Electric vehicle enthusiasts are excited about Tesla’s latest model in India, the Tesla Model Y 2025. The carmaker now offers reservation access in every state and union territory.
Prospective buyers can start securing their slot through an easy online booking process. Deliveries for the Tesla Model Y will probably begin in the third quarter of 2025.
Wider availability and more transparent pricing are boosting this car’s welcome in India.
Below is a simple and straightforward way to digitally register the Tesla Y model in India:
This process is supported in all 34 states and union territories in Bharat. Remember to lock your place in the waiting queue with the booking fee (non-refundable).
Note: The online configurator displays real-time Tesla Model Y price estimates. This includes insurance and handling charges.
Tesla is offering 2 rear-wheel-drive trims in India:
Model Y Rear-Wheel Drive (RWD)
Model Y Long-Range Rear-Wheel Drive (LR RWD)
There is a minimalist cabin present in both trims. Also available are a 15.4-inch touchscreen, over-the-air software updates, and premium vegan upholstery. For ₹6 lakh, buyers will get a Full Self-Driving option – this is pending regulatory approval.
Tesla’s online tool also features state-specific on-road calculations for Tesla Model Y price transparency.
India’s tax landscape generates key differences in the final purchase cost for the Tesla Model Y. The table below has been collated from numerous sources to help inform interested buyers on state-based tax variations.
State | On-Road Price RWD (INR) | On-Road Price LR RWD (INR) |
---|---|---|
Delhi | ₹61.07 lakh | ₹69.23 lakh |
Maharashtra | ₹62.50 lakh | ₹70.70 lakh |
Karnataka | ₹67.33 lakh | ₹75.43 lakh |
Kerala | ₹64.42 lakh | ₹72.56 lakh |
Deliveries for this pan-India reservation program are set to begin in Q3 2025. The initial rollout is slated for September.
Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, and Gurugram have been prioritized to expedite early shipments to customers. Buyers living or working in these metros can expect 4-6 weeks delivery window; post-confirmation.
Tesla is still scaling its logistics network across tier-II and tier-III cities. So, gradually increasing lead times are unfolding in other regions.
Tesla already has plans for the rapid expansion of its Supercharger network. To this end, they are targeting major highways and stations (every 100-150 km).
To further complement its high-speed Superchargers, Tesla may focus on adding Destination Chargers at premium hotels, malls, and other commercial hubs.
At a later date (probably 2026), after-sales service centers may be available in Bengaluru and Hyderabad. There are also going to be regional workshop tie-ups in emerging EV markets.
Tesla is currently busy importing the Model Y as a completely built unit (CBU) from its Shanghai Gigafactory. Yes, this results in higher costs due to steep import duties. On the other hand, it ensures faster deliveries.
That said, the main reason Tesla hasn’t set up a local manufacturing base yet is due to India’s investment regulations. These require companies to meet specific conditions before establishing production facilities in the country.
Talks are still ongoing between Tesla and Indian authorities to explore possibilities. This includes a dedicated gigafactory that could lower prices for Tesla cars while also creating local employment opportunities.
Early reservation holders have mixed opinions. EV enthusiasts are all praise for the Tesla’s direct-to-customer sales channel, digital configurator, and global tech cachet. Others point out ambiguous delivery updates and partial refunds as pain points.
Based on feedback, Tesla is making committed moves to improve communication. They may do this through dedicated WhatsApp channels and more frequent status alerts.
Now that pan-India registration is live for the Tesla Model Y, the brand has to gradually solidify its leadership in the premium EV segment.
Expect the following developments in future:
You can start reserving your Model Y today and be part of the growing electric mobility revolution in India. Charging infrastructure and supply chains are developing as well. Moreover, ownership costs and delivery wait times are also going to improve steadily, perhaps over the next 18 months.
