The 2010 Ford Taurus SHO The 2010 Ford Taurus SHO is one engaging vehicle to drive, with its powerful Eco Boost engine and responsive all wheel drive system. The 3.5 Liter turbocharged V6 works like a V8, making 365 HP, while getting 25 MPG on the highway; this Super High Output model is the future of sport luxury sedans . The styling is 21st century and the forward thinking power plant is a must in todays conservation minded society. The base Taurus will sell for around $30,000 and the high horsepower model will retail closer to $45,000. Ford has something for every price level with their new four door, but we recommend the SHO.

10 Class Exclsuives: The design team boasted about the reborn for 2010 Taurus’s 10 class exclusive features that come standard on all of the new cars, comparing themselves to luxury sedans from around the world like the domestic Chrysler 300, European limousine the Audi A6 and Lexus GS350 from the land of the rising sun; and don’t worry they went easy on the acronyms. Like the BLIS with CTA, the Blind Spot Information System that lets you know if someone is in that hard to see area when you are traveling on the highway and Cross Traffic Alert that warns you of approaching danger when pulling out of a parking spot. Second is the ACC, is the variable pursuit distance Adaptive Cruise Control and the Collision Warning with Brake Support , apparently they couldn’t come up with a catchy slogan for the three part system that, throws up a bar of lights on the windshield, emits an annoying tone and mutes the Sony Sound System that just so happens to be one of the Ford’s 10 exclusive features. Trust us, they both work pretty well.

Top Speed final verdict: The design team focused on creating a bold exterior and a great interior, two tasks at which they have succeeded. Their goal was to infuse the new Taurus with what they call Ford DNA: the look, the feel and the fun of a Ford. They succeeded. The SHO that we drove came in at around $45 large, a considerable step up from the base model of Ford’s new flagship, but the factory tuned version is worth it, coming nicely equipped with a set of 20 inch Luster Nickel aluminum wheels wrapped in the no compromises summer rubber. The car was fun to drive and very responsive despite the rather hefty curb weight. It will be interesting to see what aftermarket tuners like Jack Roush will do with this car.
