In all cases, Ford Blue (Pantone 294) is our primary brand color and a distinctive brand asset that we will continue to invest in. Supporting our core Ford Blue are two new blues – Ford Twilight and Ford Grabber. Focus on Ford Blue. It should be most prominent. Ground with Ford Twilight to bring weight and depth. Complement with Ford Grabber; avoid using in excess.

Our brand’s voice is more than the words we use. It’s how we speak, the tone we take, and the feelings we create. While the brand tone will shift slightly at each dealership, some things won’t change: We always speak with authority, but we balance it with warmth. Our voice is personal and human—a trusted friend, not a distant expert.
The Everything Brand Voice is easygoing and smart. Not pretentious but in the know. Warm and friendly with a tiny dab of formality. Not driving the conversation, but not following either. Steady. It’s got a great vocabulary but never sounds stuffy. Easygoing competence.
