MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS review.
Year after year, the Mercury Grand Marquis is a sales leader among full-size sedans, and it’s easy to see why. It has the most horsepower and torque, the roomiest interior and the biggest trunk of any vehicle in its class.
The Mercury Grand Marquis is the only vehicle in its class with a standard V-8 engine — the 4.6-liter, single-overhead-cam V-8, which produces 224 horsepower at 4,800 rpm and 275 pound-feet of torque at 4,000 rpm. All Grand Marquis models use a four-speed automatic transmission with electronic automatic overdrive.

The six-passenger Grand Marquis offers 107.4 cubic feet of passenger volume. The spacious trunk holds 20.6 cubic feet of luggage, while its low liftover height of 26.8 inches makes loading and unloading easy. A trunk organizer is available.
Major safety features include the robust frame, further strengthened with the addition of hydroformed front rails and redesigned crossmembers. In side tests, the Grand Marquis received five stars for rear-seat passengers and four stars for front-seat occupants from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, in models tested without the optional side air bags.
Four-wheel disc ABS is standard, as is Ford’s Personal Safety System®. Other safety and security features include a valet key, remote keyless entry, an illuminated entry system, child safety locks for the rear doors, and the SecuriLock™ anti-theft system.
