How to Find Your Chevrolet Volt's Color Code

Chevrolet did not make it easy to find the color code. Over the years they used many different locations and did not standardize the color plate, so it can be hard to locate. Usually it is in the glove box or the spare tire well; otherwise, the search may extend everywhere. The typical code is 51/WA316N, usually preceded by BC/CC. Two tone codes can appear as BC/CC U316N or BC/CC L316N (U for Upper, L for Lower).

The Color Breakdown

Chevrolet definitely didn't play it safe with the Volt. With 89 colors on record, they leaned hard into the "high-tech" vibe, giving us everything from the sleek Cyber Gray Metallic to names that sound like they were written by a dad-joke champion. We're talking about Black Meet Kettle Pearl, You Drive Me Grazy Pearl, and Old Blue Eyes Metallic. Whether you're driving a Limited Addiction Pearl or the classic Abalone White Tricoat, Chevrolet really went for it, proving that "electric" doesn't have to mean "boring."

What to Watch For

Finding your paint code on a Volt is a bit like a scavenger hunt. On earlier models (Gen 1), you'll want to check the glove box or peek inside the small storage cubby on the right side of the trunk; the sticker is often tucked away in there. For the 2018 and 2019 models, look for a QR code on the driver's side door pillar.

As for the paint itself, keep a close eye on your roof rails and rain gutters. There have been reports of the paint-especially the whites-deciding to "retire early" and peel in those tight curves. The aerodynamic hood is also a bit of a rock magnet, so expect a few "beauty marks" from highway debris. Don't worry, though; it's nothing a steady hand can't handle.

Driveway Repair Tip

Because so many Volt colors are pearls or "Tricoats" (like White Diamond or Iridescent Pearl), they require a little extra patience. These paints have tiny mica flakes that like to settle at the bottom of the bottle. **Shake your touch-up bottle for a full two minutes**-not just a few seconds-to wake up those sparkles.

When applying, think "paper-thin layers." Instead of trying to fill a chip with one big glob, dab a tiny bit of paint into the center and let it flow to the edges. If you're working on a Tricoat, remember that the "Mid-coat" is where the magic happens; apply it sparingly until the shimmer matches the rest of the car. It's not about speed; it's about the soul you put into the sparkle.
