Why it stands out

The 2015 Ford Taurus stands out as a roomy full-size sedan that still offered a broad range of personalities late in its run. By this point, Ford had already given the Taurus a bold three-bar grille and a last major redesign for the 2010 model year, and the car’s sixth-generation shape was intended to compete with large sedans such as the Chrysler 300, the Dodge Charger, the Hyundai Azera, and the Toyota Avalon. For buyers who wanted a practical family car with some presence, that combination of size and mainstream appeal was a major part of the Taurus’s identity.

What makes the 2015 model especially distinctive is the mix of powertrains and equipment available in the sixth generation. The standard 3.5-liter V6 was rated at 288 horsepower for the 2013 model year, while the available 2.0-liter turbocharged EcoBoost four-cylinder, added for the 2014 model year, delivered the best fuel economy of any Taurus at the time, with EPA ratings of 22 mpg city, 31 mpg highway, and 25 mpg combined. The Taurus SHO remained the performance standout, using a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 with 365 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque, and it was described as the most powerful and quickest Taurus SHO in the model’s history. The 2013 refresh also brought a new grille and front fascia, an updated suspension, the latest version of Ford’s Sync and MyFordTouch infotainment software, and improved front seats, while the Limited trim could be equipped with features such as blind-spot warning with cross traffic alert, adaptive cruise control, and collision warning with brake support.

At the same time, the Taurus had clear drawbacks by this stage. The buying guide describes late-model Taurus examples as pretty boring cars, and the model was outclassed by full-size sedan competitors by the time it exited the American market in 2019. Still, for shoppers who wanted a spacious, reliable car with available all-wheel drive, strong V6 power, and a performance-oriented SHO version, the 2015 Ford Taurus offered a distinctive blend of comfort, capability, and value.
