Is a 2013 Ford Taurus a good car?

J.D. Power gave the 2013 Ford Taurus a reliability rating of 2.5 out of five. That’s below average for the automotive industry. Most cars in this class earn a reliability rating of three of higher.

What kind of engine does the 2013 Ford Taurus have?

The Taurus SHO, meanwhile, has last year’s turbocharged V-6 but visually is further differentiated from the base Taurus this year. (Ford markets both turbocharged engines with the EcoBoost name.) All-wheel drive is optional on the V-6 Taurus and standard on the SHO. Compare the trims here, or stack the 2013 Taurus against the 2012 here.

What kind of mpg does a Ford Taurus get?

The Hyundai Azera and 2014 Chevrolet Impala come close to the V-6 Taurus’ 19/29 mpg while the redesigned V-6 Toyota Avalon’s 21/31 mpg closes ranks with the four-cylinder Taurus. Unfortunately, Ford recommends premium fuel for both turbo engines. Regular fuel will suffice, but with slight power losses.

What kind of gas do you put in your new Taurus?

In my state the gasoline contains 10% ethanol. Still, the effective octane I buy is 87. It gets hot here in summer, but that’s in South America right now. Re: What type of gas do you put in your new Taurus?

Is the Ford Taurus SHO a good car?

For such a portly car, this Ford flies. In keeping with other full-size sedans, ride quality is very good. The Taurus SHO’s sport-tuned suspension picks up a little more chop over bumps, but on high-speed stretches it isolates the cabin as well as its comfort-tuned counterpart.
