Ranking 3rd in the list of Affordable large Cars as per the test drives taken Mercury Sable a safe, roomy and a family car. It is a modern and processed large sedan that was reborn from the Montego for the 2008 model year. The Sable's design was so ultramodern, that it was called by the press "The car that came from the moon.” This sedan proves itself a worthy car if viewed from all angles. Along with comfort and style its outer-shell deserves lot of compliments due to the trendy design modification and its sleek appearance.

The Sable is however powered by a 263-hp 3.5-liter V6 bolted to a six-speed automatic transmission that puts it to the ground through either the front wheels or an all-wheel drive system. In safety features, one can surely say the 2009 Mercury Sable is a boss in its class. Standard safety features includes electronic constancy control, traction control, LED brake lights, four-wheel disc anti-lock brakes, six airbags, and Ford's Safety Canopy that guards occupants in a turn over’s. The Premier trim adds a undo sensing system and an anti-theft alarm as well as many luxury features such as dual-zone climate control, 18" alloy wheels, SYNC communication system, SIRIUS satellite radio, a 6-disc CD changer and leather seating. For 2009 the Sable attaches an SOS-Post Crash Alert system which enables the activation of horn and emergency flashers when the airbags sets up, a tire pressure monitoring system as well as stability control as customary on all trim levels completing a most capale safety package inb all.

Though the Sable has a big list of features, its handling leaves a lot to be desired and its V6 provides simply adequate power just getting the the job done, pulling the Sable around with enough zest, leaving reviewers unimpressed when once they start to drive it!
