Ford Taurus EcoBoost
The new EcoBoost Taurus is only available as an SHO, a Super High Output version. The new 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V-6 EcoBoost engine sends 365-bhp and 350 ft-lb. of torque to all four wheels via a 6-speed automatic. Clearly, this car isn't only about fuel economy, as its EcoBoost name suggests. In general, the SHO is tuned for a sporting driving experience with revised suspension, electric-assist power steering, steering-wheel paddles and a transmission that rev-matches on downshifts. EcoBoost economy and SHO performance might seem at odds, but the goal was to provide V-8 performance with V-6 fuel economy. The mpg isn't known yet, but Ford expects an EPA highway mileage rating of 25 mpg.
At a starting price of $37,995 the new Taurus SHO will give the Pontiac G8 GXP and Dodge Charger a good fight and maybe even slap a BMW around a bit.
