Tesla India has homologated three new models for the India launch. The information is available through the governments Vahan Sewa portal.
Tesla India recently homologated three more models for India. The American EV manufacturer had previously homologated four models, with these new additions, the total count comes down to 7 models. The Tesla Model 3 is most likely to be homologated because its test mule has been spotted many times in and around Mumbai and Pune.
The Model 3 is available in three variants in the USA, and the Model Y is available in two variants. But since Tesla has registered 7 new models, the other two models can either be the Model S or Model X, where we get just one variant for each of the models.

Union Minister of Road and Transport, Mr. Nitin Gadkari has assured that Tesla cars will have a purchase price of Rs. 35 lakhs, the company is yet to make any such promises.
