What, one might ask, is the point of automotive (auto) majors offering a full palette of paint colours when the vast majority of car buyers simply choose white? While white is a colour, how did the nation’s colour selections get to be so bland?

In fact, they constituted more than two-fifths of total passenger vehicle (PV) sales last year.
