condensation


Answer

The surface of the leaves, car bodies, metal structures etc cools below the dewpoint of the air. This occurs in part due to radiative cooling of objects which become cooler than the surrounding air. Note that some "dew" on leaves is actually guttation, or exudation of water from the leaves themselves.
