Tesla to import completely made electric cars from Germany into India

Elon Musk-led Tesla is likely to make its foray into the Indian market by directly importing cars from its gigafactory in Germany, according to a report by Moneycontrol. This comes after the Centre has reportedly dissuaded Tesla from importing any car from its Shanghai facility.

A source was quoted in the report as saying that the rising geopolitical tensions between India and China is the main reason for the Centre to deny Tesla. Moreover, India and Germany had recently inked pacts on several disciplines, which the US car maker may leverage.
