Last month, the first spy photos of the substantially redesigned American SUV were published, revealing changes in its appearance.
The full-size Navigator SUV was first introduced in 1997. Like all subsequent generations, it was built on the basis of Ford's sister SUV, the Expedition. Today, the fourth generation of the model is on the assembly line, which premiered in April 2017. In the summer of 2021, the SUV received a restyling, and now, judging by the recently published photographs of prototypes, a more radical update is being prepared.

The test samples caught by spy photographers have a completely new front end, made in the style of the younger Nautilus crossover, presented last year. There is a vertical radiator grille of similar shape and horizontal headlights of a slightly simpler shape combined with LED running lights. Under the grille there is a chrome molding, and under it there is a wide air intake, strict in shape. From the side, the only differences that can be seen so far are the window sill molding that expands at the rear and slightly modified side mirrors. The rear part will be designed in the same Naulitus style: there will be lights stretched across the entire width of the rear part with an arched LED strip. Note that the photographs and renderings show the SUV in an extended version with the L prefix.

No significant technical changes are expected yet. The current fourth-generation Navigator is built on Ford's T3 platform, which is also used by the aforementioned Expedition and the latest generation of F-150 pickups. Under the hood of the SUV is a petrol twin-turbo 3.5L Ecoboost V6 with a power of 446 hp. (691 Nm of torque), a similar engine is installed on the F-150 Raptor pickup. A 10-speed automatic is used as a transmission; the drive can be rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive.

The premiere of the new product is expected during this year. By the way, along with it, the related Ford Expedition, renderings of which we made not so long ago, will also be noticeably updated.
Recall that the updated Lincoln Aviator crossover debuted earlier this year.
