2007 mercury milan review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. Solid midsize sedan, available with all-wheel drive. introductionthe 2007 mercury milan drives well and is the product of some of ford's best engineering. Milan is based on the superb mazda 6 platform and shares much in common with the ford fusion. The cabin is inviting, with nice interior materials and better than average detailing. We liked the contrast stitching in the seats. Also, it's an easy car to use. Fold-down rear seats add an extra measure of space and utility. The v6 gets an epa-rated 28 mpg on the highway and comes with a six-speed automatic transmission, a rarity in this class, which gives both better acceleration and better fuel economy than a five-speed automatic. for 2007, mercury has added two all-wheel-drive models to the lineup: milan v6 awd and milan premier v6 awd. Traction control is standard on all v6 milan models in 2007. walkaroundthe mercury milan looks crisp and new. It looks like it belongs to a completely different family of cars than the ford fusion, thanks to major changes to the roof, side glass, headlamps, grille and taillamps. The doors are the only shared body panels between milan, fusion, mazda 6, and lincoln mkz. the traditional mercury waterfall grille, as opposed to the ford fusion three-bar grille, is surrounded by more conventional combination headlamp units (versus the ford version's trapezoidal headlamps). out back, the high decklid is framed by a pair of bright led taillamps that look like they came from a japanese or german car, large and nicely integrated. The side view is pumped up several notches on the premier version with its 14-spoke 17-inch alloy wheels and relatively fat 225/50r17 tires. three color choices are available in 2007 for milan: silver birch, dark amethyst and alloy. In addition, a rear spoiler is available to rev up the appearance factor. interiorthe mercury milan cabin is quite tasty. We felt more like we were sitting in them than on them. the rear seat folds down in 60/40 fashion, enabled by an easy-pull latch on each side, to eliminate leaning over the decklid opening and fumbling for seatback latches. The interior is roomy enough for a 6-foot, 4-inch passenger to sit behind a 6-foot, 4-inch driver, with real headroom. The rear door panels are scooped out for more elbow room. A fold-down front passenger seat is standard on all 2007 milan models, adding to the vehicle's versatility. storage cubbies are all over the place, two in the console, one quite large one at the top center of the dash with a latching lid, two more in each front door pocket hollowed out to take a big gulp cup, and one in the bottom center of the dashboard, all of which add up to convenience and ease. High-speed handling showed predictable, normal and usual levels of understeer. the ride, over the universally awful streets of detroit, was quite good, with lots of compliance to soak up bumps, not too much body roll, and quiet, smooth operation. the brakes, on the other hand, were strong and direct, without a lot of wasted pedal travel before deceleration starts to happen, and low effort-to-stop ratio. summarythe mercury milan is a thoroughly nice family car and we think it's an excellent choice in its price range. From the waterfall grille up front to the brushed metallic trim all over the interior, this is a ford platform upgraded to mercury status, with more standard equipment and more soul than the ford version, the fusion. newcartestdrive.
