Over the past few months, Ford Authority has spotted several 2024 Ford F-150 pickups out and about, including a Lariat, Rattler, Tremor, and even a Raptor R. From what we’ve seen so far, it seems as if the forthcoming refreshed model will carry on with only minor exterior styling updates – particularly up front, where the grille and headlights look very similar to the current model. However, as Ford Authority previously reported, the 2024 Ford F-150 Raptor will feature some more notable differences in that particular area, and just yesterday, we spotted a prototype with an uncovered front grille, showing off those updates. Now, The Raptor Connection has spotted a 2024 Ford F-150 Raptor R wearing no camo whatsoever, giving us an even better look at its revised exterior styling.

This particular 2024 Ford F-150 Raptor R prototype features the same sort of updated front grille design as the previously-spotted 2024 F-150 Raptor prototype, which is completely different than the current model. While the existing F-150 Raptor has more of a “dot-like” design in the rear, this one features angled bars that provide a bit more visual interest. Additionally, the “Ford” script in the center has been revised as well, with more defined, smoother edges that are flanked by bars or brackets, which isn’t the case with the current model.
However, this is the first time we’ve gotten a look at the Raptor’s new front bumper and headlights. The center portion of the bumper is a bit more stylized than the current model in the center portion, while the headlights are different as well, with a boxy design in the center and signature lighting around the outside that’s “disconnected” versus the single, flowing piece on the current pickup. In the rear, not much has changed save for the taillights, which are seemingly ditching the “C-clamp” look for a completely different design.
There are a few other updates coming for the 2024 F-150 in general, including a possible multi-function tailgate, which is a feature that’s already available in various forms on the Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra, and Ram 1500. As Ford Authority previously reported, the refreshed pickup will also sport the aforementioned updated taillight design, along with new 22-inch wheels.
Inside the cabin, the 2024 Ford F-150 will seemingly be available with both vertical and horizontal infotainment screens, as we’ve seen in a pair of different prototypes over the last few months. Otherwise, Ford’s mission to reduce complexity in its future models will reportedly result in 2,400 fewer parts being used in the 2024 F-150 versus the current model, according to the automaker, which is a significant reduction by any measure.
We’ll have more on the 2024 Ford F-150 Raptor soon, so be sure and subscribe to Ford Authority for the latest Ford F-Series news, Ford F-150 news, Ford F-150 Raptor news, and ongoing Ford news coverage.
