The Model 3 and all-wheel-drive Model Y are not currently available in India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Customization and Additional Costs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The base price of \u20b960 lakh includes only the grey color with a black interior. Customizing the car with different colors and interiors will increase the price:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Colors:<\/strong> Red and quicksilver colors cost an extra \u20b91.85 lakh.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Interior:<\/strong> A white interior costs an additional \u20b995,000.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Customization can add an extra \u20b92.5 to \u20b93 lakh to the total cost.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why is it so Expensive?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The high price is primarily due to India&#8217;s import duty structure, which imposes a 70-80% tax on cars valued over $40,000. Since the cars are fully imported from Shanghai, China, this results in an import duty of approximately \u20b921 lakh per unit. Prices may decrease in the future if a free trade agreement is established between India and the European Union.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Specifications and Features<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Standard Version:<\/strong> Comes with a 65 kWh LFP battery, a claimed range of around 500 km, and can accelerate from 0 to 100 km\/h in 5.9 seconds.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Long-Range Version:<\/strong> Features a 75 kWh NMC battery with a WLTP range of around 622 km.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Both models are feature-packed with power-reclining, heated, and ventilated seats, a panoramic glass roof, ambient lighting, and a nine-speaker sound system. They also include a 15.4-inch front display and an 8-inch rear display, with full control available via an app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Battery and Charging<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Model Y is compatible with fast chargers up to 250 kW, although most DC fast chargers in India have a lower capacity of 25 to 60 kW.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Warranty and Bookings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The car comes with a 4-year or 80,000 km warranty, while the battery has a separate 8-year warranty. Bookings have already started, with deliveries for the long-range version expected in October.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Based on the video, this blog post provides a
