Electric vehicle maker Tesla has expanded its presence in India with the launch of its fifth Experience Center in Hyderabad's HITEC City, while also commencing delivery and after-sales services in Telangana as it deepens its footprint in the country's growing EV market.

According to Tesla, visitors will be able to explore the vehicles through "guided walkarounds and immersive product experiences" and learn about the company's "design philosophy, cutting-edge electric vehicle technology, safety features, and performance capabilities in an interactive environment."

The vehicle is priced at Rs 50.89 lakh and deliveries are scheduled to begin in July 2026.
