For the 60th consecutive year, DuPont has released its Automotive Color Popularity Report, and for the second year in a row, white is the color most preferred by vehicle buyers worldwide.
White is also the most popular here in the United States. White makes up nearly a quarter of the global vehicle market—about 23 percent, according to the report, followed closely by black, which makes up 21 percent of all vehicle colors.

But the real question is: What IS the best automotive paint color?
One presumes fleet vehicles are a major factor in white’s popularity. But we don’t know that for sure.
Here at OnAllCylinders, some of us prefer black.
Others prefer red.
What say you?
Black, green, and then gold.
White is the right color. Much cooler in the summer and it ironically shows dirt less than darker colors.
