Key Features
Taurus owners know what they like inside a vehicle — a comfortable, quiet ride, well-thought-out storage and easy-to-use
controls. So that’s what Taurus gives them. It has what it takes to make everyday travel an indulgence.
Spacious Cargo Volume — Taurus offers
16.9 cubic feet of trunk space — room
for four sets of golf clubs. The wide trunk
opening makes getting large items into
the trunk easier. Cargo/grocery bag
hooks help prevent cargo from sliding
and spilling during transit. Taurus has a
very low (29.7-inch) liftover height. This
means that items to be loaded only need
to be lifted just over two feet off the
ground
Remote Keyless Entry System — key fob
locks or unlocks doors and activates
interior lights from up to 33 feet away for
security and convenience
Electrochromic Rearview Mirror — dims
automatically, reducing headlamp glare
from rear approaching vehicles at night

included in the SEL Premium Package —
can be programmed to store up to three
separate codes for use with home, office
and other automatic garage and gate-
opening devices
Compass and exterior temperature
display — provides compass reading
of vehicle direction and ambient
temperature outside of vehicle
Front and Rear Floor Mats — help protect
the carpeting from dirt and the elements
Heated Exterior Rearview Mirrors —

sideview mirrors

noise, vibration and harshness (NVH)
advances help provide a quiet ride
