Tesla is in India! It's no secret that the American manufacturer has started testing its cars in the country. Earlier, the latest iteration of the Tesla Model Y was spotted testing on roads near Mumbai. Now, another set of pictures has surfaced on the internet showing the electric car parked alongside the previous-gen version. However, the newer of the two in the pictures is covered in camouflage while the other one is not covered at all.
The latest spotting of the cars fuels the speculations that the Tesla Model Y will be the first car of the brand in the Indian market. If this is what the brand is planning to do, it seems like a feasible decision considering the inclination of consumers towards SUVs. Furthermore, this might provide a good stepping stone for consumers who are enthusiastic about the brand's entry into the country.
