Used Ford Taurus for Sale

The Ford Taurus is an excellent option if you are looking for a fun, comfortable ride that, while not lacking in style, sells itself with substance. This is the kind of car that offers sporty performance and luxury features without wasting effort on being flashy. Additionally, with its spacious interior and available all-wheel-drive (AWD) option, it's a viable alternative to getting an SUV. For example, the 2010 Ford Taurus has 102 cubic feet of interior space. The 2019 Ford Taurus SEL and Limited trims have optional AWD, while the SHO comes standard with AWD. The Taurus is also appealing if you are looking for high performance. The sixth-generation lineup of the Ford Taurus (2010-2019 model years) offers four powerful engine options.  

Ford removed the Taurus name from production and replaced it with the Ford 500 full-size sedan line from 2005 to 2007. Ford restored the Taurus name, replacing the 500, for the 2008 and 2009 model years. The main difference between the fifth and the previous generation models is the shift from a midsize sedan body to a full-size sedan body. The sixth-generation featured a redesigned body and re-introduced the high-performance SHO trim. While the sixth-generation Ford Taurus models are consistent between yearly updates, the 2013 mid-generation facelift made a few notable changes to the later models. The mid-generation update added a new 2.0L turbo engine option and upgraded the horsepower on the standard 3.5L V6 engine. The 2013 update also features improved brakes and a sportier-designed hood. 

The 2010 Ford Taurus SE comes with a 263 horsepower engine 3.5L Duratec® V6 engine while the 2013 Ford Taurus SE comes with a 288 horsepower 3.5L Ti-VCT V6 engine. The 2013 Ford Taurus SE, SEL, and Limited trims are all available with the optional 2.0L EcoBoost® engine which trades horsepower for improved torque. The smaller EcoBoost® engine gets 240 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque. The update did not lead to any changes with the upgraded 3.5L EcoBoost™ V6 engine found on the 2010 Ford Taurus SHO models that gets 365 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque.
