I can provide 2 updates that I've seen physically so far (as of 9/24/25) for MY26 there "are" at least two new colors one being called A..valanche on the sheet code and it's a grey with a very slight blue tint and the other doesn't have a name code on the sheets and can only be described as looking like thoroughly mixed eggnog.

The second major change I've seen in all trims from OBX to Raptor is a very different A Pillar system that adds substantial thickness all the way to the top mounting brackets and appears to have mounting blind holes for a grab handle of some sort.
The eggnog color may be Wimbledon white, and we saw the A pillar handle on the 60th anniversary edition. 👍

From what I gathered on the 60th Anniv. Edition thread was that the A pillar grab handle was going to apply across all trims. But the Wimbledon White would be exclusive to the 60th Anniv. Edition which is based on the OBX.

That tracks as there were maybe a dozen or so VINs and only one came though in that color so far.

The Costco fashion earth tones across the board are so boring for 2025 they need to bring back fun colors and get rid of the toxic interior off gassing stench....simple and cheap to execute to trans late into sales.

Oh good, it's been a year since we had a new bluish-grey color, we've been long overdue for a new one.

No, it's not remotely like that, it's a very light grey, in certain lighting it would look almost white but it came off behind some MY25 Oxford White bodies and there's a very clear difference.

I've heard that saying 'Less is More' but Fords new for '26 national campaign ad is going to be 'Less really means Less at Ford'
(except for the price) :crazy:

@JustinsCustoms is talkin' about this color.

It's basically Cactus Grey, but instead of a green tint to it, has a blue tint.

While I agree that the Bronco does not need another blue/gray color, this color would be the closest to the color of the Bronco in my profile. THAT Bronco was from when they announced the Bronco was coming back. Hasn't been a color close to that IMHO, unfortunately. I have never seen a name for that color either.

So get rid of the Azure Gray, do not bring back Area 51, give me this color or even better the color in my profile, and throw in a bright red, an orange, a yellow and a better looking green. Not everything needs to be metallic, or change with the angle of the sun. Stop overcomplicating things.

If it is coming I don't think that it's coming from MAP that is however only my educated theory based on the fact that there have been no build sheets so far that suggest an electric drivetrain, this doesn't exclude the possibility entirely especially if the frames are sent to another facility from MAP's ISS but I would say it's not likely IMHO Ford will go this direction unless there has already been significant investment (because of the loss of EV incentives in the BBB and tariffs)
