Ford Logo Change, Crypto Messages Hint New Vehicle; A Better Performing F-150 Raptor?

Ford's logo change and cryptic messages allegedly hint at a new vehicle. Recently, many individuals spotted the giant automaker changing its Instagram profile picture.

Instead of using its official logo, Ford changes its DP into a galloping horse. Now, the car developer posted a tweet, sharing some of its favorite emojis.

These icons include a circle, a chess piece (pawn), a hole, a square, the symbol of a spade, sunglasses, as well as an X mark. Aside from the emojis, Ford's May 31 tweet also included the date "6.1.22."

However, the automaker hasn't confirmed what these symbols are for. Now, here's what experts conclude.

Ford Logo Change, Crypto Messages Hint New Vehicle

According to CarScoops' latest report, Ford's Instagram logo change might suggest that there will be a new vehicle with more engine power.

Experts stated that it is unlikely that the logo change and cryptic messages are for the next-gen 2024 Mustang vehicle. This is because the automaker has already confirmed that this new car will arrive on April 2023.

Of course, Ford's Mustang Mach-E electric vehicles can also be involved. However, critics explained that if Ford releases a new vehicle with more horsepower, then EV is already out of the question.

Remember, there are already a pair of higher-performance variants of Mach-E available in the market.

F-150 Raptor R Might Be the Hinted Vehicle

If Mach-E and the 2024 Mustang are already out of the choices, that leaves the new F-150 Raptor R. As of writing, many drivers are not really satisfied with the performance offered by the mainstream Ford F-150 models.

But, this scenario is expected to change once the new F-150 Raptor R arrives. Rumors stated that this new car might borrow the 5.2-liter Predator V8 of the Mustang Shelby GT500.

If the automaker is hinting at a new powerful vehicle, there's a high chance that it's the F-150 Raptor R, especially after MotorTrend reported that some of the new vehicle's images were leaked.

Recently, around 400,000 Ford trucks were recalled because of a software bug.

On the other hand, Ford F-150 Lightning EVs were added by the United Rentals to its fleet.
