2012 Ford Taurus SE Sedan 4D Standard Features
2012 Ford Taurus
KBB.com Review
Kbb.com Expert Rating
If you like your vehicles on the large side but you’re not into wagon-like CUVs or SUVs, the 2012 Ford Taurus will fit you like a glove. The car’s bold looks, high-tech interior and impressive performance are just icing on the cake.
The big, slab sides and narrow windows of the Taurus can create a slightly claustrophobic interior experience. Those looking for an all-out performance sedan may find the SHO’s AWD and twin-turbocharged V6 engine combination not as pure as the rear-drive V8-power setup found with the Dodge Charger.
