Year to Year Changes
1997 Ford Taurus:
Only a handful of changes marked the '97 models. Mainly, a Mach Audio System replaced the former JBL setup as an option.
1998 Ford Taurus:
G and GL editions were gone, and an SE sedan and wagon arrived for '98, as Taurus gained a more assertive front end. The more powerful V6 engine was now optional on the LX and SE.
1999 Ford Taurus:
All models got revised instrument cluster graphics and front bucket seats were standard on LX and SE (a front bench remained a no-charge option). Sluggish sales prompted Ford to reskin the Taurus for 2000, with a more conventional shape.
