WTF is the color Chameleon Mars (Giant Revolt)

What is this? I can't find any good 'real life' pictures of this bike. Anybody see this color in person?

Looks like it changes...similar to a chameleon. And it has colors associated with Mars.

It's darker than it looks in those pics. The TCR was available in that color, and I think some MTBs as well. Giant has great colors, but their studio pics don't always represent them well.

They did black forks on a couple of the 2021 models, I don't care for it. The Advanced 2 I ordered has a color matched fork.

I contacted the seller and asked him to explain that color. he says copper/brown metallic, which is consistent with others. My bike shop also said Root Beer.

Thanks for the pics that helps.

Those pics are so much lighter than what the actual color is (see pics below). I don't mind the lighter color but not a big fan of it darker.
