Tesla Opens First Supercharger Station in India

Tesla has launched its first Supercharger station in India, signalling a major step in the company’s entry into the country’s electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure sector.
Located at One BKC in Mumbai, the facility features four V4 Supercharger stalls and four 11 kW AC Destination Chargers. It is the first of eight planned installations that Tesla intends to roll out nationwide in the coming months, according to a PTI report.
The V4 Superchargers support peak charging speeds of 250 kW and are priced at Rs 24 per kWh. For Tesla Model Y owners, a full charge is estimated to cost around Rs 1,800 for the Standard variant and over Rs 2,000 for the Long Range model. The slower AC Destination Chargers are priced at Rs 14 per kWh, offering a more economical but time-intensive option.
Under optimal conditions, Tesla claims its Superchargers can add up to 267 kilometres of range in just 15 minutes. Charging speeds, however, can vary based on battery condition and temperature. The Model Y’s navigation system also enables users to locate the nearest Supercharger and precondition the battery en route for faster charging.
Owned and operated by Tesla, the BKC station boasts an uptime of 99.95 per cent, ensuring near-continuous service. The company plans to expand its Mumbai network with new stations in Lower Parel, Thane, and Navi Mumbai by September.
Tesla will also open its second Indian experience centre in Delhi, alongside charging stations in Aerocity, Noida, and Gurugram. This expansion comes as the EV maker strengthens its presence in India ahead of future vehicle sales.
