How to Find Your Volvo C40's Color Code

Volvo paint codes can be anywhere in the engine compartment. They are typically on the radiator support, but may also be on the sheet metal on either side of the engine compartment, so finding them can be challenging. Typical color code format: 421. 421 corresponds to Dark Olive Pearl Clearcoat. Same color code, different name across models; for example, 421 could also be called Dark Green Clearcoat or Mystic Green Clearcoat.

The Color Breakdown

Volvo decided to give the C40 a wardrobe of 10 distinct colors, and they really leaned into the "Scandi-cool" aesthetic. We have the vibrant Fjord Blue Pearl and the earthy Saga Green Pearl for those who want to stand out at the charging station. But let's be honest-it wouldn't be a Volvo without a tribute to the overcast Swedish sky, featuring a moody trio of Thunder Grey, Vapour Grey, and Silver Dawn Metallic.

What to Watch For

The C40 uses modern, eco-friendly water-based paints that look fantastic but are famously "polite"-meaning they are a bit soft. This clear coat doesn't put up much of a fight against bird droppings or tree sap, which can etch the surface if left too long. You'll also want to keep a close eye on the sharp edges of the rear hatch and the front bumper corners; these spots are magnets for tiny chips from road debris.

To find your match, look for a 3-digit code on the center door pillar (the B-pillar). Open the passenger-side doors and look for a black-and-silver sticker near the latch; that little number is the key to your perfect driveway repair.

Driveway Repair Tip

If you are working with one of the "Effect" or "Pearl" colors like Onyx Black or Crystal White, those metallic flakes love to settle at the bottom of the bottle. Shake your touch-up pen or bottle for at least two full minutes-it should sound like a tiny maraca in your hand.

Because the Volvo clear coat is on the softer side, patience is your best tool. Don't try to fill a deep chip in one go. Apply a thin, whisper-light layer, let it dry for 20 minutes, and repeat until the paint is level with the rest of the car. If you rush it and create a "blob," it'll be more noticeable than the chip was!
