Ford expands its hybrid SUV lineup with Mariner addition
Ford Motor Co will add a Mercury Mariner hybrid SUV to its lineup for 2007, joining the Escape and a forthcoming midsize sedan. The move increases Ford's hybrid count to three as it showcases the vehicles at the New York International Auto Show. The Escape hybrid targets 35 to 40 mpg city, about double a 2005 V6's efficiency, while the sedan version remains unnamed after a rights dispute over the Futura name. Dan Becker of the Sierra Club praised the shift toward cleaner, more efficient big vehicles and urged broader adoption.
