Ferrari Red vs Lava Orange

Paint comparison · updated Jul 2026

Ferrari Red (#F70D1A) reads darker than Lava Orange (#E65C00), so it holds shadow in the body lines where Lava Orange lifts them. Both render in gloss, satin or matte, so the finish is a separate decision from the colour and you can try either one in all three. Body shape, paint condition and the light you shoot in move both of them further than the swatch chips suggest, so the only honest comparison is the two rendered on the same car.
