Ford Ruiji has actually been a good car that has been ignored by the Chinese market, whether it is the power configuration or driving experience is a cross-level existence, but even so, the sales of Ruiji have been tepid, if you want to investigate the reason, I personally think that because the appearance of the current Ruiji is indeed a little stingy, and its own positioning is not quite in line with, but the new Ford Ruiji is coming, and we have obtained a set of new Ruiji spy photos, and there are very obvious changes in appearance. It is reported that the new car is expected to be officially unveiled within this year.

From the spy photo point of view, the adjustment of the new sharp edge to the appearance design is not insignificant. First of all, in the front part, the new Sharp Edge has made a large adjustment to the shape of the intake grille, and has been transformed into a denser mesh structure, compared with the intake grille of the current model, the grid-like shape of the new Sharp Edge is obviously more advanced. In addition, the overall headlight group of the new Sharp Edge is also more flat, and the internal structure of the lamp cavity has also undergone certain changes, which is more exquisite. On the side of the body, since the sharp edge is only a redesigned model, the overall side lines and contours are consistent with the current model, and there is no obvious change. In the rear part of the car, the change of the current sharp edge is not large, the tail light shape is exactly the same as the current model, and the exhaust layout of the bilateral single below is also the same as that of the current sharp edge.
The size part, with reference to the current model, the new car should not change, the length, width and height are 4585/1882/1688mm, and the wheelbase is 2710mm.
In terms of interior design, there are currently no pictures related to the new Ruiji interior, but the author expects that the new Ruiji will adopt the same dual screen design as Ford Lingrui, which will be more technological than the current model, thus attracting some young consumers.

In terms of power, according to Ford's product matrix, the new Ruiji will most likely use the powertrain of the current 2.0T engine + 8AT gearbox in the future, with a maximum power of 182kW and a maximum torque of 393N·m. In addition, Ford will also provide plug-in hybrid models for new Ruiji in accordance with the convention.
At last:
The final shape of the new sharp appearance should be highly consistent with the previous renderings released overseas, and it will become more atmospheric, thereby expanding the product audience, so that sales recovery is just around the corner.
