People are up in arms over this. It just looks like an S550 V2 to me. Meaning, if you liked the '15-'22 model, you should like this next gen as well.

It's also important to note that this is likely just a base model. Hopefully, the higher trim levels, such as GT, Shelby(?), etc., look more appealing than this. Though, to be fair, this doesn't look bad, at least not imo.

Is this next gen just a heavy updated version of the current car?

More or less. 5th gen S197 was a heavily revised version of 4th gen, hence why S197 had a solid rear axle until 2014 when everyone had moved to IRS.

The intro of S550 in 2015 saw a completely new platform and the intro of IRS. S550 was only supposed to run until 20/21. Covid and delays screwed that up. So instead of the new gen S650 being based on the CD6 platform (shared with the new Explorer), Ford opted to revise the current platform instead.

It looks like it got the Z treatment, aka new sheet metal over an existing chassis.

Nissan out here setting trends lol - I think the S550 (which itself is an old Aston Martin Platform) is a better option than a shared Explorer platform.
