While I didn't spell this out, luxury sports models are just about the one exception to the rule. Lexus is a luxury brand and that is a sports model.
Most vehicles are not luxury or sports models so my statement is still accurate.

EDIT: Looking up replacement parts, Toyota and Lexus uses a "stud" style pedal that's bolted into the accelerator at the floor. In this case a "cover" isn't really applicable.
Many vehicle use a style similar to Ford's: https://parts.ford.com/shop/en/us/engine/other-engine-parts/pedal-brake-p-ml3z2455e?pdp=y https://parts.ford.com/shop/en/us/engine/other-engine-parts/...
This is essentially a metal arm with a small cover attached to it.
EDIT 2: Just grabbing a bit of ancedata to support my internal data.

In fact, I think you might have the only manufacturer that actually doesn't use a cover. Likely in response to their pedal scandal as older Toyota models use an arm with a cover.
