Mercury was an American automobile brand owned by Ford Motor Company, positioned between Ford and Lincoln, produced from 1938 until its discontinuation in 2011. The brand offered stylish, mid-range vehicles such as the Grand Marquis, Cougar, and Sable, aimed at buyers seeking more comfort and features than a standard Ford without the full cost of a Lincoln. Mercury built a reputation for smooth-riding sedans and a handful of performance variants that appealed to enthusiasts. Although production ended over a decade ago, Mercury vehicles remain a familiar sight on American roads.
