2002 Ford Taurus
The 2002 Ford Taurus line up of vehicles has earned itself a solid reputation
that is not only a remarkable vehicle for families, but folks of every
age and occupation. It has simply proven itself to be a versatile solution
for everybody's transportation needs, and comes in a variety of body configurations
to suit lifestyle and personal tastes.
Available Models
The new 2002 line up of Taurus vehicles is extensive, offering
a wide array of choices. Sounding the challenge for their competitors
this year are the 2002 Ford Taurus LX Sedan, SE Sedan, SES Sedan, and
SEL Sedan. For those with greater cargo requirements, the sophisticated
2002 Ford Taurus SEL Wagon and SE Wagon are both sensible solutions.
Interior Features
The 2002 Ford Taurus boasts a long list of standard comforts
and conveniences, listing such available features as power adjustable
accelerator and brake pedals (standard on SEL models), a 60/40 split seat
to accommodate surplus cargo, and a rear-facing third seat in the wagon
model. The sedan is also available in five-passenger or convenient six-passenger
seating configurations.
The SE Standard and SE Wagon are equipped with an AM/FM stereo with CD
player for entertaining the troops as you cruise along. New for 2002,
the SE, SES, and SEL come with a handy cargo net.
Exterior Features
Also added to the package for 2002 are LED rear high mount
stop lamp and a wide range of new exterior paint colors. The rear liftgate
on the wagon models makes accessing cargo simple and efficient. Its modern,
flowing lines lend to an elegant and contemporary look and feel that won't
get outdated.
Performance
Under the hood, the 2002 Ford Taurus features an efficient
3.0-litre, six-cylinder engine. Two powertrains are available: a 3.0-litre
OHV Vulcan V6 that produces 155 horsepower and 185 lbs-ft of torque, and
a 3.0-litre DOHC, 24-valve Duratec V6 that cranks out 200 horsepower and
200 lbs-ft of torque. Both accelerate quickly and quietly, with the Vulcan
option running on E-85 ethanol, or regular unleaded gas.
 Safety
and Security
The 2002 Ford Taurus has received a five-star government crash
test rating for driver and right front passenger, and has received accolades
from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Each vehicle is equipped
with a driver depowered air bag, passenger depowered air bag, and electronic
crash severity sensor. The list continues with three-point seatbelts,
child safety locks in the rear seating area, and child seat tethers and
anchors.
Side impact air bags are available to you as an important option you
should seriously consider. And finally, to protect your vehicle and its
contents, every Taurus is fitted with the SecuriLock anti-theft system
that prevents the ignition from being started without the right key.
