New Delhi, Aug 11 (NationPress) Tesla, the electric vehicle company led by Elon Musk, is poised to make its debut in the capital city today by unveiling its second showroom in India.
The new showroom is strategically located in the upscale Worldmark 3 complex at Aerocity, catering to customers in the National Capital Region, which is vital for India's electric mobility initiative.
Currently, Tesla's offerings in India include the Model Y electric SUV available in two configurations. The standard Rear-Wheel Drive (RWD) model is priced at ₹59.89 lakh (ex-showroom), while the Long Range RWD variant costs ₹67.89 lakh (ex-showroom). Deliveries for both models are anticipated to commence in the third quarter of 2025.
On the social media platform X, Tesla announced, “Arriving in Delhi - stay tuned,” accompanied by an eye-catching graphic highlighting its arrival.
This launch comes after the opening of its inaugural showroom in Mumbai's Bandra Kurla Complex on July 15.
The Mumbai event saw the attendance of Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, who commended Tesla’s entry into the state and extended an invitation for the establishment of R&D and manufacturing facilities.
The Tesla Model Y offers two versions: the standard RWD featuring a 60 kWh battery with a WLTP-certified range of 500 km, and the long-range RWD variant equipped with a 75 kWh battery providing up to 622 km on a single charge.
Deliveries will initially focus on customers in Mumbai, Pune, Delhi, and Gurugram, with vehicles being delivered directly to customers' homes via flatbed trucks. The company has also revamped its website to facilitate vehicle registration across all states and union territories, broadening accessibility beyond its initial launch cities.
While Tesla lists the full self-driving (FSD) feature as an optional add-on for ₹6 lakh, this advanced capability will be rolled out in India at a later date.
