About the 2019 Ford Taurus

6th generation Taurus (2010-2019), final U.S. model year.

Ford pitched the Taurus as a traditional full-size sedan for drivers who wanted big-car space, V6 power, a large trunk, and confident highway manners without moving into an SUV. The brochure centers on a spacious interior, voice-controlled tech, and a trim ladder that runs from straightforward SE to comfort-focused Limited and the much quicker SHO. Its core appeal was easy long-distance comfort and all-weather confidence, with the SHO adding real straight-line punch for buyers who wanted more performance.

The SE is the straightforward full-size sedan, while the SEL adds everyday comforts such as dual-zone climate control, remote start, and rear parking sensors. The Limited emphasizes comfort with heated and cooled front seats, heated rear seats, and Sony audio, while the SHO pairs a 365-horsepower twin-turbo V6 with AWD and a sport-tuned suspension.
