It looks like the ford taurus and the toyota avalon will be one and the same vehicle in 2008. Toyota will stay with the standard set up of 2WD, ford will introduce the AWD taurus. Hope this helps. Reference:Master Mechanic 24 years. Google search.

The top rivals to the 2008 Toyota Avalon include the Lucerne, Taurus, and Azera, which are also large, primarily front-wheel-drive sedans that favor ride comfort over tight handling response.
Each of them also has decent straight-line acceleration.
The Taurus, which was recently called the Five Hundred, has a very nicely appointed interior and an especially spacious backseat, and its 3.5-liter V-6 and six-speed automatic are very responsive.
The Lucerne V-6 and the Azera both have 3.8-liter V-6 engines and aren’t as responsive as the Taurus, but the Lucerne is also available in Super trim, which adds a 292-horsepower, 4.6-liter V-8.
Next to either of these rivals, the Avalon is quieter and more refined inside.
Another alternative is the Chrysler 300, which comes in an economical rear-wheel-drive base model or with all-wheel drive in upscale Touring trim.
The 300 also has a powerful HEMI V-8 available.
But the 300 might not be as appealing to the crowd that favors ride comfort and space above all else; it’s less roomy inside and not nearly as refined and quiet.
