The 2026 Ford Mustang adds two new colors to the lineup, including Orange Fury Metallic Tricoat and Adriatic Blue Metallic. Here’s everything you need to know about the latter, Adriatic Blue, a color that Ford Authority first spotted in May 2025.

Adriatic Blue Metallic is tagged with paint code B2, and is available on certain 2026 Ford Mustang configurations. It’s offered on the EcoBoost, EcoBoost Premium, GT, and GT Premium trims in conjunction with all interior colorways with one exception: it cannot be paired with the Carmine Red seats. Adriatic Blue is also available on the Mustang Dark Horse equipped with the High Package (600A equipment group), but cannot be added to Dark Horse models featuring the Deluxe Package (700A equipment group). The color is also able to be paired with the brand new FX Package, a retro-themed aesthetic package that is optional on the GT Premium trim.

All told, there are 10 colors offered on the 2026 Ford Mustang. They are as follows (paint codes in parentheses):

  • Grabber Blue Metallic (AE)
  • Shadow Black (G1)
  • Iconic Silver Metallic (JS)
  • Carbonized Gray Metallic (M7)
  • Vapor Blue Metallic (K1)
  • Molten Magenta Metallic Tinted Clearcoat (DT)
  • Race Red (PQ)
  • Oxford White (YZ)
  • Orange Fury Metallic Tri-Coat (NL) (new for 2026)
  • Adriatic Blue Metallic (B2) (new for 2026)

Meanwhile, the following represents all available interior colorways:

  • Black Onyx
  • Space Gray
  • Emberglo
  • Carmine Red
  • Black Onyx / Light Gray
  • Black Onyx / Space Gray
  • Black / Blue Accents
  • Black / Blue Dinamica Cloth

Pricing for Adriatic Blue Metallic has not been released at the time of this writing. However, it is likely that it will be offered as an extra-cost color.

Both of the new hues offered on the 2026 Ford Mustang come at the cost of two others that have been discontinued. In other words, Intense Lime Yellow Metallic and Wimbledon White are no longer available on any 2026 Mustang trim.

Inside the cabin, the 2026 Ford Mustang is getting a flash of color in the form of optional seatbelts. Those seatbelts will be offered in Orange, Prime Blue, Race Red, and Black with a red stripe, decorating the pony car’s interior like a sash. Note that Race Red and Black with red stripe are the only two seatbelt colors offered across the lineup; Orange and Prime Blue are only offered on EcoBoost and GT models, and are not available on the Dark Horse.
