* Based on opinions and should be considered as general guidance only.

  • Reliability (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    While generally considered average, some model years have reported issues with transmission and electrical components. Regular maintenance is key.
  • Maintenance (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    Routine maintenance is on par with other vehicles in its class. However, some repairs, particularly for the transmission, can be more costly.
  • Technology (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    The SYNC infotainment system is functional but can be a bit clunky and slow to respond at times. Standard features are decent for the trim level.
  • Comfort (4)
    4 out of 5 stars
    Seats are generally comfortable for long drives, and the cabin is quiet. Road noise is well-managed, contributing to a relaxed driving experience.
  • Dynamics (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    The Taurus SEL offers a composed ride, but it's not particularly engaging to drive. Steering can feel a bit numb, and while the engine is adequate, it's not thrilling.

2016 Ford Taurus: A Comprehensive Overview

The 2016 Ford Taurus offered a compelling blend of American muscle, sophisticated technology, and a comfortable ride, positioning it as a strong contender in the full-size sedan segment. With a choice of potent powertrains and a focus on driver-centric features, the Taurus aimed to deliver a premium and engaging ownership experience.

Highlights

  • Engine Options: The 2016 Taurus provided two distinct engine choices, catering to different priorities:
    • 2.7L EcoBoost V6: This twin-turbocharged powerhouse delivered an impressive 365 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque, offering exhilarating acceleration and a sporty driving character. It was paired with a six-speed SelectShift automatic transmission.
    • 3.5L Ti-VCT V6: The standard engine for most trims, this naturally aspirated V6 produced 288 horsepower and 254 lb-ft of torque. It also came with the six-speed SelectShift automatic transmission and offered a balance of power and efficiency for everyday driving.
  • Safety Features: Ford equipped the 2016 Taurus with a comprehensive suite of advanced safety technologies designed to protect occupants:
    • Adaptive Cruise Control: This system automatically adjusts the vehicle's speed to maintain a pre-set distance from the car ahead, reducing driver fatigue on long journeys.
    • Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) with Cross-Traffic Alert: BLIS warns the driver of vehicles detected in their blind spots, while Cross-Traffic Alert alerts them to approaching traffic when backing out of a parking space.
    • Forward Collision Warning with Brake Support: This feature alerts the driver to an impending frontal collision and can even apply the brakes automatically if a collision is deemed imminent.
    • Lane-Keeping System: This technology helps keep the vehicle centered within its lane by providing gentle steering wheel input if it detects unintended lane departure.
    • Rear View Camera: Standard on all trims, this camera provides a clear view of the area behind the vehicle when in reverse, aiding in parking and maneuvering.
  • Trim Levels: The 2016 Taurus was available in a range of trims, each offering a distinct level of features and appointments:
    • SE: The entry-level trim provided a solid foundation of comfort and technology.
    • SEL: Stepping up, the SEL added more upscale features and convenience options.
    • Taurus: This mid-tier trim offered a more refined experience with additional amenities.
    • Limited: The Limited trim elevated the luxury quotient with premium materials and advanced features.
    • SHO: The performance-oriented SHO model boasted the potent 3.5L EcoBoost V6 engine, sport-tuned suspension, and unique styling cues, appealing to driving enthusiasts.
  • Other Notable Aspects:
    • Spacious Interior: The Taurus offered a roomy and comfortable cabin, especially for front-seat occupants, making it suitable for families and long road trips.
    • SYNC 3 Infotainment System: Higher trims featured the intuitive SYNC 3 system, which offered improved voice recognition, a responsive touchscreen, and smartphone integration capabilities.
    • All-Wheel Drive (AWD): Available on most trims, AWD enhanced traction and stability in various weather conditions.
    • Comfortable Ride: The Taurus was known for its smooth and composed ride, effectively absorbing road imperfections.

What to Expect

Ownership of a 2016 Ford Taurus generally translated to a comfortable and predictable experience. Maintenance would follow typical Ford schedules, with regular oil changes, tire rotations, and inspections being key. The availability of parts and qualified mechanics for Ford vehicles is widespread, contributing to ease of servicing. Insurance costs would likely fall within the average range for a full-size sedan, with variations depending on the specific trim level, engine choice, driver history, and coverage selections. The V6 engines, particularly the EcoBoost, might command slightly higher insurance premiums due to their performance capabilities.

Potential Considerations

While the 2016 Taurus offered many positives, buyers should be aware of a few potential drawbacks:

  • Fuel Economy: The V6 engines, especially the EcoBoost, were not class-leading in terms of fuel efficiency. Drivers prioritizing maximum MPG might find other sedans more appealing.
  • Rear Seat Space: While the front seats were generous, rear-seat legroom could feel a bit tight for taller adults compared to some competitors.
  • Trunk Space: Despite its full-size exterior, the Taurus's trunk offered a moderate amount of cargo space, which might be a consideration for those frequently hauling large items.
  • Rear Visibility: The car's styling, while attractive, contributed to a somewhat compromised rearward visibility, making the standard rearview camera and optional blind-spot monitoring particularly valuable.
  • Transmission Behavior: Some drivers reported the six-speed automatic transmission could occasionally feel a bit sluggish or hesitant in its shifts compared to newer, more advanced transmissions in the market.

Overall Summary

The 2016 Ford Taurus was a capable and compelling full-size sedan that delivered on its promise of powerful performance, advanced safety, and a comfortable ride. It appealed to buyers seeking a substantial American sedan with a focus on technology and a touch of sportiness, especially in its SHO guise. While not the most fuel-efficient or the roomiest in the back, its strengths in performance, safety features, and overall refinement made it a worthy choice for many.
