Crafted by an obsessive engineering and design team, the Ford Taurus was created to compete with some of the world’s best. Borgman Ford in Grand Rapids, Michigan is the right place to get your hands on this amazing car, offering the best sales and service in West Michigan.
Inside and out, it’s defined by an array of class-exclusive and “first-ever” technologies, plus surprisingly brilliant driver-focused features that’ll change the way you travel. In fact, Edmunds.com called the available Ford SYNC® system “groundbreaking” and honored the Taurus as the first car to win their “Technology Breakthrough” award.
A car of this caliber isn’t often associated with impressive fuel economy. Yet Taurus is where high mileage and high performance thrive. A 3.5L Duratec® V6 engine delivers a liquid- smooth and highly efficient 263 hp. It’s mated with a 6-speed automatic transmission to put you in the right gear at the right time. If you prefer to rev it up, Taurus offers an available SelectShift Automatic transmission for manual shifts using racing-style paddles on the steering wheel.
Road dynamics are equally impressive, thanks to extensive hands-on testing. Countless hours in the lab and on the track allowed our engineering team to fine-tune the suspension calibrations on Taurus to perfect its ride and handling balance. “Each change was designed to wake you up and make you feel alive behind the wheel,” explains Cristina Rodriguez, Vehicle Dynamics Development Engineer on Taurus. And she should know. She’s not just a dedicated Ford engineer, she’s also a race car driver.
Beauty has its benefits, and every flowing line on this muscular physique has its purpose. Consider the crease that runs across the trunk lid of the Taurus. It’s one of the many details that designers carefully finessed to create the most aerodynamic, wind-slicing shape. The design helps contribute to enhancements in performance, interior quiet and fuel economy. Our philosophy: Every square inch counts.
