How Your Car Color Affects You
Color affects us in many ways more than we think, psychologically colors trigger how we
think and feel.
There has been a study showing that almost eighty percent of first impressions are based
on color alone.
In the past, there have been rumors that red cars are more expensive to insure because
they were thought to be driven faster.
Although today we now know that insurance companies do not care what color the
vehicle is.
Car Color and Its Meanings
Car color seems to have many different meanings and references towards them.
While some are known to stand out some are known to blend in.
Below are a number of colors with what most people think about them.
Yellow – More than likely it will attract the most attention, but may be so distracting it
can bother some people.
Silver/Gray – These cars can be noticed fairly easy during the day, but at night or during a
storm can be harder to see and tend to blend in with its surroundings.
Red – Loves to stand out and attract attention, but is typically known to be the
one speeding or being reckless.
Purple – has been known to show being adventurous and self-reliant, but is not a
very popular choice among men.
Orange - Combining yellow and red, orange stands out and also attract attention, but the
vibrant color can be a bit too much for others.
It is also one of the least popular car colors.
Green – are usually seen as being very connected with safety, but can be
bothersome to some people.
Some Drivers claim to have had no accidents when owning a green vehicle.
Blue – Known to be a very trusting and stable (usually in males) person, but some
blues can be seen as depressing or sad.
Black – People associate black with being stylish and having class, but they can be very
hard to see especially at night.
Does Car Colors Really Have Meaning
There are no scientific observations about car colors, but there just might be some
truth behind them.
Colors can affect the way people think
psychologically so maybe the different car colors
can affect the way someone drives.
Your driving habits might not change whether you drive a yellow or a blue car, but maybe there are some people that really get
affected by the colors.
