The chassis and powertrain are virtually unchanged, however, meaning this "redesigned" Mariner has the same running gear as before.IntroductionSomething of an anomaly in the marketplace, the compact but upscale Mercury Mariner SUV gets a not-so extreme makeover for 2008. The Mariner debuted three years ago as a more luxurious version of Ford's Escape. And like its relative, the Mariner's "top-half" revamping for this year means new sheet metal and a revised interior but no significant revisions to the chassis or running gear.The changes in the looks department include a bolder grille, taller beltline and higher hood, all of which give this junior sport-ute a more aggressive curbside presence.

"It looks good, it has sophisticated style, and it's not like anything else out there."New StylingThe 2008 Mariner has been redesigned in and out, with very little carryover from the previous model year.

All of this in a vehicle that has been cost-reduced (in a way) that is pretty much transparent to the customer, which is pretty much the way you should do cars now."Largely driven by the new model, Escape sales improved 13 percent last month easily blowing past internal objectives and achieving the best retail performance in nearly 2 years."We are very excited.
