The Five Hundred lineup gets trimmed to just two models for 2007, now featuring only SEL and Limited trims. Side and side curtain air bags are now standard, while all front-wheel-drive models get a 6-speed automatic in place of last year’s continuously-variable transmission (CVT). New options include a Chrome Package and Sirius Satellite Radio, while heated seats and a navigation system are now offered on the SEL. For 2008, the Five Hundred will get a facelift and a new, yet familiar, name: Taurus.
