Mercury Milan Hybrid Review

Hybrid cars have flooded the market these days. More and more people are becoming aware of the harm they are causing the environment. Hybrid cars come in sleek designs and high powered engines. Compared to their predecessors they have come a long way in terms of technological innovation. The hybrid cars have stronger engines with more horse power and torque strength. Their designs are more appealing to a wider array of audiences who are looking for sporty looks.
The interiors and exteriors of today’s hybrid are better looking and more comfortable than their plastic predecessors. But you still can’t avoid feeling fake and robotic inside a hybrid but at the very least improvements have been made.
The Mercury Milan Hybrid is one of the hybrids out on the market. It has a tag price of $33,000. Another hybrid, such as the Fusion is sold at a lower price but is almost identical to the Mercury Milan. The one significant difference is their appearance.
The Mercury Milan’s handle is good and so is the steering. It handles well driving down roads and turning corners. But there are times it falls back on the old habit of hybrids of feeling mechanical and robotic. I like my cars feeling a bit rough and rugged when it comes to steering. I like to feel the turn of the wheel and the cracks on the pavement but that’s just me. It’s a matter of personal preference it is still your choice.
Overall I like the driving experience of the Mercury Milan. It has good handling even on rough pavements. The suspension is good and helps lessen the torque pull.
The Mercury Milan does not feel like your typical cheap looking hybrid. It breathes elegance and luxury inside and out with its improvements. The new components are made of high quality and meshes well with the aesthetic. The inside gives off a futuristic feel and modern look. The cabin is comfortable and helps make the ride enjoyable for both driver and passenger.
The Mercury Milan has come a long way in lessening the typical problems faced by hybrid cars. It is not as electric in steering as most of its predecessors and some of its colleagues. It has a good engine that gives it enough power to drive it for long rides or run it fast in short bursts. It also has a good battery that supports the car for some stretches of time on the road.
