive system on the Milan, a feature not found on competitive products. All wheel drive improves handling and optimizes traction on slick surfaces, enhancing driver confidence.

The Milan’s spacious, quiet interior is the perfect environment to enjoy the available SIRIUS Satellite Radio or use the DVD-based navigation system. The standard auxiliary jack provides hookup for an MP3 player.

The Milan offers seating for five and a roomy, 15.8-cubic-foot trunk that boasts a flat load floor and low liftover height, as well as compact decklid hinges that won’t crush boxes or groceries. The 60/40-split rear seat has a fold-flat function with spring assist, allowing pass-through access to handle extra-long items and provide best-in-class storage space. For 2007, the Milan is equipped with a standard fold-down, front-passenger seat to accommodate extra-long cargo.

Customers can choose from two trim levels (Standard and Premium) and two powertrains. The standard Duratec 2.3-liter four-cylinder delivers 160 horsepower. Transmission choices include a five-speed manual and a five-speed automatic. Equipped with the five-speed manual, the standard Duratec 23 returns 23 miles per gallon in the city and 31 mpg on the highway.

An available 221-horsepower, 3.0-liter V-6, mated to a six-speed transmission, delivers impressive performance as well as 20 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway.
