What colour is this?

That is Charente Grey.

It is very similar to the preview L460 that our dealer had in their showroom:

It is Charente - It seems to be quite popular, but IMO it can look slightly "Mauve / Brown" in some lights, particularly when combined with the black pack.

I’ve liked the Santorini black before but I think the unique new design of the rear light mite get lost if it’s a black car

I agree, think it will look a bit too "pimped" with black paint and black lights - At least the Charente will break it up a bit.

This looks like Eiger Grey to me?

Anyone have an idea what this colour is? Hakuba Silver perhaps?

That's Hakuba Freddy - Elger looks quite nice

I definitely prefer it without privacy and black wheels - I saw this on a 7 seater variant at the preview at Solihull, it did look nice actually with clear glass, the 23" Style 1079 silver wheels, contrasting with the Perlino leather, so I can see why you went for that combo Ed.

I am a little surprised about the silver (although it was on my shortlist), not so much about the black.

I think silver may be popular because people see the car in gold in the photos and at the dealer events and think it looks good in a light colour but they don't want gold. So silver it the next obvious option. It shows off the contrasting gloss black detailing well and also has the benefit of the silver atlas front not standing out so much as it does on dark colours. Personally I think Eiger or Charente grey is a better alternative to silver as the Hakuba does not look to be a great shade of silver from the outdoor images I have seen so far. I just hope I get to see some cars in different colours on the road or a the dealer before I have to lock in my choice.

Completely with you 5.0......

Hakuba Silver was a colour I was going to switch too, until I saw an outdoor photo, then I thought it looked a bit dull, so was much less sure.

To be honest, I'm still completely undecided, at the moment, I have Batumi spec'd, but it's by no means certain and is likely to change.

Agreed - I am also unsure and keen to see more cars outside in natural light

I have specified Carpathian grey ,Perlino cream , the black birch floor board trim , the diamond turned wheels and privacy glass (needed when shooting and to keep the pup cool) but like others not sure about how the much darker grey will work with the lines of the car and the black lights at the back

Might go lighter grey or maybe silver - not easy with the colour palate released

I've gone for Charente Grey and picked silver wheels with no black pack or privacy glass. I quite like the brown hint, as it feels a bit different.

In terms of popular colours, my dealer told me that the majority of orders were for black or silver cars.

I’ve had Carpathian on two L405’s and in the right light it looks fantastic but most of the time it looks black.
