2021 Ford Bronco order banks just opened up this week, but unfortunately, it looks like only around a third of the 190,000 reservation holders will be able to get one. The rest will have to wait for a 2022 Ford Bronco, but that might not be such a bad thing. As we reported last week, the 2022 Bronco will get new roof options, exterior paint colors, vehicle options, and even special editions. And now, we know what one of those new exterior colors will be – green.
Ford North America Product Communications Manager Mike Levine confirmed this fact on Twitter recently in response to a conversation sparked by fans. What shade of green that might be, well, that remains a mystery. But Levine did confirm that it will not be the same green used on the Filson Wildland Fire Rig Bronco concept revealed later last year.
Green exterior will be widely available.

Yasss! Green for 22MY! But not Filson Wildland Fire Rig Green. Different shade. https://t.co/dDoprEphVo

Regardless, this is great news for Ford Bronco fans, who have clamored for a green color option since the sixth-gen model was revealed last summer. And it might just be enough to prompt some folks to delay their order to a 2022 model year Bronco, which might actually be the smart thing to do at this point.
In addition to the aforementioned goodies awaiting 2022 Ford Bronco buyers, they’ll also be able to order things like the Shadow Black-painted hardtop, which will be a late availability option, as well as Ford’s new seven-speed manual transmission with the Sasquatch Package which won’t be available until the 2022 model year. Additionally, as we reported earlier this week, there is a whole list of options and packages that will cause order delays for the 2021 Bronco.
We’ll have more on the Bronco very soon, so be sure and subscribe to Ford Authority for more Ford Bronco news and non-stop Ford news coverage.

What makes you think it will be a NEW shade of green instead of a pre-existing green color option? I personally hope that if this green option is meant to replace cyber orange, that it is another pop color like grabber lime metallic as seen on the gt500. Many want ford to reintroduce boxwood green, and that makes sense if it is replacing the dull flat area 51 blue-gray color. Keeping my fingers crossed for grabber lime tho.
FORD,
What about Wedgewood blue(baby blue) and white. That was a color in the 1 gen broncos. You build it I will take one.
A package with the green from the pics, plus some purple-pinkish accents, could be called Mintberry Crunch.
If we have to wait until 2020 will there be a price increase or will the price be held for us?

No matter the color green red silver Or blue 2020 or 2021.
Ford needs to keep their promise on delivery After making a deposit and to be told the vehicle needs to stay in service For 4000 miles after waiting for mouths To receive one.
