    Mercury was an American-market division of automobile manufacturer Ford Motor Company. Created in 1938 by Edsel Ford, Mercury was an entry-level premium brand intended to bridge the price gap between the Ford and Lincoln vehicle lines (with the division forming half of the later Lincoln-Mercury division). As similar brands, Buick and Oldsmobile played a similar role within General Motors while Mercury competed against the namesake brand of Chrysler (following the cancellation of the DeSoto brand in 1960).
    Although the initial Mercury Eight was unique to the division, to save development costs (using rebadging, to various extents), nearly all Mercury vehicles would share bodies with Lincoln and Ford vehicles, or both; during the development of the Edsel, several vehicles would derive common chassis underpinnings with Mercury vehicles.
    In the summer of 2010, Ford Motor Company announced the discontinuation of the Mercury division as it consolidated its marketing and engineering efforts on the Ford and Lincoln brands. Production of Mercury vehicles ceased in the fourth quarter of 2010. At the time, Ford sold Mercury vehicles in the United States, Mexico, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, and the Middle East.
