2008 Ford Windstar van is the only minivan
to earn a quadruple five-star crash-test
rating four years in a row. This all-star
minivan has got power, room and all the
sophisticated features. The newest Windstar actually comes in five different models:
- Windstar
- LX
- SE
- SEL
- Windstar Limited
While each of these trim levels offers different amenities,
the basic three- pronged premise behind all of them is the
same – safety, excellence, and reliability. We offer tons
of information on all Windstar van models here in our Windstar
review, so stick around.
Every Windstar comes with the same engine, power train,
and transmission. As far as the Windstar engine, the minivan
boasts a 3.8- liter, SPI V-6 that produces 200 horsepower
at 4,900 rpm and delivers 240 pounds-per-foot of torque at
3,600 rpm.
