The overview
The Villager minivan shared a platform, including its 3.0-liter V6, with the Nissan Quest. A 1999 redesign brought a larger V6, more room, a second sliding door, and a foldable, sliding third seat. Crash-test results are not encouraging. In 2004 the Villager was replaced by the Mercury Monterey, an upscale version of the Ford Freestar powered by a noisy and unrefined 4.2-liter V6. The ride is unsettled, but handling is secure. The third-row seat folds flat into the floor, but second-row seats are too low. Fit and finish trails the class leaders. Crash-test results are impressive.

Behind the data
Latest source update: September 11, 2026
Vehicle summaries, specifications, pricing and ratings come from Consumer Reports vehicle records. Auto Guide groups these records by model and reported generation start year.
Available years are listed explicitly. Gaps do not imply that a model was discontinued. Prices are source estimates, not live offers. No first-hand road test by Auto Guide is claimed.
