The Taurus is Ford’s large sedan and one of the most affordable in its class. 2019 is the last year of production for the Taurus, so this is the last chance drivers have to get this spacious, smooth-riding vehicle. The comfortable seating and high-quality interior make this an excellent choice for commuters. Here’s how the 2019 Taurus will get you to work in style.
The Models
The base Taurus is the SE which has 18-inch alloy wheels, and automatic headlights. The SEL adds to the exterior look with body-colored side door mirrors, and puddle lamps. The Limited comes with 19-inch wheels, an auto-dimming driver’s side mirrors, and interior upgrades. The SHO is the top-level Taurus. This model has all the equipment from the Limited, it adds 20-inch wheels that are exclusive to the SHO, and it has xenon headlights and a rear spoiler. You’ll also get sleek looking black exterior trim elements and dual exhaust tips.
The Powerful Ride
The Taurus will not only get you to work in style; it will get you there with plenty of power. The entry-level engine is a 3.6-liter V-6 that gets 288 horsepower, and if you bump up to the SHO, you’ll get even more power. This model has a 3.5-liter V-6 engine under the hood that delivers 365 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque. Adding the SHO Performance package bumps up the performance with is revised final-drive ratio for faster acceleration. This package also adds summer performance tires, upgraded brake pads, and an upgraded stability control system that includes a Track mode.
In the Cabin
Your ride to work in the Taurus will be comfortable with the power-adjustable front seats that make it easy to find the right position. Cloth upholstery comes standard with the option for leather in the higher trims. You can also add heated and ventilated seats in the front, a heated steering wheel for a comfortable grip when the weather turns colder, and heated rear seats to keep your commuting partners comfortable.
Technology
The base Taurus comes with a 4.2-inch display screen, and two USB ports. Ford’s Sync 3 infotainment system is an available option for the SEL, and this comes standard with the Limited and SHO. This system comes with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and an 8-inch touch screen display. Additional technology that Ford makes available in the Taurus include an upgraded Sony stereo, HD radio, and navigation.
The Safety
You can stay safe during your commute with the available safety features. A rearview camera comes standard in all the models with automatic windshield wipers, and blind-spot monitoring added to the Limited and above. You can also get Ford’s Driver Assist package for the Limited which adds automatic parallel parking, adaptive cruise control, and forward-collision warning. It also comes with lane departure warning and the lane-keep intervention system.
The 2019 Ford Taurus will get you to work in style. It has the power, technology, and the safety to make even a long commute fun.
