Ford Motor Co.’s Lincoln brand, undergoing a $1 billion overhaul, will freshen its lineup with a new design director after quietly replacing Max Wolff.

Wolff, hired from General Motors Co. four years ago, remains at Lincoln, in charge of exterior design, Stephane Cesareo, a company spokesman, said yesterday. David Woodhouse, who joined Ford in 1999 from GM to head Ford’s former European luxury lines, is his successor.
