The 2010 Ford Taurus is named the Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. In 2009 the Taurus sedan received a top-notch protection rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and the 2010 next generation will maintain the same protection if not better.
The Taurus gets a top rating in frontal, rear and side tests. The car even has electronic stability control which helped rating as well. The federal government has yet to test the 2010 Ford and review the 2009 ratings but the Taurus has still gained five star results in front and side categories. The safety features in the new sedan are far from the expected airbag protection.
Standard in all 2010 models is SOS post-crash alert feature which unlocks all doors, turns on hazards, and sounds the horn in the event of a crash. Even the adaptive cruise control system has a collision warning system.
For parents that want to make sure their teen isn’t blasting the radio and recklessly speeding, there is an available MyKey entry system that limits top speed and radio volume. Another safely feature that’s included optional is Blind Spot Alert, Cross Traffic Alert, and rearview camera.
The next generation 2010 Ford Taurus is a fully revamped inside and out and leaves quite an impression. Not only is the safety impeccable but the Taurus will not disappoint in terms of performance either. The new sedan gets a 356 horsepower and can accelerate from zero to sixty in six seconds flat.
The Taurus is the top pick for those who want performance as well as a maintained top safety rating. The new 2010 Ford Taurus Sedan has an estimated price around $26,000. With SHO included, the price starts around $37,000.
