I found a bunch of photos online of the Mach-E in Rapid Red and the color really pops in the real world.

Overall I think the red looks the best (it's what I reserved). But I think I'd like it just a bit better if it were a slightly darker shade.

But it also varies a lot depending on the lighting. In some pictures it looks darker. The pictures above kinda remind me of nail polish. ?

Unless Ford does something strange, Rapid Red is already used on the 2020 Explorer. I visited my dealership to see it in person. I too would prefer a deeper red.

That's sort of what I ended up doing too -- looking at other Rapid Red vehicle pictures in sunlight to get a better idea of the shade...

agreed - I like a darker red too. I visited my dealer to see an escape in rapid red and it is a little lighter than I would prefer, but on the E it is still pretty sexy.

I can confirm that at least two Red Mach-E's out in public, one at the Montreal Auto Show and this one at Ford Headquarters:

No kidding! It looks much more vibrant in your photo.

That last picture (in the room with carpet) is a whole new shade I hadn't seen before. Amazing how that red changes shades so much based on lighting.

The color in europe is called “Lucid Red” i presume its the same as “Rapid Red” and it looks different because of the indoor lighting

i think its those colored focus lights. rapid red also looked like twister orange in one of the videos i watched earlier.

I noticed that the Mach e has red brake calipers!

I think that's only on FE, and maybe GT.

The red calipers was originally advertised as an FE-only item.

FE and GT... see the tech specs for model differences: https://www.ford.com/mach-e/2021/media-kit/

wow, amazing turnout. You would think it was a movie debut.
Cool they let you guys sit inside during this showing. So far, the MMEs being shown at US auto shows have been closed to the general public.
