Tesla Introduces 'Diamond Black' Paint Option for Model 3 and Model Y Vehicles
New Premium Diamond Black Paint Color Now Available for Tesla Model 3 and Model Y
Tesla has introduced a new paint color option for its popular Model 3 and Model Y vehicles - the Diamond Black. This sleek, luxurious finish adds a distinctive deep black finish to the exterior of both models, enhancing their aesthetic appeal.
The Diamond Black color is available on the latest Model Y variants, including the Long Range RWD and AWD trims, priced around $44,990 to $48,990 USD for the 2026 model year. For the Model 3, the Diamond Black option has been newly released, though detailed pricing and trim specifics are less documented.
The new paint color is part of several updates for the 2026 Model Y, including refreshed front and rear styling with a cost-effective bumper design, a larger 15.4-inch center display, panoramic glass roof with UV and heat protection, and ventilated/heated seats front and rear. Other notable features include standard 19" alloy wheels with an optional 20" upgrade, retained indicator stalk for simpler driving, and enhanced interior materials with vegan leather and soft-touch surfaces for a premium feel.
In the Canadian and US markets, while exact regional availability or pricing differentials are not explicitly clarified, the Model Y with Diamond Black is actively marketed and sold in both regions as part of Tesla's updated 2026 lineup. The Diamond Black color is named and demonstrated on Tesla's website, offering a closer look at the new paint color.
The Diamond Black color replaces Solid Black as a paint color option for the Model 3, but not for the Model Y on Tesla's Canadian site. Solid Black remains the included option for the Model 3 on Tesla's Canadian site. The Model Y's availability of Diamond Black is expected to be updated in the near future on Tesla's Canadian site.
The Diamond Black color upgrade for the Model 3 carries a $1,500 US price tag, but this information is not provided for the Model Y on Tesla's Canadian site. However, the new paint color is named Diamond Black and a video shared by Tesla demonstrates the shine and sparkles of the Diamond Black color.
If you are looking for a luxury black finish combined with Tesla's latest interior and tech refreshes, the Diamond Black option on the 2026 Model 3 and Model Y is a notable choice offered now in North America. Keep an eye on Tesla's Canadian site for updates regarding the availability and pricing of the Diamond Black color for the Model Y.
