    1. Agree 100%…You can have any color between black and white, and we’ll through in a red for the rebels….very sad! They’ve even got rid of the best color..( Brownstone Metallic ). They’ve even lost the Bronze Alloy Metallic from the 2015 Yukon lineup.

  2. Wow, perhaps the MOST boring selection of colors I’ve ever seen. The only decent color is the red, and they charge extra for it.

    1. Sable Metallic isn’t bad. I wish there was Blue Ray, Blue Topaz, Forest Green, Brownstone, Topaz Silver, Ashen Gray and Butte Red.

  3. GM we need new colors! Watch when you drive 95% of the cars/trucks are sliver and black. Give us green, blue, yellow, orange, lime green hell I don’t car, but I’m tired of see the same blah colors while driving down the road.

  4. Sooo, 3 dark colors, 4 light colors, and red?

    Plus, “Silver Sky Metallic” is more of a Baby Blue on the Equinoxes, looks like actual silver here…

  6. LMAO! Dumbass colours for a dumbass truck, designed by dumbasses, and green-lit by the biggest dumbass of them all.

    1. But they bring home the bread. I’m not defending, but I can understand why GM’s truck division is the most conservative of the company, possibly the industry. Rivaled only by Honda and Toyota, currently.

  8. I hope my grandpa will get a new Suburban! He has a 1998 that has been to hell and back. My uncle bought it brand new, then sold it to my dad and then my grandpa got it from us in 2004. . That’s extreme brand loyalty. I think my family has had 9 Chevrolet’s in the past decade or so. .

    In a world full of color, most people prefer black and white—at least when it comes to cars. “White especially has been a constant top runner since really 1998,” says Nancy Lockhart, DuPont color marketing manager. “Silver had its reign from 2001 to 2006 as being the leading color and now black has come up as being the leading color in certain segments, especially luxury.” But it’s not just electronics that have an impact on car colors. The use of browns and beiges in home decor is influencing automakers too, Lockhart says. These earthy tones rank as seventh on the list of most popular car colors this year. They account for 5 percent of the automotive market, both globally and in North America.

    Green is also having a resurgence lately, but still only accounts for 1 percent of the world automotive market and 2 percent in the United States. It ranks ninth in popularity. Still, white, silver, gray and black vehicles vastly outnumber cars of other colors, not just in the United States, but the world over. Collectively, they account for 76 percent of the automotive market. But that could change.

    “It’s a trend I think people are getting a little tired of, because we’ve had so many of these neutral colors on the road,” Lockhart says.

    At least they’re getting more interesting with advances in paint technology that allow manufacturers to use multiple layers to create shimmery silvers, three-dimensional blacks and pearly whites.

    “Typically, it takes anywhere from two to four years for a color to be developed and processed. So we really have to think far in advance in order to get these colors into the designers’ hands so they have time to be developed and made for production,” Lockhart says.

    “Twenty-two percent of cars and trucks built for the 2012 model year have white paint, making it the most popular color worldwide. Silver is close behind, at 20 percent, followed by black at 19 percent. Gray and red follow to round out the top five.

    The rankings are skewed somewhat by the large number of pickup trucks on the market. Trucks accounted for 55 percent of North American production in the first eight months of this year, according to Ward’s, which compiles automotive data. One in four pickups produced is white because business owners often use them as work trucks and paint logos on them.”

    1. Only because they don’t offer anything else. I wont buy it unless I can get a color.

  11. Per the articles I read the color experts feel that there will be more colors trending in the future so hopefully there will be more coming. One reason for the blandness is that we are in a recession and people by bland vehicles during down times.

    “White and other “safe” colors — silver, gray and black — also got more popular during the economic downturn, as buyers stopped leasing and bought vehicles they expected to hold on to for much longer, said Michelle Killen, GM’s lead color designer for exterior paints. They were leery of some of the more daring colors on the market, like the magenta available on the Ford Fiesta or the bright orange on the Scion iQ.

    “Buyers want to purchase a color they won’t grow tired of over an extended period of time,” Killen said.”

    “Harrington predicts customers will see more browns and oranges over the next two years, especially on luxury cars. Brown — which reminds people of leather or a rich cup of coffee — evokes luxury around the world. Earthy colors are also appealing to drivers concerned about the environment.

    As for the 2015 and 2016 model years, PPG is showing 64 future color options to automakers this week. Among those are Al Fresco, a silver metallic with a green tint; Glacier, an icy gray with a violet blue tone; and Elixir, a metallic mixture of silver and magenta.”

  12. Did you ever think white is most popular due to the commercial market? Take a look at utility companies around and the colors used, mostly everyone here uses white… just sayin it skews it bad…

  13. Hey GM, just offer the same color palette of the Colorado for the full size SUVs. Except the yellow, leave that one off or it would look like a school bus.
