Key highlights
Tesla has started delivering Model Y in India from 29th September, two months after the launch and hasn’t disclosed the numbers yet. The brand has opened Experience Centers in Bandra Kurla Complex, Mumbai and Aerocity, Delhi for test drives, bookings and support as these cities are the focus for sales and service. Customers can configure and order the Model Y online and the RWD line up is the initial India portfolio at ex-showroom prices starting at Rs 59.89 lakh
Variants and performance
The Model Y RWD has a WLTP range of up to 500 km and 0-100 km/h in 5.9 seconds, good for mixed city and highway use with its rear motor setup. The Long Range RWD increases the range to 622 km and 0-100 km/h in 5.6 seconds, better for highway cruising and fewer charging stops on long drives. Both have a top speed of 201 km/h internationally and rear wheel traction with Tesla’s single speed drive layout.
Charging network and home setup
Every Model Y buyer will get a free Wall Connector which enables home charging and integrates with the app and vehicle for scheduling and monitoring. Public charging is live at One BKC in Mumbai and Aerocity in Delhi, with a mix of V4 Superchargers (DC) and Destination Chargers (AC) for flexibility. At 250 kW peak charging, Model Y can add 267 km in about 15 minutes and Tesla has announced broader rollouts in Delhi-NCR and Mumbai in the coming weeks and months.
Pricing and availability
Ex-showroom prices are Rs 59.89 lakh for Model Y RWD and Rs 67.89 lakh for Long Range RWD. Optional extras can be added at extra cost through the configurator. Initial deliveries and registrations are in Delhi-NCR and Mumbai, with Experience Centers for walk-ins and test drives in both cities. Bookings have crossed 600 since launch, which is a good start for a premium EV in this price segment.
Quick specs table
Varient | Drivetrain | WLTP range | 0‑100 km/h | Ex‑showroom price |
---|---|---|---|---|
Model Y RWD | RWD | 500 km | 5.9 s | Rs 59.89 lakh |
Model Y Long Range RWD | RWD | 622 km | 5.6 s | Rs 67.89 lakh |
Where to see and order
Order online on Tesla’s website, and visit BKC, Mumbai and Aerocity, Delhi for customer demos, support, and guidance on configuration and delivery timelines. The company is prioritizing these metros for early deliveries, charging availability and service readiness as the rollout scales. Charging locations are visible in-car and in the app, and pre-conditioning helps with faster Supercharger sessions.
Analysis and insights
Tesla starts with two RWD trims at sub-Rs 60 lakh entry pricing and positions the Model Y against premium EV SUVs, focusing on high range and fast charging to reduce range anxiety during intercity trips in western and northern corridors first. The complimentary Wall Connector reduces the total cost of ownership and will likely improve daily charging compliance, while the early V4 Supercharger footprint in Mumbai and Delhi sets a template for phased expansion into NCR satellites and key Mumbai suburbs already named by company leaders. Given WLTP figures of 500-622 km and 250 kW peak rates adding 267 km in about 15 minutes, the Long Range RWD could be the preferred choice for highway users, while the standard RWD may be suitable for urban commuters who want price and still want strong acceleration and a practical range buffer.
