Mercury Milan Hybrid

Price Paid:  $0.00

Strengths:
Great fuel economy, smooth handling, nicely designed interior, Sirius, My Sync

Weaknesses:
Hybrid battery placement reduces trunk space

Summary:
Overall I am very pleased with my purchased. Hands down the best car I have ever driven. Fuel economy is almost at the level promised by Mercury (41 MPG in city). Milan is for those who, like myself, wanted a more conservative, less gaudy exterior than the Fusion and a more refined interior.

The only noticeable drawback is the lack of flexibility with regard to trunk space: the placement of the hybrid battery prohibits the expansion of the trunk. I also notice a slight rigidity in terms of steering corners. Otherwise, Milan is a great car.
