What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the Ford Taurus

Ford Taurus Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	With 28 to 30 mpg on the highway with a vacation load of luggage, food and other equipment she takes to the road with ease and comfort I never had in any car I previously owned. Mileage is close to the intermediate size Buick I used to drive but this car is much more comfortable and worth the mileage difference. see full Ford Taurus review

2011	4dr Sedan turbocharged 365hp 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	My average MPG is about 24 right now. It does better on the highway and not as well around town. I do not drive it hard. I am using (per Ford) Regular 87 in it and it seems fine. I ran one tank of 93 Premium and did not notice a difference in performance or mileage. see full Ford Taurus review
2008	4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed automatic FWD	It's got a 20 gallon tank and I basically never see 400 miles on the trip counter. 20mpg in mixed use (almost 40 mile round trip commute) has been something to get used to after living with a 4-cylinderMazda 6. In addition, when I hit 1/4 tank on the gas gauge, the range computer plummets to the point that I start planning a fuel stop within 50 miles of the 1/4 tank mark. I don't know if this is unique to my car or not. see full Ford Taurus review
2005	4dr Wagon 153-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	Only getting about 4-500 km per tank of gas see full Ford Taurus review
2002	4dr Wagon 200-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	22 or 23 MPG at best on the highway is mediocre but not terrible given the size and 24V V6. see full Ford Taurus review
