Ford Taurus
The Ford Taurus was a car produced by Ford Motor Company from 1986 through 2006.[1] In 2008 Ford sold a rebadged Ford Five Hundred as the Taurus.[2] They also renamed the Ford Freestyle crossover CUV as the “Taurus X”.[2] These cars were produced through the 2015 model year. For 2016 Ford showed a new luxury version of the Taurus. But this version was only sold in China.[3] Ford ended production of the Taurus shortly after due to falling sales and increased demand for crossover models and SUV's.
