We usually laud the simple and straight-forward approach of climate control dials – one for fan speed, one for temperature, and one for mode. Ford has taken a different approach, placing in the Taurus a setup we’ve seen in other Blue Oval vehicles, one that works in terms of functionality and style. The dual-zone system includes red buttons for increasing temps and blue for lowering, recognizable two-setting heated seat buttons, and an assortment of others that control fan speed, mode, and more. It may require a few extra seconds to learn versus the three-dial design, but otherwise should garner few complaints from users.
