About the 2012 Ford Taurus
For a rental car, the 2012 Ford Taurus is one of many cars on CarmaCars, each with its own page. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.
What the figures tell you
Power comes from the 3.5L 6-cylinder, driving through a 6-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
The combined figure, 11.1 L/100 km, means roughly 33 litres for 300 km. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $172.10.
How big it is
Being a large sedan, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. Its 566 litre trunk is enough for bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size.
