How to Find Your Mitsubishi i-MiEV's Color Code

Mitsubishi paint codes are on a tag in the firewall area of the car, not on an exterior panel. The color code sits at the bottom mid-left part of that tag. Codes include letters, dashes, and numbers. The code R71 corresponds to Passion Red Clearcoat. R71 may be called Passion Red Clearcoat on some models. R71 may be called Red Clearcoat or Speed Red Clearcoat on others. Model marketing names can vary even for the same code.

The Color Breakdown

The Mitsubishi i-MiEV might be small, but its color palette had some big personality. With only 4 colors officially recorded, Mitsubishi kept things exclusive. They really went for it with the Raspberry Pearl (which looks exactly like it sounds-a caffeinated berry) and the Ocean Blue Metallic. If you're rocking the Diamond White Pearl Tricoat, you've got a fancy three-stage finish on a car that fits in a grocery cart, while Cool Silver Metallic keeps things strictly business.

What to Watch For

Mitsubishi's paint on the i-MiEV is known for being a bit on the "diet" side-it's thin and can be quite soft. Keep a sharp eye on the door edges and the area around the trunk latch; these spots tend to chip if you even look at them too hard. You might also notice some early bubbling or "white dust" (oxidation) around the bolts and frame welds underneath if you live where they salt the roads. As for finding your paint code, don't go looking in the door jamb like most cars. Mitsubishi hid the information plate on the firewall (the metal wall behind the motor/engine area). It's a bit of a scavenger hunt, but it's there!

Driveway Repair Tip

If you're touching up the Diamond White Pearl or the Raspberry Pearl, remember that "Pearl" is just a fancy way of saying "I have tiny sparkles hidden inside me." These sparkles like to settle at the bottom of the bottle. Shake your touch-up pen or brush for a full two minutes-long after you think you're done-to wake up that metallic flake. When applying, think of it like nail polish: several whisper-thin layers are always better than one giant blob that looks like a grape stuck to your car.

Before you order Mitsubishi i-MiEV paint

Where do I find the paint code for Mitsubishi i-MiEV?

For the Mitsubishi i-MiEV, start with the make-specific code guidance: Mitsubishi paint codes are on a tag in the firewall area of the car, not on an exterior panel.

R71 may be called Passion Red Clearcoat on some models. R71 may be called Red Clearcoat or Speed Red Clearcoat on others. Model marketing names can vary even for the same code.

The paint code is safer than the color name. Similar names can appear on different years, models, or makes.

Use the paint code guide, check other label locations, or ask a dealer to look up the code by VIN before ordering.

Can trim, bumper, or finish differences affect Mitsubishi i-MiEV touch up paint?

What product should I choose for Mitsubishi i-MiEV repair?

For Mitsubishi i-MiEV repair, use a pen for tiny chips, a bottle for small chips or short scratches, a spray can for larger areas that can be masked, and PRO sizes for panel or spray-gun work. Choose a kit when the repair also needs primer, clearcoat, sanding, or polishing supplies.
