Here are few pics from our forum members. My all other cars are silver or Titanium and we love it. However color preferences are really subjective, check out in person and decide.

Totally agree. Having said that though, I was between Bright Silver and Osmium Grey for my R-Design. Liked
the way the black accents looked on a silver backdrop, but I personally felt that Bright Silver lacked depth and just looked washed out. My opinion would be to wait or go for the R-Design.

 

They should bring back electric silver.

 

100% Volvo's best Silver to this day. Click on the link in my sig for the XC60 to see the awesome Blue flake in action!

I wish they would but I guess Volvo doesn't like good colors anymore.

 

Ooooh, that's my car! I live in Phoenix, so I did not want a dark color and figure this helps to keep it a bit cooler in the summer.

I also came from an XC60 that was Passion Red, I really do miss that color, but this works out OK.

For the most part cars today have such a limited range of colors anyway.

 

Had a 2019 XC90 T6 R Design in Passion Red ... loved the color, but was surrendered a few months back as a lemon.
Decided to down size with an XC60, but spring time car hunting during pandemic proved a bit tough and the colors I wanted were all out of state (did not want to get involved with out of state purchase vs local registration, taxes/fees, etc with DMV on limited hours). Test drove a 2020 XC60 T8 R-Design in Bright Silver Metallic locally and it surprisingly made an impression on me (not just for the driving experience, but color as well).
Included some very basic, "in the wild" photos taken prior to soot and ash raining down upon us daily on the west coast. Have blacked out rear emblems and exhaust tips. Will be doing same to silver plastic trim around front grille and powder coating wheels in black as well. Think it will play off BSM nicely once project is complete.

Honestly, I really do miss the red ... silver turned out to be a surprisingly fun decision.

 

That looks great with the black trim and load bar rails and mirrors. The front grill almost looks lost on your XC60. I’d “fix” that too.

 

These pics are super helpful! Thanks all! Hopefully I'll love it when I see it in person!

 

woah. I never thought I'd say this but R-Design in silver looks great.

 

PML's pictures having me reconsidering my opinion as well. Sure wish Volvo made all the trim black (including lettering and rear bumper cover). Sad that they left out the grille for MY2020. I was disappointed when I saw MY2021 and wished I waited a few months to get mine.

 

I'm not a silver fan. I agree its a boring color. In fact, I find a lot of the Volvo colors to be dull. I dislike most shades of gray as well.

Bursting blue is definitely my favorite XC60 color. I could also live with Pine gray (which I have), Denim blue, and MAYBE Fusion Red.

 

Talked to the husband, showed him the pics. He's also not a fan of the silver, but I couldn't sell him on the Bursting Blue! So now the front runner is an Ice White R Design. I'll keep pushing for the blue though Thanks again for the pics!

 

White 2020+ R looks dope.

 

I think the bursting blue is gorgeous but that's me.

 

I had an XC90 Inscription in bright silver. It’s was beautiful. Easy color to maintain as well.

 

I really liked the Electric Silver as far as silvers go ... that went out the window when they made it Bright Silver for the XC60 as well. I don't love the Volvo color choices in general and we ended up with the metallic white (blanking on the name now) and I do think it looks nice, but it was kind of a default choice.

 

Test drive was awesome! I have a major crush on this car. We drove an Inscription Expression (this is so confusing..why not just keep Momentum name?) because it had the Advanced Package, and also an R Design that didn't have Advanced, but did have Polestar and 21" wheels. I was a little worried if the 21" wheels would feel rough on the road, but they didn't bother me at all. But I'm also coming from a 2008 VW Rabbit where I can feel every little pebble, so anything will be an improvement I imagine. A dealer nearby has a Crystal White R Design with all the packages we want, plus Polestar and 21" wheels. Don't necessarily need those but if the price is right we'll probably just go for it. There's nothing coming down the pipe that we're interested in for our dealer and we'd prefer to avoid a special order if possible. Taking the weekend to think about it, but feeling good about it right now!

 

My first choice for my V90 had been Silver, but the car was damaged. I ended up with a Crystal White V90 and it looks sharp. Either color would be a good choice as long as you like it.

 

Another fan of Electric Silver here. I've had silver cars for many years, simply because they're highly visible and don't show the dirt very much. But this is certainly the best looking one.

 

We pulled the trigger on the Crystal White R-Design today! Will post pics after it's delivered on Monday. We declined all of the protection plans offered by the financing guy. But looking at the forums. it seems we may want to look into at least tire/wheel coverage and possibly windshield coverage. Looks like people here tend to buy from Steingold. Thoughts on these plans? We are doing a 3 year lease if that makes any difference.

 

You should have full coverage on your XC60 as part of the lease requirements. This would include glass repair/replacement less your deductible, if any.

I have tire and wheel and have used it once.
