What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 Ford Taurus

2011 Ford Taurus Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2011 4dr Sedan 263-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
Three adult room in the back seat - comfortably! see full Ford Taurus review
2010 4dr Sedan turbocharged 365hp 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
The front and rear seats are very comfortable. The back can be cramped with three passengers. The SL has heated front and rear seats which works great and are needed as the car heater is very slow to initially get warm. The heated steering wheel is also a nice touch. The seat fabric is soft but the light color might not wear well. see full Ford Taurus review

The front seats are horrible- similar to airline seats, and no amount of adjusting or adding cushions helped. I'm 6'2 and my wife is 5'3.and neither of us could get comfortable. After 2 weeks, it was actually painful to drive this car. see full Ford Taurus review

Not enough headroom for adults in the rear seat. Seat comfort is as poor as the front seats. see full Ford Taurus review
