The Mercury Cougar is an American pony car introduced in 1967 by Mercury, Ford's upscale division, built on the same platform as the Ford Mustang but positioned with more standard luxury features and a longer wheelbase to appeal to buyers wanting Mustang performance with a more refined character. It won Motor Trend's Car of the Year award in its debut year and remained a distinct Mercury nameplate for decades.
