And the SHO – how responsive is the EcoBoost engine?
There’s no denying that the reincarnated Taurus SHO is quick, and with a quick stab of the throttle you’d be hard pressed to notice anything resembling lag from the twin turbos. Power rolls on with ease and abundance. However, readily available oomph doesn’t always translate to a fun driving experience, a point proven by Ford’s newest four-door performance car. Where you might crave an aggressive engine rumble, you hear that coarse V-6, and while horsepower and torque ratings are impressive, the somewhat casual delivery makes the Taurus SHO more powerful cruiser than genuine sport sedan.
