About Mercury Monterey
Following a drop in minivan sales in the mid-2000s, the Freestar and Monterey were phased out after the 2007 model year, with no direct replacement. The model line was functionally matched in North America by the 7-passenger 2008 Ford Taurus X wagon/CUV; in Mexico, the Freestar was replaced by the Ford Transit/Tourneo. Ford returned to the segment in 2014, when the Ford Transit Connect compact MPV gained 7-passenger seating in North America.
Ford discontinued the Freestar and Monterey after falling far short of sales projections in 2007. Oakville Assembly completed the final Monterey on August 25, 2006, and the final Freestar on December 29, 2006.
Ford largely replaced the Freestar in Mexico and export markets with the V185 Ford Transit/Tourneo (front-wheel drive). In North America, Ford was the first American manufacturer to abandon the minivan segment entirely, with the Ford Taurus X (Freestyle) marketed as a 7-passenger vehicle by Ford; in 2009, the Taurus X was replaced by the Flex and Explorer.
