Tesla is accelerating its India plans — and this time, it’s not just about buzz. After establishing a strong foothold in Mumbai, Elon Musk’s electric vehicle empire is expanding its physical presence in the north. With a massive commercial lease in Gurugram, Tesla is gearing up to make its services more accessible to the growing Indian EV market.
Tesla’s Gurugram Expansion: What's the Buzz?
