Mumbai:
Global EV giant Tesla on Tuesday made its much-awaited entry into India, launching its Model Y with price starting at Rs 59.89 lakh while opening its first experience centre here.
Tesla, led by American tech billionaire Elon Musk who had in the past cited India’s high import tariffs for the company not entering the country earlier, will be importing the Model Y as a completely built unit (CBU), from its Shanghai manufacturing facility in China.
The mid-sized electric SUV Model Y, which was once the world’s best-selling car, will be offered in India in two variants — rear-wheel drive with base price at Rs 59.89 lakh and long-range rear wheel drive at a base price of
Rs 67.89 lakh.
The deliveries are slated to start in the third and fourth quarter of 2025, respectively, for the two variants.
Initially, registration and delivery will start in Delhi, Mumbai, and Gurugram, the company said, adding that through its Tesla Design Studio, customers will be able to customise their Model Y exterior, interior, and even its features.
The rear-wheel drive variant has a range of 500 km while that of the long-range rear wheel drive is 622 km on a single charge.
The Model Y will compete with a range of electric luxury cars from German automakers such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi.
Electric vehicles from Indian manufacturers Tata Motors and Mahindra & Mahindra are priced below Rs 30 lakh.
In the US, the Model Y long-range rear-wheel drive variant is available at USD 37,490 on cash payment.
Tesla’s first experience centre in India at the Maker Maxity Commercial Complex, in Bandra Kurla Complex here was inaugurated by Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis.
Tesla chief for APAC region Isabel Fan at the launch event said Tesla has redefined transportation and the company’s goal is to set a great ecosystem to share technology.
Mumbai Experience Centre is meant for engaging customers, she said, adding that plans are to set up four charging stations each in Mumbai and Delhi.IANS
