2027 Ford Expedition Colors Guide (USA) – The 2027 Ford Expedition and Expedition Max share the same exterior paint palette, giving U.S. buyers a refreshed selection of bold and practical colors for this full-size family SUV. Ford introduced three new paints for the model year while refining the lineup to emphasize premium finishes, exclusivity on certain trims, and options that suit everyday driving as well as special-edition styling.
Both the standard-wheelbase Expedition and the longer Expedition Max (with extra cargo length) draw from the same color options. Availability depends on trim (Active, Tremor, Platinum, King Ranch, and their MAX counterparts), and some colors carry extra cost or package requirements. Details below reflect the most current information from Ford and dealer sources as of mid-2026; always confirm exact availability, pricing, and codes with a local Ford dealer when building or ordering.
New Exterior Colors for 2027
Ford added three standout paints to the 2027 Expedition lineup:
- Bronze Fire Metallic Tinted Clearcoat (also referenced as Bronze Fire Metallic Tri-Coat in some sources) — A deep, warm bronze that shifts toward copper or molten tones in sunlight and reads richer under overcast conditions. Available on Active, Tremor, Platinum (non-30th Anniversary), and King Ranch.
- Nocturnal Blue Metallic — A sophisticated deep navy with metallic flake that brightens in direct light. Offered on Active, Tremor, and Platinum (not King Ranch or with the 30th Anniversary package).
- Blue Ember Metallic — A dramatic, color-shifting dark blue that can appear near-black until light hits it, revealing rich metallic blue depth. This premium finish originated on the Mustang Dark Horse and is exclusive to the Platinum 30th Anniversary Appearance Package (available on both standard and MAX Platinum).
These additions replace discontinued options such as Space Silver Metallic and Stone Blue Metallic from prior years.

The complete retail exterior color lineup for the 2027 Expedition and Expedition Max includes:
- Agate Black Metallic — Classic deep black with fine metallic sparkle; available across all trims.
- Bronze Fire Metallic Tinted Clearcoat — New warm bronze (see above).
- Dark Matter Gray Metallic — Cool deep charcoal with blue undertones; practical and modern, available on most trims including Active, Tremor, Platinum, and King Ranch.
- Glacier Gray Metallic Tri-Coat — Bright, luminous silver-gray with premium tri-coat depth; excellent at hiding dust and road salt.
- Marsh Gray — Warm, earthy green-gray with rugged character; exclusive to the Tremor (standard and MAX).

- Star White Metallic Tri-Coat — Rich pearlescent white; highly popular, available on retail trims, and one of the options for the 30th Anniversary Package.

Oxford White remains available but is restricted to fleet orders for most retail buyers.
Premium or tri-coat finishes and certain colors may incur additional charges (often several hundred dollars). Exact pricing varies by configuration.

Choosing Colors for U.S. Buyers
Popular practical choices for American drivers include Glacier Gray Metallic Tri-Coat and Star White Metallic Tri-Coat, which hide road salt, dust, and water spots well in varied climates. Dark Matter Gray offers a low-maintenance premium look. Statement colors like Bronze Fire or the exclusive Blue Ember appeal to buyers seeking distinction, while Marsh Gray suits Tremor owners wanting a rugged off-road aesthetic.
Resale considerations often favor neutrals (black, white, gray) and unique special-edition paints like Blue Ember can add appeal in the used market. Always test colors in person under different lighting, as metallic and tri-coat finishes shift dramatically.
Interior Color Pairings
While the focus is exterior paints, interiors complement the exterior options. Common choices include Black Onyx, Ultra Dark Space Gray, Salt Crystal Gray (notably with the 30th Anniversary package), Space Gray, and specialty pairings such as Black Onyx/Electric Spice or Mesa (King Ranch). Availability is trim- and package-dependent.
The 2027 Expedition and Expedition Max color offerings give U.S. shoppers more personality and exclusivity than recent years, especially with the new Bronze Fire, Nocturnal Blue, and anniversary-only Blue Ember.
