Tesla has taken another major step toward establishing its presence in India by opening its first Supercharger station in Gurugram, Haryana. The move aligns with the company’s broader strategy to build a strong EV charging ecosystem in the country while supporting the rollout of the Tesla Model Y electric SUV.

Tesla Opens Its First Supercharger Station in Gurugram

The world-renowned electric car manufacturer Tesla has taken a significant step toward strengthening its footprint in India. The Elon Musk-owned company has officially inaugurated its first charging station in Gurugram, Haryana. Currently, Tesla sells the Model Y electric SUV in India, though the brand has seen a relatively slow start in terms of sales.

Recently, on November 27, 2025, Tesla also opened its first all-in-one center in Gurugram, marking another milestone in its India journey.

Location of the New Tesla Supercharger Station

The newly launched Supercharger station has been set up at DLF Horizon Center on Golf Course Road, Gurugram. This comes shortly after the inauguration of the Tesla Center in the same city, making it the company’s second major achievement in Gurugram.

Supercharger and Destination Charger Details

The Gurugram Supercharger station has been installed in the surface parking area of Horizon Center.

Charging Infrastructure at the Station

  • 4 V4 Superchargers with a maximum charging speed of 250 kW

  • 3 Destination Chargers with a charging speed of 11 kW

Tesla states that using these Superchargers, the Model Y can gain up to 275 km of range in just 15 minutes, making it highly convenient for customers on long journeys.

Tesla’s Vision for Charging Infrastructure in India

Tesla’s General Manager Sharad Agarwal stated that the company’s goal is not just to sell cars, but to build a robust charging ecosystem in India.

Current Tesla Charging Network in India

  • Active charging stations in Gurugram, Delhi, and Mumbai

  • Total charging stations: 3

  • Total Superchargers: 12

  • Total Destination Chargers: 10

The company plans to expand this network rapidly, keeping customer lifestyle and convenience in mind. However, despite infrastructure expansion, Tesla’s initial sales momentum in India has remained modest.

Tesla Sales Performance in India

According to data from the government’s VAHAN portal, Tesla has sold 157 vehicles in India since it began deliveries in September.

Sales Snapshot

  • November deliveries: 48 cars

  • Sales are significantly lower compared to luxury rivals such as BMW and Mercedes-Benz

Tesla currently sells only the Model Y electric SUV in India, priced at around ₹60 lakh. Industry experts believe that Tesla’s market presence will strengthen as its charging network expands further.
