You won’t have to wait until next week to see the updated 2017 Ford Fusion in its full glory.

Caught on camera by spy photographers ahead of its official reveal at the 2016 Detroit Auto Show, the redesigned Ford Fusion was heading to the American automaker’s test track in Dearborn but got caught up at a stoplight, allowing the cameras to give us a good look at the updated sedan. Gone is the Aston Martin-inspired front grille, replaced by a new, angular-shaped piece. The headlights have also been changed, giving it a slightly more upscale appearance, thanks to some nice detailing inside.

The front bumper is also sportier and more aggressive compared to the outgoing model and features new LED fog lights, while the bottom grille gets a new mesh design.

In the rear, the tail lights get a minor redesign, but it appears that the majority of the 2017 Ford Fusion’s changes will be up front. We will get more details on whether Ford updated what lurks under the hood of the Fusion as well as interior changes when the car officially debuts next week in Detroit.
