Mercury Sable

Yes. At one time, the Mercury was a full lone of automobiles and even had a line of llight trucks. Most of these cars were simply re-identified and rebadged Ford products. Most recent have been cars like the Contour/Mistique and Crown Victorua/Grand Marquis. Late 70s and early 80s saw the T-Bird and Cougar sharing the same body shell/ powertrain.

SimilarlyDodge once shared platforms with their Plymouth division. GM is the king of cross-marque platforming... In the early 80s, the Cadillac division was ballsy enough to re-identify a Cavalier or similar econo-box... complete with leather seats and wire wheel hubcaps. The Cimarron didn't last in production for very long....

Not to mention the current pairings: Montego/FiveHundred (based on Volvo S80) Milan/Fusion (based on Mazda 6) Mountaineer/Explorer Monterey/FreeStar Mariner/Escape GrandMarquis/CrownVic

The Sable is no longer in production. The Taurus alone is being built for fleet sales only for a few more months.

Even most Lincolns are based on Ford vehicles, although they usually have very different suspensions and other details compared to Mercury, which are usually little more than different grills and taillights.
