Has anyone seen any pics of the new 2026 Lariat front grille? It has been supposedly changed to “Chrome Center Bar and Black Surround”. The 2025’s were exactly the same as the XLT’s - “Grey Painted Center Bar and Surround”.

The Chrome pkg added Chrome grille center with chrome surround. Just looking to see if anyone had a pic, as people can speculate endlessly.

Not too hard to imagine the surround in black. I actually think that will look very sharp.

Just found this black XLT in Asia. They have different models over there, but I think the new 2026 Lariat grille will look something like this.

2025 Ford Ranger Lariat
I imagine like in the chrome appearance package from the 2025

i think the chrome (And white) are the only packages that look good with the silver lower part.

I see a lot of trucks with chrome bumpers and I think that silver is like simulated wood paneling on station wagons.

personally not a fan of the chrome because of the reflections

Good thing for the 2026 Ranger changes, the Lariat Grille change says only “Chrome Centre Bar with Black Surround”, which is not like the pic you showed. If the 2026 changes are correct from ford, the only thing on the Lariat that is Chrome is the chrome center bar on the grille. In 2025, it was identical to the XLT.

I think this is the best looking grille I’ve seen on a Ranger, including the Raptor grille. Taking away the chrome surround really strikes the right balance. I want one.
