Through the web, I found several news reports and blogs talking about the new Ford Taurus. It has impressive specifications which makes it quite pleasing. Though it doesn’t seem to be sporty like those Chevy trucks with a stunning Chevrolet pickup hood scoop, the vehicle is found to be very elegant in its own way. It is widely used by enthusiasts in daily driving. That is because they know that it provides and brings assurance of sending out comfort and safety - both to driver and passengers.
In accordance to this, Ford opted to make the 2008 Taurus available all throughout several major countries. In spite having outstanding sales in the U.S. alone for more than twenty years already, they have seen an even greater opportunity of making it available worldwide. The face lifted version of the Taurus would surely boost more sales for the ailing company. That is since Taurus has already proven its durability for many years.
At the end of the month, specifically on August 27, the 2008 Taurus model is expected to be launched in South Korea. There, this redesigned and re-engined Five Hundred model will be competing with several locally manufactured sedans. Some of which are the Kia’s Opirus that is also known as the Amanti (in U.S.), and Renault Samsung’s SM5 and SM7 sedans.
Same as in the U.S. version, the Taurus in Korea will be having 263 hp 2.6 L V6 and six-speed auto trans. For that, the model would definitely be competitive enough.
I could already see the outcome of Ford’s success with this plan. Koreans would surely love the vehicle, just as the aficionados in the States had.
