July 15, 2025, 22:25 IST /2 min read Credits: Getty Images Elon Musk’s Tesla said in a statement on Tuesday that it will start the deliveries of the newly launched Model Y in the third quarter of 2025. Earlier during the day, Tesla unveiled its first vehicle for India—the Tesla Model Y, the crossover version of the Tesla Model 3—starting from an ex-showroom price of ₹59,89,000 in Mumbai. The company also announced that it will provide a free wall connector with the purchase of a new Tesla, to be installed in customers’ residences. This will, according to the carmaker, allow “customers to wake up with a fully charged Tesla daily, saving them trips to the gas station at a lower cost per mile.” Apart from the cars, Tesla designs, manufactures, deploys, owns, and operates one of the world’s largest fast-charging networks. It said that the first indoor hybrid station, with Superchargers and Destination chargers, will open soon. Tesla’s plan includes opening multiple Supercharging stations and destination charging stations at strategic locations to cover popular destinations across the country, and will be announced in the future.
