Ultimate Black vs Velvet Black

Covering comparison · updated août 2026

Ultimate Black (#211F20) and Velvet Black (#222328) sit at almost the same lightness, so the difference between them is hue and finish rather than how dark they read. Ultimate Black comes in gloss; Velvet Black in matte. Body shape, paint condition and the light you shoot in move both colours further than a swatch chip suggests. Seeing them on your own car settles it, free, in a couple of minutes.

Ultimate Black vs Velvet Black: the differences.

The differences between Ultimate Black and Velvet Black are hue and finish rather than depth — the two sit at almost the same lightness. The second is the finish: Ultimate Black is offered in gloss, Velvet Black in matte. Low light, curved panels and your own trim decide the rest, and none of that shows up on a swatch. Render both on your car and compare them there.
