The Mercury Montego is a Mercury passenger car. Production of the listed generation ran from 2004-01-01 to 2007-12-31. The data records 1 generation, Sedan body, and 2 versions.

Both versions share the same engine block figures: 2967 cm³ displacement, Gasoline fuel type, 6 cylinders in a V-shaped layout, 4 valves per cylinder, No boost, Distributed injection (multi-point), compression ratio 10, bore and stroke 89 × 79.5, and fuel grade 92. Peak output is 200 hp (147 kW) at 5750 rpm and 271 Nm at 4500 rpm. Engine location is not measured.

The split is driveline, not power. 3.0 CVT pairs the engine with a Variable gearbox, AWD, 177 km/h top speed, and 1770 kg kerb weight. 3.0 AT pairs it with a 6-speed Automatic, FWD, 200 km/h top speed, and 1655 kg kerb weight. Fuel tank is 72 l and ground clearance is 130 mm on both. 0–100 km/h, city/highway/combined consumption, CO2, eco class, gross weight, and wheel sizes are not measured.

Generations

1 generation (2004–2007)

1 generation ran from 2004-01-01 to 2007-12-31. Body type: Sedan. Version count: 2 — 3.0 CVT and 3.0 AT. No restyling is listed as a separate generation. Both versions share the same start and stop dates as the generation.

Engines and specs

The two versions use the same Gasoline 2967 cm³ 6-cylinder V-shaped engine without boost. Gearbox, gear count, and drive are the catalogue differences.

3.0 CVT

3.0 CVT is the AWD Montego. Power: 200 hp / 147 kW at 5750 rpm. Torque: 271 Nm at 4500 rpm. Displacement: 2967 cm³. Fuel: Gasoline. Cylinders: 6. Layout: V-shaped. Valves per cylinder: 4. Boost: No. Injection: Distributed injection (multi-point). Compression ratio: 10. Bore × stroke: 89 × 79.5. Fuel grade: 92. Gearbox: Variable. Number of gears: not measured. Drive: AWD. Years: 2004-01-01 to 2007-12-31.

3.0 AT

3.0 AT is the FWD Montego. Power: 200 hp / 147 kW at 5750 rpm. Torque: 271 Nm at 4500 rpm. Displacement: 2967 cm³. Fuel: Gasoline. Cylinders: 6. Layout: V-shaped. Valves per cylinder: 4. Boost: No. Injection: Distributed injection (multi-point). Compression ratio: 10. Bore × stroke: 89 × 79.5. Fuel grade: 92. Gearbox: Automatic. Gears: 6. Drive: FWD. Years: 2004-01-01 to 2007-12-31.

Engine location is not measured on either version.

Performance and economy

0–100 km/h is not measured for 3.0 CVT and not measured for 3.0 AT.

Top speed is measured:

3.0 AT is 23 km/h faster at the top than 3.0 CVT (200 − 177). Power and torque are identical, so the gap sits with Automatic vs Variable, FWD vs AWD, and the 115 kg kerb-weight difference (1770 − 1655).

Fuel consumption is not measured in the city, on the highway, or combined for either version. CO2 is not measured. Eco class is not measured. Tank volume is 72 l on both, so range cannot be calculated from catalogue consumption because consumption itself is not measured.

Dimensions and weight

Wheel sizes are not measured for 3.0 CVT and not measured for 3.0 AT.

Kerb weight:

3.0 CVT is 115 kg heavier at kerb (1770 − 1655). Gross vehicle weight is not measured on either version.

Ground clearance is 130 mm on 3.0 CVT and 130 mm on 3.0 AT. Fuel tank is 72 l on both.

Chassis items that are measured and the same on both versions:

Which version to choose

Both versions are 200 hp / 271 Nm Gasoline 2967 cm³ 6-cylinder V-shaped engines with No boost, 4 valves per cylinder, Distributed injection (multi-point), compression 10, 89 × 79.5, and fuel 92. Choice is gearbox, drive, top speed, and weight.

Choose 3.0 CVT if AWD is the requirement. It is the only AWD Montego in this data. Gearbox is Variable; gear count is not measured. Top speed is 177 km/h. Kerb weight is 1770 kg — 115 kg more than 3.0 AT. Clearance 130 mm, tank 72 l, Independent, spring suspension, Disc brakes. 0–100, mpg/consumption, CO2, eco class, gross weight, and wheels are not measured.

Choose 3.0 AT if FWD and a 6-speed Automatic are the requirement, or if the higher listed top speed matters. Drive: FWD. Gearbox: Automatic, 6 gears. Top speed: 200 km/h — 23 km/h above 3.0 CVT. Kerb weight: 1655 kg. Same 130 mm clearance, 72 l tank, Independent, spring suspension, and Disc brakes. 0–100, consumption, CO2, eco class, gross weight, and wheels are not measured.

There is no third engine, no second generation, and no other body. If AWD is needed, the data leaves only 3.0 CVT. If a 6-speed Automatic and FWD are needed, the data leaves only 3.0 AT. Power, torque, displacement, fuel type, cylinder count, layout, boost, injection, compression, bore and stroke, fuel grade, tank, and clearance do not separate them.
