Tesla Faces Rough Ride Online As Indians React To Pricing, Road Conditions

Tesla has arrived in India, with its first showroom in Mumbai and plans underway for a second outlet in Delhi. The Mumbai showroom, located at Maker Maxity in Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC), features the Model Y in Long-Range RWD and AWD variants, with deliveries expected to begin in August. The EVs are being imported as completely built units (CBUs), with prices ranging from Rs 59.9 lakh to Rs 67.9 lakh, driven by India's high import duties (up to 70 per cent). For now, there are no local manufacturing plans, but Tesla has posted 13 new job listings across India and is mapping out supercharger networks in Delhi NCR, Mumbai, and Bengaluru. Despite the premium launch, Tesla's India debut triggered a wave of critical reactions online, pointing out price sensitivity, road conditions, and the impracticality of self-driving in India's unpredictable traffic. A user on X wrote, "Rs 60 lakh and a 500 km range. Mahindra, Tata, Hyundai, etc - these brands are better suited for us... and please don't cry about self-driving features. This is India, you're not safe even when you're driving manually. You think you can trust self-driving?" 60 Lacs and 500km Range ????

Experiencing a Tesla in India as EV maker enters market

The much-anticipated American automaker Tesla has officially arrived in India. Its first showroom has opened in Mumbai's BKC, with the Model Y SUV being the brand's debut offering. The electric SUV is available in two variants: the rear-wheel-drive Model Y is priced at Rs 59.89 lakh (ex-showroom), while the long-range rear-wheel-drive version comes in at Rs 67.89 lakh (ex-showroom). Deliveries are expected to begin as early as Q3 what's it like to be in a Tesla? We had the opportunity to drive the Model 3 sedan some time ago, and here's what the experience was like. The Tesla Model 3 was introduced as one of the most affordable offerings in the company's global lineup. advertisementTesla Model 3: Exterior design and detailsThe Tesla Model 3 was introduced as one of the most affordable offerings in the company's global lineup, which now includes the Model S, Model X, Cybertruck, and, most recently, the Model Y — Tesla's debut model in first glance, the Model 3 may look like a sleek sports car, but in reality, it's a full-fledged sedan. It measures 4,694mm in length, 1,849mm in width, and 1,443mm in height. The front-end design is clean and minimalist, devoid of a traditional grille, a now-common trait amongst electric vehicles. Sleek headlamps are integrated seamlessly into the bodywork, giving the car a futuristic the bonnet and, unlike conventional cars, there's no engine. Instead, Tesla has cleverly used this space for a compact front trunk, or "frunk", which is surprisingly practical. The Model 3 measures 4,694mm in length, 1,849mm in width, and 1,443mm in height. In profile, the Model 3 features a sweeping roofline that flows elegantly into the rear, enhancing its coupe-like silhouette. The large BBS alloy wheels add a bold stance, though the low-profile tyres do demand caution on rough Indian closely and you'll discover several thoughtful design elements. Cameras embedded in the front fenders are part of the car's comprehensive sensor suite. The doors are pillarless, lending a true sports car vibe, and the B-pillar houses a sensor that unlocks the door with a key card. The flush-fitting door handles add to the aerodynamic styling and are fun to the back, the sloping design leads to a modest-looking boot, but don't be fooled. Open it up and you'll find generous cargo space. The all-glass roof is another standout feature, stretching across the top and offering an airy, panoramic experience. It's even the left rear fender sits the charge port. Tap on it and it pops open in a sci-fi-like motion. Inside, you'll find two connectors: one for a standard charger and the other for a Supercharger. The latter can provide up to 277km of range in just 15 minutes — a feature that has made Tesla models highly practical for long-distance travel in markets like the US, UK, and Europe. The good news? Tesla is in the process of building its Supercharger network in India, which is expected to be operational before customer deliveries of the Model Y begin. All Teslas come with cabins that look smooth and devoid of a plethora of buttons. The Model 3 was no different. Tesla Model 3: Interiors, space and featuresStep inside the Tesla Model 3, and it quickly becomes clear why this car feels so special. The dashboard is completely devoid of conventional knobs, buttons, or dials. There's no traditional instrument cluster either. Instead, a massive 15-inch touchscreen takes centre stage, serving as the nerve centre of the Model from starting the car (using a key card and code) to adjusting climate settings, navigation, and even gaming is controlled through this intuitive interface. It's an impressive piece of tech that redefines the in-car centre console features deep storage compartments, twin cupholders, and wireless charging pads for added convenience. The steering wheel includes compact rotary knobs that control various functions, and even the door releases are electrically operated, adding to the futuristic vibe inside the Model 3: Rear seat experienceAt the rear, the Tesla Model 3 continues to impress with its flat floor, which ensures ample legroom and added comfort for all three passengers. The absence of a central tunnel means the middle-seat occupant doesn't have to crouch or compromise on space, a rare advantage in most sedans.A standout feature is the expansive glass roof, which floods the cabin with natural light and enhances the sense of space. However, during peak summer months, it can contribute to increased cabin heat, something to keep in mind in a tropical climate. Sleek headlamps are integrated seamlessly into the bodywork, giving the car a futuristic appeal. Tesla Model 3: Powertrain and rangeWhat truly sets the Tesla apart is its powertrain. The Tesla All-Wheel Drive system features two independent electric motors, each with only one moving part, ensuring minimal maintenance and maximum durability. Unlike conventional all-wheel-drive setups, Tesla's system digitally controls torque distribution between the front and rear wheels, resulting in superior handling and Long Range AWD variant we tested delivers an impressive 449bhp and 528Nm of torque. It also boasts a claimed WLTP range of 579km, adding to its practicality for long-distance travel. The Long Range AWD variant accelerates from 0 to 100kmph in just 4.2 seconds. advertisementTesla Model 3: The driving experienceThe Tesla Model 3 you see here hasn't been locally manufactured or modified in any way, and that means it demands extra caution over the notoriously sharp speed humps scattered across Indian it through city traffic is an experience in itself. It's almost entertaining to watch how heads turn and curiosity builds around this futuristic machine. But it's out on the open road where the Model 3 truly comes Long Range AWD variant accelerates from 0 to 100kmph in just 4.2 seconds, and you can instantly feel the surge of torque pushing you back into your seat. It grips the road confidently too, and on Bengaluru's NICE Road, we had quite an engaging drive. That said, those ultra-low-profile tyres demand caution; even a single sharp stone could spell the end of the day, the Tesla is, at its core, an electric car like many others. But what sets it apart is the larger-than-life aura Elon Musk and Tesla have built around it. And for that alone, the Model 3 isn't just a car, it's a statement.
