The 2026 Ford Taurus Comes With a Surprise: It Finally Has Hybrid Power

SAUDI ARABIA: The Ford Middle East has recently revealed the 2026 Ford Taurus, which has been heavily upgraded. The best new feature of the Ford Taurus is the hybrid powertrain option. The car has been widely popular in the KSA as a taxi option thanks to its large dimensions, comfortable interiors, and overall quality. Ford's performance and reliability also played a big part in the popularisation of the car. Now with the new upgrades, the Ford Taurus is more lucrative than ever before.

What’s New With The 2026 Ford Taurus?

The 2026 Ford Taurus has received quite a few upgrades, starting with a newly designed front fascia. The car has new headlamp graphics, and the design in fact resembles that of the Ford Evos concept model. There are new colour options for the car, and the cabin gets a material upgrade with better upholstery options and a new central console that is powered by Ford’s latest SYNC 4A system.

The car is powered by a 2.0-litre EcoBoost engine for the ICE models and a 1.5-litre engine for the hybrid models. The Toyota Camry was the default choice for hybrid cars in this range, but the 1.5-litre option now makes the Ford Taurus a worthy competitor that will cause a dent in the Camry sales. The Ford Taurus is built for “urban driving and long-distance cruising.” This directly translates to better fuel efficiency for the car, which is a big requirement for the car’s commercial use case.
