"This award is not centered on power and performance. It's about how a car reflects our personalities, lifestyles and self-image, and how well the automaker achieves that goal through the design and marketing of the vehicle," said Courtney Caldwell, ICOTY's creator and executive producer and editor-in-chief of Road & Travel Magazine.
With its athletic, upscale design, the 2010 Ford Taurus combines class-leading technologies with confident, engaging driving dynamics.
