Ford suggests that the 2010 Taurus SHO’s EcoBoost technology will help that car achieve about 17 mpg city/24 mpg highway, or the same fuel economy as a regular all-wheel-drive Taurus with the base V-6. Company engineers explained to us how the SHO’s turbocharged engine was able to deliver power more efficiently than its competitors’ V-8s, and a quick check of EPA figures backs up that argument. Consider that the SHO packs more gusto under its hood than the Hyundai Genesis 4.6 and Pontiac G8 GT – V-8 powered sedans lacking all-wheel-drive – while burning less refined crude in the process.
