Surrounded by media, Shinde called Tesla’s India debut a significant milestone and praised Maharashtra’s investment climate, stating that the state has the highest foreign direct investment (FDI) and robust infrastructure, making it ideal for global investors. According to Tesla’s newly released India price list, the Model Y starts at INR 60 lakh, with two variants: the Rear-Wheel Drive (INR 60 lakh) and Long Range RWD (INR 68 lakh).
