Once the icon of the North American auto industry, the Taurus is now trying to regain lost ground. With front-wheel or all-wheel drive models available, this large American sedan can carry up to five hefty adults. The powerful Taurus SHO is motored by a turbo that delivers 365 horsepower. The Taurus’ only gearbox is a six-speed automatic. It is one of the best handling large car on the market and a boot to drive.
