Earlier we used to import, now we will get home delivery. Earlier, Indian consumers used to order Tesla cars through individual imports, which involved heavy custom duties and logistics challenges. But now the company has started home delivery service to select customers in Delhi, Mumbai and Pune including Gurugram.
The service will be based on pre-booking, where customers can order online and the car will be delivered to their home. According to the operations head of the company, a showroom has been opened in Aerocity near Gurugram, the work of building a showroom on Sohna Road is going on. At present, customers will get the facility of home delivery and the hassles of import will end.
The company has recently set up its R&D center in Bengaluru and is considering local production. Experts believe that Tesla’s entry will increase competition in the Indian EV market, where brands like Tata, Mahindra and MG are already active.
