Rise and Fall of Ford Taurus


because it’s been around so long you’ve
probably either driven ridden in or
owned a Ford Taurus hi I’m Rebecca
Brayton and welcome to watchmojo.com and
today we’ll be learning more about the
past and future of this American car the
ford taurus is one of those iconic
american cars can you just kind of
outline the history of it for us
tourists when we launched back in 1985
in 1986 it was quite revolutionary in
terms of what was going on in that d
class segment with it sweeping lines and
its great looks quickly became the
best-selling car in the United States
over time you know more competition came
in and the car kind of lost a bit of its
luster up until the more recent past
where we came out we changed the name to
500 and then we changed it back to
Taurus again based on the heritage and
the authenticity of that brand but truly
the new car the 2010 is set to change
and revolutionize that D class segment
again in terms of the overall drive the
dynamics quality of the materials the
levels of technology that are in this
car you mentioned some of the features
that the new taurus is going to have can
you kind of go into specifics about each
of those the team went out and they
really made the car look aggressive and
muscular and in your face yet refined it
has a very high belt line so once you
actually sit down in the cart the
windows are quite high so you actually
feel coddled and you feel very safe and
very secure which builds upon how safe
the car is it’s America safest vehicle
right now and also things like stance
it’s a lot lower it’s a little bit wider
it has standard 18-inch wheels 19’s and
20s great power train with 263
horsepower and a 6-speed transmission
but it’s not just the outside the
outside will command your attention and
it’s what gets customers to come oh wow
what kind of car is that but then you
also have to tie the interior with the
extra quality of the materials things
like heated and cooled seats we have a
new multi contour seat which actually
provides heat and massage
voice-activated navigation systems with
an 8-inch screen sync technology
everything has been touched everything
has been changed I can just keep going
on and on thank you very much thank you
