Tesla's entry in India has been foreshadowed for more than half a decade. Elon Musk himself said this numerous times, including earlier this year. But now a report by ET AUTO claims that Tesla is preparing to officially enter India as soon as next month, January 2021. It states that Tesla will open pre-bookings for the Model 3 and then start deliveries for the car by June or the end of Q1 2021-2022.

Tesla Model 3 Is Probably Going To Be Very Expensive
It has been said that Tesla will be importing the car fully, perhaps from China and will be selling them online itself. It will not be selling the cars via dealerships. It has been rumoured that the car could cost as much as Rs 55 lakhs. The car has a range of up to 500 kilometres and a top speed of 162 kmph. It can even do 0-100 kmph in 3.1 seconds. As of now, there is no official confirmation from the company.
Today, Tesla is the world's most valuable automotive company in the world with its sale being fueled majorly by the Tesla Model 3 and Tesla Model Y.
