Quicksilver's the paint that finally gives the Model Y some drama, and this 2026 refresh got Icon Rocklear, our permanent paint protection coating, before its first week on the road. We shot it at delivery, so what you're looking at is a brand new car with the coating already on it, and the liquid-metal silver picks the studio rig up in long smooth gradients across the new front fascia and the light bar.

This is the eighth Tesla in the gallery and the pattern hasn't changed: protect the paint while it's still perfect and it stays that way. Here's what the coating is doing on all of them.
