2013 Ford Taurus Interior and Exterior :
Ford Taurus quality begins with design refinement. Building on the completely reinvigorated 2010 model, the new Taurus features a more muscular hood. Larger wheels and tires fill out the wheel well openings, giving Ford Taurus an athletic stance. Rear quarter panels have been raised, enabling larger, full LED taillamps. Without increasing overall dimensions or vehicle weight, the new Ford Taurus looks more streamlined, substantial and sporty.

Improved driving dynamics is a quality the driver will feel. Beyond the across the-board transition to EPAS, the hard mounted steering rack with a faster ratio, springs and dampers have been optimized to provide improved vehicle handling, combined with improved ride quality. The new Ford Taurus dynamics benefit from the addition of torque vectoring control. This feature uses a slight virtually imperceptible to the driver amount of braking force on the outside front wheel when accelerating through a corner. This minimal brake force provides an effect similar to a limited-slip differential. The result is a vehicle that feels smaller and more maneuverable, with more control when increasing speed through curves.

This innovative feature will please enthusiasts while serving as a confidence builder for less seasoned drivers. Torque vectoring control normally found in high ticket sports cars is a Taurus class exclusive feature. In addition, this feature is standard.

The new Taurus adds curve control, a unique Ford braking control innovation aimed at slowing the vehicle, if it senses that a driver inadvertently enters a curve too quickly. With application of four wheel smart braking, the vehicle can reduce speed by up to 10 mph in approximately one second. Entering curves or on and off ramps too quickly contributes to more than 50,000 crashes each year in the U.S. Curve control is a Ford Taurus class exclusive offering.

2013 Ford Taurus Interior Engine :
Standard on the 2013 Ford Taurus is a 3.5 liter V6 engine that makes 288 horsepower, which is 25 horsepower more than standard V6 engine in the 2012 model. Reviewers say that this engine is a good match for the Taurus. The engine is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission that gets mixed reviews. One test driver calls it smooth, but another reviewer says the transmission has trouble finding the right gear when the Taurus is rounding corners or traveling over hilly terrain. The EPA rates the Ford Taurus at 19/29 mpg city/highway with front-wheel drive and 18/26 mpg with all-wheel drive. These fuel economy ratings are slightly better than what the 2012 Taurus averages.

There’s also an optional turbocharged 2.0 liter inline four cylinder EcoBoost engine that makes 240 horsepower. Reviewers haven’t tested it yet, and the EPA hasn’t released fuel economy ratings, but Ford says that the Taurus gets 32 mpg on the highway with the turbo four. If you crave a lot more horsepower, consider the Taurus SHO, which is reviewed separately.
