APPEARANCE: "Its chunky, high-shouldered body and long, low passenger cabin, with well-sloped windshield and rear window, give it a muscular look, which is further emphasized by bold character lines on the hood and sides."
COMFORT: "While space is not at a premium inside the Taurus, neither is it wasted. The result is hip- and leg-room usually associated with a crossover or SUV. No complaints about headroom, either, and there are many useful small and not so small storage areas around the cabin."
SAFETY: "starts with a strong, rigid main unibody structure designed and built for passenger protection. A full complement of, front, front side, and full-length "Safety Canopy"® air bags is standard,"
RIDE AND HANDLING: "fully-independent MacPherson strut front, multilink rear suspension is tuned moderately, for good ride comfort, but with good attention paid to the details of tuning."
PERFORMANCE: "the naturally-aspirated models are not deficient, with 263 horsepower (at 6250 rpm) and 249 lb-ft of torque (at 4500 rpm) from the 3.5-liter twin-cam V6 engine."
CONCLUSIONS: Full-size sedans are not dead! See the current Ford Taurus for details.
