Tesla Sells 225 Model Y SUVs in India in 2025, Offers Selective Discounts Amid Slow Sales

Tesla sold approximately 225 Model Y electric SUVs in India during 2025, with deliveries starting mid-year after opening its first showroom. High import duties have kept prices near Rs 60 lakh, limiting appeal in a competitive market. Despite initial bookings, about one-third of imported units remain unsold, prompting Tesla to offer selective discounts up to Rs 2 lakh to boost sales. The Indian EV market grew significantly in 2025, led by two- and three-wheelers, while Tesla's fully imported Model Y faces challenges amid local competition and pricing.
