When your are comparing the two colors you should have put them nose to nose at same angle so we can see the colors side by side with same lighting. Hard to compare the way you have them sitting.
Azure means blue. More specifically, light blue. The word is most commonly used to refer to the color of the sky, the waters of the Mediterranean, or a mood.
This was very helpful! I have my heart set on the Area 51 outer banks, but have a hold on the Azure color, unseen. I cant locate an Area 51 anywhere. The one i ordered is appearently still somewhere in Michigan. The dealer i am working with now said my bronco would be here a couple of weeks ago and nothing, no answers. It's helpful to at least SEE what color I might be getting some day. Thank you for this comparison. I can live with the Azure. But dang that Area 51 is it for me!
I originally ordered Cactus gray. My 2022 order took so long that my salesman called and told me I would get a 2023 and I could change the color. He said there was a "new" color --- Azure Gray. My bronco finally came in on July 3rd. My heart sunk when I saw it because when I originally ordered the ONLY color I was sure I didn't want was Area 51!!! I feel deceived - it's not really a new color! I bought the car but was so unhappy a week later I decided to sell it. Still waiting for the registration but as soon as I get it I will be selling the car. I am sooo disappointed because I waited almost 2 years! I should have stuck with my original color.
I ordered a 2024 Ranger in Azure Grey. It’s more blue than Area 51 . I’m a blue fan! Lol. Ford don’t offer Area 51 on 24’ Ranger. Put the chrome package on it. Neither of these colors look that good with all that black trim and wheels. But I don’t really like the black appearance on any color but the light gray’s and whites. I’m old school! 🛻👷🏼♂️👍🏼
Incorrect. Blue is azul in Spanish. Azure is an English word. It’s often used to describe the sky (which of course is a shade of blue). In the word Azure, the emphasis should be on the first syllable. But every Bronco video on RU-vid, they emphasize the second syllable, probably just unfamiliar with the word.
@@alexs3187 Nope. Here's the word origin, Originated from Middle English (denoting a blue dye): sourced from Old French asur, azur; then sourced from medieval Latin azzurum, azolum, and lastly sourced from Arabic al ‘the’ + lāzaward (from Persian lāžward ‘lapis lazuli’). So started in Arabic and/or Persian --> Medieval Latin --> Old French --> Middle English --> Modern English :) Spanish azul is sourced from medieval Latin's azolum. So they were close but no dice
@@Crossfirev well pretty much all English words have roots in other languages. I’m not disputing that, I’m simply saying Azure is fairly commonly used to describe sky blue in English. Whereas Azul would not. It’s mentioned in poems and songs.
