The 2010 automobile is a large and very comfortable family car with a modern design. The average model has front-wheel drive and the 2010 vehicle engine is 3.5-liter V6 which cranks out 263 hp. However, there is an option to have all wheel drive on most models and some models, such as the high performance SHO model, have this on the base level as well. The 2010 automobile engine for the SHO model has a 3.5-liter V6 which gives a good 365 hp.
The latest model of the Taurus comes in SE, SEL, Limited and SHO trims. The basic kit includes alloy wheels, power accessories, a tilt and telescope steering column, six-speaker stereo and a power driver seat. The 2010 Ford Taurus X engine on the SHO model is twin0supercharged with a sport-tuned suspension as special upholstery.
A performance, black mesh grille exclusive to the SHO model, and high-powered headlamps give a sporty front edge to the new SHO. Rocking unique, 19", premium all-season tires give the SHO a more sporty but muscular attitude to the car. Ford also replaced the taillights with new LED lights and kept the two chrome exhaust tips on the back side. On the interior, Ford reworked the cabin layout to provide a brand new center stack, steering wheel and instrument panel display.
Under the hood, the 2013 Ford SHO is powered by the fuel-efficient, 3.5L, twin turbo, Ecoboost V6 engine expected to unleash an estimated 365 horsepower and equipped with the all-wheel drive system. Ford enhanced the SHO's Electric Power Assisted Steering system (EPAS), responsible for driver control, response and cornering on the road. The new optimized EPAS system helped to boost the efficiency for the 2013 SHO on the highway to 25 mpg and added the new active park assist technology that allows the car to park itself.
The ultimate technology improvement with the 2013 Taurus SHO is the addition of SYNC® with My Ford Touch™. Knobs and gauges have been taken out and replaced with beautiful, rich LCD screens and steering wheel control buttons to toggle through the My Ford Touch™ system. The system connects with cell phones, mp3 players, USB drives and other media devices. Drivers have the access to perform 10,000 commands at their fingertips on the steering wheel or with a simple voice command. The SYNC® with My Ford Touch™ technology aims to keep driver's eyes on the road and safety as the main priority. Unique features of the system include integrated hands free cell phone use, customizable instrument display views for individual driver preferences, the ability to plug a smart phone in and create a router for laptops to surf the net while driving, and a turn-by-turn navigation system.
