2008 Ford Taurus X

The 2008 Ford Taurus X is a brand new mid-size crossover sport utility vehicle featuring the same platform as the sedan-variant while making improvements to seating capacity and seating features as well as cosmetic upgrades and enhancements to the design.

The engine available on the 2008 Ford Taurus X is a 3.5L Duratec V-6 producing 263HP and 249FTLB of torque that is mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission on either a front-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive powertrain sitting on 113” wheel-base tires.
