Big Step for Tesla in India
Tesla is finally making its official debut in India with the launch of its first-ever showroom, set to open in Mumbai. This marks a major milestone for India’s growing electric vehicle (EV) market.
Location and Launch Timeline
The showroom will be located in the upscale Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC), a prime business district in Mumbai. It is expected to open by mid-July 2025.
What Will Be on Display?
Tesla’s popular Model Y, imported from its factory in Shanghai, will be the highlight. This rear-wheel-drive electric SUV is expected to be priced at over ₹45 lakh, mainly due to India’s high import duties.
Behind the Scenes: Warehousing and Service
To support operations, Tesla has:
- Leased a 4,000 sq. ft. showroom space in BKC’s Maker Maxity complex.
- Rented a 24,565 sq. ft. warehouse in Kurla for vehicle service and delivery.
This setup will help ensure smooth after-sales service and faster deliveries.
After Mumbai, Tesla plans to expand to New Delhi and Gurugram, signaling a much bigger presence in the country.
A Long-Awaited Entry
Tesla’s India entry follows years of negotiations, including a high-profile meeting between Elon Musk and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Now, with rising interest in clean energy and sustainable transport, the timing seems just right.
