    it seems they didn’t coat the stainless steel with paint, which is a mistake and that’s why there’s this news article.

      Are you saying that the Model 3 is unpainted?

      Well, it is, and it’s painted in organic paint, which is much more delicate than traditional paints, and that’s why that statement is also found in Model 3’s user manuals as well.

      While I don’t have anything to quote, I am wondering if perhaps the Cybertruck actually does have a layer of organic paint which is either transparent or just stainless-steel colored.

      Ps. This is not the hill I’ll die on. I am not much of a Tesla fan and my experience about it comes from a close friend of mine’s Model 3. I only wanted to make it clear that this is not a Cybertruck exclusive warning and thus I believe it has nothing to do with the stainless steel being exposed.

        it’s in the second line of the article:

        Tesla chose to leave its stainless steel exterior unpainted.

          That’s right, but as I said, I’m not much of a Tesla fan, which is why I don’t really care much for that, and I don’t believe I’ll see many CTs in Europe anyways.

          No matter what, my point still stands, that warning has been around for a while on Model 3’s.
