In a distant second is Meteor Grey (12.6%) and coming in at 4<sup>th<\/sup> and 5<sup>th<\/sup> place are Absolute Black (9.7%) and Aluminium Metallic (7.6%), respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">White is also the most popular color for Everest with Snow Flake White (20.2%) and Arctic White (14.2%) making up 34% of the sales mix across Ford IMG.
