1992 Ford Taurus

The 1992 Ford Taurus is a mid-size sedan recognized for its aerodynamic design, signaling a shift away from the boxy styles prevalent in the 1980s. It offers two primary engine options: a 3.0L V6 producing 140 horsepower at 4,800 RPM with 160 lb-ft of torque, and a more robust 3.8L V6 that also delivers 140 horsepower but offers 215 lb-ft of torque. The sportier SHO model features a 3.0L V6 engine with an output of 220 horsepower at 6,200 RPM and 200 lb-ft of torque. Most models are equipped with a 4-speed automatic transmission, while the SHO can come with a manual transmission. As standard, all models feature front-wheel drive (FWD). The Taurus provides a fuel efficiency ranging from 16-18 MPG in the city and 26 MPG on the highway, with various interior features such as an AM/FM stereo, cruise control, and optional leather seats. The vehicle has a length of 192 inches and a wheelbase of 106 inches, with a curb weight spanning from 2,765 to 3,111 pounds depending on the trim. The SHO variant is particularly notable for its enhanced performance capabilities.
