Infotainment Controls

Decked out with a touch-screen navigation system, our Limited AWD test car showcased the best of Taurus infotainment. Clearly-marked and large buttons on the steering wheel were secondary to those surrounding the navigation screen on the instrument panel. All were easy to understand and use. The tuning button should’ve mimicked the volume dial, but that’s a minor point. Without a tilt button, the screen washed out in direct sunlight and, interestingly, trip computer info was displayed in the gauge cluster using a button on the steering wheel. Many competitors incorporate this into the navigation/radio controls, but some drivers may appreciate this more direct access.
