Tesla debuts Diamond Black finishing for Model 3 and Model Y vehicles
New Diamond Black Paint Option for Tesla Model 3 and Model Y Now Available
Tesla has introduced a new paint option, Diamond Black, for the Model 3 and Model Y. The new paint option is available starting from June 17, 2025[1].
The Diamond Black paint replaces Solid Black in the online configurator and offers a much more shine compared to other paint options. It sparkles like Pearl White and Midnight Silver Metallic, adding a deep metallic shade that gives the cars a sleek yet dynamic appearance under different lighting conditions[2].
Regarding availability in North America, the new paint option is currently available. While there is no official confirmation, it is expected that the Diamond Black paint option will also be available in Canada soon[3]. Tesla has recently adjusted Model Y pricing and introduced Diamond Black paint in Canada as part of lineup updates[5]. Although exact Canada-specific launch timing is not separately stated, the June 17, 2025 availability strongly suggests it is current or imminent for the Canadian market.
As for the estimated price of the Diamond Black paint in Canadian dollars, specific pricing for this color option is not directly detailed in the available data. However, given Tesla’s significant recent Model Y price adjustments in Canada — with prices for Model Y Long Range AWD dropping from about C$85,000 to approximately C$65,000 as of July 10, 2025[2][5] — it suggests the paint option is included or added for a modest premium relative to overall vehicle price movements. Tesla’s past paint option premiums typically range from hundreds to low thousands of Canadian dollars, but no precise figure for Diamond Black has been found in the search results.
In addition to the Diamond Black paint, Tesla has brought back Deep Blue Metallic for the new Model Y. We expect Deep Blue Metallic to appear on the Canadian configurator soon. The new paint options give the cars a unique and stylish look[4].
The regular version of the new Model Y is now open for orders. Tesla has yet to release any official photos of the new paint options, so potential buyers will have to imagine the cars in their new colours until they become available[6].
