Tesla’s price cut of ₹900k—shrinking the Model Y from ₹51.79 lakh to ₹50.89 lakh—has sent a clear signal to buyers. In September alone, 291 units were delivered, a 322% jump over the same month last year.
The 5‑seater Premium RWD comes with a 64‑kWh pack that can glide 500 km under WLTP, while the Premium Long Range ups the battery to 84.2 kWh for a 661‑km claim and 299 hp of torque.
With 1,017 deliveries, Tesla now owns 30% of India’s premium EV market, eclipsing BMW’s 51% share by a small margin in September. It also knocked Mercedes‑Benz out of the second spot, taking the runner‑up title for the first time.
Tesla has spread its footprint to eight showrooms and a growing charging network, including a new Destination Charger in Thane that adds four 11‑kW units to the existing seven sites.
The Model Y debuted in September 2025 and is now available across major metros; the price cut is expected to fuel further demand through 2027 as Tesla ramps up local manufacturing. Buyers should keep an eye on the upcoming Model Y L launch and the company’s plans to localize production, which could bring down prices even further.
