Mercury Mariners sold in North America will receive an significant update in order to stay competitive against Toyota RAV4, Honda Element and Jeep Patriot. There had been a rumour that the Mariner, Escape and Tribute will use the CD3 platform, however, Ford appears to haved retained and upgraded the CD2 Platform. The 3.0L V-6 may be replaced or supplemented with the 3.6L V-6 debuting in the Ford Edge, to keep pace with other offerings in the segment.
The interior is expected to get a significant upgrade with higher quality materials and revised instrument console. This should end critisisms of cheap construction and poor design.
