Tesla, the US-based electric vehicle maker, has opened its second showroom in India — an 8,200 sq ft facility at Worldmark 3 in Delhi’s Aerocity — just weeks after its debut at Mumbai’s Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC). The Aerocity location marks the company’s first outlet in the National Capital Region.

According to documents accessed by CRE Matrix, Elon Musk’s Tesla India Motors and Energy Pvt Ltd, which opened its second experience centre on August 11 in Delhi’s Aerocity hospitality district near Indira Gandhi International Airport, has leased the commercial space for nine years at a monthly rent of Rs 17.22 lakh.

Leveraging the advantage of its location, Tesla has set up four V4 Superchargers in the basement parking. The EV manufacturer also has plans to introduce Superchargers in different locations in Delhi NCR, including Saket, Noida, and Horizon Centre. This follows the inauguration of the first supercharger in Mumbai a few days ago.

The expansion plans also include a charging network setup in eight different locations, including places like Hyderabad, Pune, Chennai, Bengaluru, Ahmedabad, and Jaipur.

The V4 Supercharger, equipped with DC chargers, is paired with four Destination Charging Stalls featuring AC chargers. With these, the newly launched Tesla Model Y can add up to 267 km of range in just 15 minutes. According to the company, that’s enough for five round trips between Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport and the Gateway of India.

To utilise the charger, Tesla electric vehicle owners must connect their vehicles. Customers can check for availability using the Tesla app. This app also allows users to track the charging progress, get notifications during the charging process, and make payments for charging.

In India, the Tesla Model Y is offered in both RWD (rear-wheel drive) and long-range RWD versions. The RWD variant starts at Rs 59.89 lakh, while the long-range model is priced at Rs 67.89 lakh. This brings the total on-road cost to Rs 61.07 lakh for the RWD version and Rs 69.15 lakh for the long-range variant.

In India, purchasers of the rear-wheel drive variant of the Tesla Model Y can choose between a 60 kWh battery or a larger 75 kWh battery pack. This RWD model is equipped with a single electric motor that generates approximately 295 hp. Furthermore, the 60 kWh battery is reported to have a WLTP range of 500 km when fully charged, while the long-range model is said to provide a range of 622 km.

Elon Musk’s Tesla Inc. officially entered the Indian market on July 15 with the launch of its first showroom at Maker Maxity Mall in Mumbai’s Bandra Kurla Complex, marking the EV giant’s debut in the world’s third-largest automobile market.
