What is the difference between the 2010 Ford Taurus, and the 2011 Ford Taurus?

Samantha,

This is Seni with Ford. The '10 and '11 Taurus are both great vehicles. You will be very satisfied in whichever one you decide to purchase. However, I will encourage you to check out local incentives on the '11MY, as sometimes the incentives can take enough off the top to make the new car more reasonable. Below I have included the key changes between the two years. I do hope you find this information helpful.

Key changes made to the 2011 Taurus:

Performance/Handling

• SHO Performance Package now available with

Rapid Spec 402A

Comfort/Convenience

• Sirius upgrades

– Sirius Travel LinkTM and SYNC® Traffic, Directions and Information are now compatible

– Destination download through MapQuest® and Google maps

– Movie times and theater locator, stock information and horoscopes

• Voice-activated Navigation System now includes HD RadioTM capability

Design/Styling

• New exterior colors

– Bordeaux Reserve Red Metallic

– Kona Blue Metallic

– Sterling Gray Metallic

• Exterior colors deleted

Please email me with any questions you may have.

The 2011 model is one year newer than the 2010 model.

I rent both year models at my rental company and there is no difference. If you can get a good rate on the 2010 with low miles, take it.

Mechanically they are the same car. The only differences are the available interior/exterior color combinations.
