Yes. It varies in distance from the sun. At closest it is about 46,000,000 km and at farthest, 69,800,000 km away. It is the most elliptical orbit of the solar system planets, the measure of which is eccentricity. Mercury is 0.205. Zero is a circle higher numbers are more elliptical, with 0.999... as the limit.

All planets have elliptical orbits.
