TL;DR
Tesla's Model Y sales in India dropped by 37.5% in October 2025 to 40 units, even as the broader Indian EV market grew by nearly 18%.
Tesla's Model Y sales in India experienced a notable downturn in October 2025, with only 40 units sold, representing a 37.5% decrease compared to its performance in September. This dip in sales occurred despite a robust 17.78% month-on-month growth in the overall Indian electric vehicle market, suggesting a potential stabilization of demand for the Model Y following its initial market excitement. Since its entry into the Indian market in July, Tesla has accumulated 104 units in sales.
The premium pricing of the Tesla Model Y places it in direct competition with other luxury electric vehicles in India, such as the Mercedes-Benz EQA and BMW iX1 LWB. The sales figures indicate that while the broader EV market in India continues its upward trajectory, Tesla's initial momentum with the Model Y may be leveling off as more competitors and models become available.
