It's matte. I think it's Just primer
They don’t clear unseen body panels. I’m pretty sure it’s paint. Unless they use a totally different primer for every color.
Edit- I should also add that multi stage paints are not going to get all paint stages. No need to and is cost mor in paint and weight. Some “Pheasant” models are probably the same underbody color to sped production. It’s pretty common. But it’s not primer.

Yeah, they've been doing this for generations and I think you're right, it's just the base coat(color coat), not primer.
 
26 lariat has black paint under there. What’s the insulation do? I mean why I guess lol. I know factually what it IS.
 
Kind of sucks that Ford just removes features that clearly end up appearing as something is missing?

Like why is my wheel well show paint and all these rock chips or why does my inside hood have all these holes? What's next, where are the wheel center caps? or aren't I supposed to have a steering wheel :unsure: ?

Every single manufacturer does it. Hell, it’s not even limited to vehicles.

Gotta take the center caps off anyway
