On the front, he gets a new two-bar grille that recalls one of the options of the American Ranger grille. The Wildtrak variant also gets it, but like the outgoing model, it keeps the front grayed out. The Wildtrak and the new XLT Limited versions are also equipped with headlamps with LED daytime running lights.

On the sides, the variants with new strawberries receive new badges of wings. Less obvious are the updated fonts for the large "Ranger" sticker on the hatchback, and the "4×4" decals on the rear quarter of the four-wheel-drive models.
