Tesla arriving in India was nothing short of a monumental feat in the country’s automotive landscape. Ever since Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Devendra Fadnavis, cut open the ribbon of Tesla’s first showroom in India at the Bandra Kurla Complex, the Internet has gone into a frenzy, flooded with reactions from all corners of the nation.
From common people to noted industrialists, many have voiced their opinions about the American EV giant finally landing in India after years of planning, discussions, and negotiations. While some netizens were excited and thrilled with the prospect of Tesla running on Indian roads, others were left wanting for various reasons. Here’s a few of the reactions that caught our way on X (formerly Twitter).
Tesla welcomed in India with open arms
A large section of the online population was positive about Tesla setting shop in India. An X user named Sanatanii tagging Fadnavis said, “Tesla’s arrival in India is a landmark moment. Maharashtra government under CM Fadnavis welcomed this move, highlighting Mumbai’s strength as India’s financial capital and a global business hub. India will embrace Tesla with open arms.”
