The Ford Taurus SHO, short for Super High Output, was the high-performance variant of the Ford Taurus. Planned as a limited-production model, it was built for the first three generations of the Taurus from the 1989 to the 1999 model years, went away for eleven years, and was revived for 2010 until the Taurus line ended in 2019. The first cars used a 220 horsepower Yamaha-built V6 that redlined at 7,000 rpm, with a sporty interior and a tachometer reading to 8,000 rpm; the 1996 redesign moved to a Yamaha and Cosworth 3.4 litre V8, and the 2010 car added all-wheel drive and the twin-turbocharged EcoBoost V6. Unlike standard Tauruses it had no Mercury Sable counterpart, and the later SHO became the basis of the Ford Police Interceptor Sedan.
