2019 Ford Taurus

There are four 2019 Taurus trim levels from which to choose, and all of them offer enticing exterior design cues. On the SE, which is the base trim level, you'll enjoy solar-tinted glass, dual chrome exhaust tips, and black-accented side mirrors. Appearance-wise, the SEL trim is virtually identical to the SE. The only difference is that the SEL offers LED tail lamps. Style-conscious consumers will love the Limited trim level. The side mirrors of this trim feature sharp chrome caps, and there is also a signature front grille and the ability to add fender badges. The SHO trim level is mostly built with performance in mind, but there are some unique style features such as a rear spoiler, high-intensity discharge headlamps, and a mesh front grille.

Performance enthusiasts should be excited at the powertrain selection offered by the 2019 Ford Taurus. Two engines are available in this sedan, both of which provide a pulse-pounding drive. On every trim except the SHO, you'll be powered by a Ti-VCT 3.5-liter V-6 engine that provides great acceleration thanks to 288 horsepower. Choose the SHO trim, and you'll enjoy a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V-6 that delivers an incredible 365 horsepower.

The Ford Taurus offers one of the best selections of performance features you can find in the midsize sedan class. All-wheel-drive is available for motorists who want to be certain they have the best traction possible. With the SHO trim, you'll also have a sport-tuned suspension that provides world-class stability and some truly outstanding handling. A six-speed automatic transmission with shifter button activation provides smooth power transmission.

The cabin of the new Taurus is designed for total comfort, and regardless of where you're sitting, you're in for a relaxing ride. Front seats, for instance, have both cooling and heating options, and backseat passengers won't feel left out thanks to available heated outboard rear seats. A heated steering wheel and dual-zone climate control are also available. Useful technology can also be found throughout the cabin of the Taurus. On the Limited and SHO trim, you'll enjoy a 12-speaker Sony sound system with Clear Phase technology that eliminates static and improves sound quality. An available SYNC 3 infotainment system allows you to control your tech features using only your voice.

In the 2019 Ford Taurus, you'll be safe and sound thanks to a variety of next-level features. An optional blind spot information system signals you when another car drives into your blind spot, and there is also an adaptive cruise control feature that can automatically slow your vehicle when you encounter traffic. For easier parking, there is an optional active park assist system, and cross-traffic alert stops you from backing into another automobile.
