"   CHICAGO\u2014Back in 1989, the first generation 220-hp Ford Taurus SHO (Super High Output) was an exceptionally quick and desirable sedan\u2014as was the 1992-to-1995 second-gen. But ever since the third-gen V8-powered SHO lost steam in 1999, those three little letters have been absent from the Ford product portfolio.   Well, now the SHO is back. And it&amp;#039;s coming at the same time as the standard-issue 2010 Taurus\u2014this spring. The Taurus SHO will be the first Ford-branded product to use the company&amp;#039;s new gasoline turbocharged direct-injection (GTDI) engine, the EcoBoost.   The SHO engine is a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 producing 365 hp at 5500 rpm and a stout 350 lb-ft of torque from 1500 up to 5000 rpm. That&amp;#039;s far more power and torque than any previous Taurus SHO.   Ford engineer Brett Hinds says that this V6 uses variable intake valve timing and premium stainless-steel turbocharger components, water cooling for the turbo bearings and electronic controls that will allow the engine to run at higher temperatures, up to 950 degrees F in the exhaust manifolds.   The Taurus SHO will come only one way, with a six-speed automatic transmission equipped with steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters, that can rev-match downshifts. The power and torque is then routed to a Haldex all-wheel-drive system also used in Volvo&amp;#039;s large sedans and crossovers. All SHO Tauruses will come with electric power steering, exclusive springs, bushings, shocks, stabilizer bars and 19-in. alloy wheels.   An optional 12S Track Pack will use upgraded suspension, brakes, electric power-steering settings and 20-in. alloy wheels shod with special Goodyear Eagle F1 high-performance tires. In the 12S package, the final drive ratio will go down from the standard 2.77:1 to 3.16:1 for better acceleration performance.   The exterior of the SHO version is very understated. You&amp;#039;ll have to look hard to notice the changes\u2014 a nickel-finish grille pattern, tiny SHO badges and a small decklid spoiler.   Inside, the SHO has a unique suede interior with sport seats, real aluminum accents and a perforated-leather steering wheel covering. According to Ford, the Taurus SHO will retail for $37,995 and will return at least 25 mpg highway. \u2014Jim McCraw   RELATED STORIES \u2022 PLUS: 2010 Ford Taurus Has V6 Power and Better Mileage  \u2022 EARLIER: &amp;#039;86 Taurus is one of the Most Underappreciated American Cars  \u2022 2009 CHICAGO AUTO SHOW: Check Out PM&amp;#039;s Live Coverage Here!   2010 Ford Taurus SHO 2010 Ford Taurus SHO 2010 Ford Taurus SHO 2010 Ford Taurus SHO 2010 Ford Taurus SHO 2010 Ford Taurus SHO 2010 Ford Taurus SHO 2010 Ford Taurus SHO "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
