Is a face lift for a vehicle a new generation for a vehicle?

I heard that in 1989 Ford Ranger received a facelift but was a new generation or just a minor update that did not change the complete model of the vehicle?

If a car model is structurally and mechanically re-engineered it's a new generation. If there are just minor cosmetic alterations to the body or interior it's still the same generation. Yea it would be the latest model in that particular year No. A face-lift is just a refreshing, the styling might be updated, but the mechanical bits are the same. An example of a facelift would be the 2003 WRX vs. The 2004 WRX. The car was mechanically the same, but the styling was mildly different
