JTL2017 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Are there any reports of a 2022 navigator refresh? I know someone who is in the market for a full-size SUV and was wondering if there is one coming relatively soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crzich Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 I just read through the 2021 order document someone posted and am shocked they didn't upgrade to sync 4. The new F150 is getting sync 4 and it comes out before the 2021 Navigator? I get that the F150 has much more volume but for a flagship SUV you'd think it'd have better tech than a truck. I absolutely love everything about the Navigator but feel the tech should have been upgraded, it's just hard to drop 90k on it after seeing what the Escalade or even 2021 F150 has.

F150 comes before Navi and Expy in the resource allocation process. I’m sure they’ll get it next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If past history is any indication, Expedition and Navigator should be due for a refresh/update for MY2022. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonj80 Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Revised Exterior/Interior, new electrical architecture, powertrain updates, Sync 4, Active Drive Assist were all coming for the 2022MY. Was a Q3 2021 launch but with the COVID shutdown timelines are all over the place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's true that's far enough out it might not have been effected much if at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry but the days of a V8 being available in the Navigator or Expedition are over. There's little need for a V8 in either with the technology and benefits of the newer 3.5L EB powertrain. The need for a V8 is different for the F-Series. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the sake of those of us who are not auto industry insiders, would you (or someone else in the know) explain, in layman’s terms, what “new electrical architecture” means with regard to a vehicle, please? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTL2017 Posted October 3, 2020 Author Share Posted October 3, 2020 Wouldn’t there be prototypes on the road soon if it remained 2022 MY? I have a feeling it was delayed for 2023 MY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling it was delayed for 2023 MY Either way I'd expect any exterior changes to be minor and most likely, primarily an update to the interior.
