A mini-site for the 2010 Taurus was launched and it includes images of the new sedan from Ford in all available colors. Don`t forget to visit the Gallery page and see all these nice images with the Taurus model.
“The next five years will be a very important transition technically for the [police] pursuit business and limo livery,” says Farley. “These days you really can’t afford to walk away from a loyal customer base who loves your product.” Ford is trying to save their business with Police cars, a segment which measures about 65,000 annual units sold.
Their new solution most likely will be a front wheel drive unibody with all whell drive capability. This model is under review and most likely we`ll have to wait 1-2 years until we`ll see a final version of it.

In 2010 we`ll see in Ford Cars a new clutch – PowerShift which is similar with the DSG from Volkswagens. This clutch allows full automatic control or clutch-less manual shifting. It is already available in the current Focus 2.0L diesel engine but it`s a wet clutch system. The one available in 2010 will be a dry-clutch system which is lighter and more efficient.The 6-speed PowerShift weighs with 30 lbs less than the 4-speed automatic currently offered in the U.S. Focus and should deliver up to 9-percent better fuel economy. We`ll keep an eye on future announces regarding this clutch which we find very good.
38 Years have passed from the day the first RS rolled out the assembly line and now, in Germany the new Ford Focus RS rolled out and made us very happy. The best Focus ever and the fastest one will be available shortly – 300hps, 440 N/m, a top speed of 263 KM/h and 5.9sec from 0 to 100 km/h makes it the faster Focus ever. We can hardly wait for a test drive.
