Ford Taurus Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2009–2012) — Sixth Generation
The sixth-generation Ford Taurus is a full-size sedan built for long-distance comfort, offering a roomy cabin, a large trunk and a driving character aimed at relaxed highway travel rather than sharp cornering.
Every Ford Taurus engine in this generation runs on gasoline, paired with an automatic transmission that shifts smoothly and keeps revs low when cruising. The drivetrain sends power to the front wheels, with all-wheel-drive versions offered for extra grip; expect effortless highway pulling rather than economy-car frugality.
