This is the first of eight new supercharging sites that Tesla have planned to launch in India. The company has said that their maiden offering for India, the Model Y, can have a range of 267 km in 15 minutes with Tesla Superchargers. 

Tesla have said their supercharging network has an uptime of 99.95 per cent, giving a working charger every time there is need to recharge the battery. The charging speed, though, will of course be affected by conditions like state of charge and temperature. The Tesla Model Y will also guide the car to the nearest charger. It will come with a CCS2 charging port that makes it compatible with other fast charging stations as well. 

Tesla is close to starting deliveries in India from September, with the American-based EV maker starting bookings in July of this year with their electric SUV. The prices are set to start at Rs 59.89 lakh (ex-showroom). It will be prioritising deliveries in Mumbai, Pune, Delhi and Gurugram and then other parts of the country, although they are accepting bookings pan-India.
