And here I was... thinking they might bring back some retro colors that people would actually give a shit about... glad to see @Ford Motor Company brought the same disappointment everyone was expecting.

So the Blue Oval company isn't offering a blue on the Bronco in 2022???

(And don't try and say "Area 51" is a blue...)

Velocity blue?

This is bullshit. I now have a very outside chance to get my rapid red bronco.

So orange is yellow, blue is black, and now red is orange????

Assholes

Ford says they listened to customers.........
The last I remember, we didn't just want "a" green, but satin or matte finish Olive Drab Green. What about satin or matte finish Desert Tan as well? If you say this is a dedicated off-roader, how about an industry first "bedliner clear coat? What about Sky or Robin Egg Blue? What about a "Burn Your Eyes Out Yellow" or "Blazing Orange" instead if 50 shades of gray? Ford is playing it way too safe with colors. The only plain colors that should be offered on a Bronco are white, black, and one shade of gray, preferably "Lead Foot Gray" like on the F150.

Rapid red stunk. Should’ve got red of velocity blue instead of lightning but the less blues the better

I don’t like the pepper red on the Maverick, but I’d like to see what it looks like on the Bronco

I like the green. I'm currently a late reservation oxford white. I think I'll switch to green when I reorder for MY22.

At reveal, AMB was my colour. Then I saw it in person and my heart sank. No way I’d be happy with something that dark. I’m in the minority but I think this green is beautiful. Rapid Red beautiful too but, to me, Hot Pepper Red is far more interesting.

Demanded by Enthusiasts And Inspired by its Heritage, Eruption Green Paint Option Set for 2022 Bronco; Hot Pepper Red Too | Ford Media Center

DEARBORN, Mich., Aug. 20, 2021 – Packed with the latest off-road technology, the Ford Bronco’s early years are the inspiration for new Bronco color choices for the 2022 model year.

Ford Bronco color and materials designers developed Eruption Green Metallic as a modern interpretation of Mallard Green, which was featured on first-generation Bronco models in the early- to mid-1970s.

“Automotive enthusiasts, and especially Bronco fans, are passionate about colors and will be excited about Eruption Green,” said Barb Whalen, Ford color and materials manager. “Paint has a wonderful way of evolving because of technology. Eruption Green is a contemporary color, but there’s a connection with Bronco heritage. It’s evergreen-inspired, with yellow highlights that really tie it into nature.”

The first-generation Bronco (1966-1977) is the featured vehicle at this year’s Woodward Dream Cruise. Bronco brand took the opportunity to debut the new Eruption Green color to the audience at the world’s largest one-day automotive event, as well as the new-for-2022 Hot Pepper Red Metallic Tinted Clearcoat.

Both Eruption Green and Hot Pepper Red Metallic will be available for every Bronco series in the lineup.

Antimatter Blue, Lightning Blue Metallic and Rapid Red Metallic Tinted Clearcoat will be available exterior color options until the end of the 2021 model year. Orders for 2022 Bronco two- and four-door, including with Eruption Green and Hot Pepper Red, will open later this year.

Yes! I’m in the minority but I agree with all of Ford’s decisions about MY22 colours.
