Tesla Model Y Features and Price: What Do You Get for ₹59.89 Lakh?
Tesla is finally entering India, and the Tesla Model Y is in the limelight. This ultra-modern SUV offers innovation, power, and style, but comes with a price tag of 59.89 Lakh rupees. So, just what does one get out of that much money?
In Model Y, the rear-wheel version is known as Rear-Wheel Drive, whereas Long Range is available. The standard model has a 5.9-second 0-100 km/h time, and the Long Range boasts more than 600km range. This is great, and in particular, with the Indian buyers who would always want to know whether this car can sustain them through a long drive.

WDG has a twist of simplicity and technicality inside. With its massive 15-inch touchscreen, it is your command center, and all the features, such as navigation, AC, are digitally controlled. Additionally, there is Tesla with the well-known Autopilot; still, complete self-driving may require some time till it can be legalized in the territory of India.
₹59.89 lakh is expensive, but in comparison, bear in mind that heavy customs duties have raised the price of the car in the U.S. by twice. It is a Tesla lifestyle that you are buying, not just a car.

Is the Tesla India Launch Worth the Hype?
There is no way 59.89 lakh is a minor figure. However, it is not only a car that you are paying for with the Tesla India launch. It is the mobility of the future.
Here is the reason to make it worth it:
- Good performance up to 622 km of range
- Simple but high-tech design
- Brand value and future updates in Tesla
- Future synergy with Tesla solar roof. Envisioned synergy between Tesla solar roof and the new product in the future
Why it may not be:
- The cost increases due to import duty
- Narrow service network (at last).
- There are also better EV alternatives priced below 50 lakh (such as BYD Sealion or Kia EV6)
Tesla Model Y is the option to choose when you are an early adopter, a technologist, an environmentalist, and a fan of high-quality products. Local production, or finding other alternatives, are the only options when quantity searching.

Either way, Tesla in India is officially a reality, and it is going to transform the way we drive, charge, and think of EVs.
