Tesla begins India journey in Mumbai; check full price list of Model Y
Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk 's Tesla is now selling its Model Y vehicles in India, starting at around $69,770 (₹60 lakh), according to its website on Tuesday, as the electric vehicle maker prepares to open its first showroom in Mumbai, the country's financial hub. India is currently the world's third-largest automobile market, though electric vehicles still account for only a small share. Concerns over the availability of charging infrastructure continue to discourage even wealthy buyers from choosing electric cars.

Among Indian manufacturers, Tata Motors and Mahindra are the most active in the mass-market electric vehicle space. Live Events Security was visible outside the Tesla showroom, where the company's logo appeared in black on a plain white wall. The Model Y was partly visible through the glass of the gated office compound on Tuesday, covered in black and grey fabric. Strict access controls meant only a few people gathered near the location, with limited interest from the public or fans. Musk has had an interest in entering the Indian market for some time. India is now the world's most populous nation, and wealthy consumers are spending heavily on everything from flats and watches to jewellery and even bathrooms. India has set a target of increasing the share of electric vehicles in its domestic car market to 30% by 2030, up from the current 4%. It has offered tax reductions to foreign carmakers willing to commit to local manufacturing. These incentives have not strongly attracted Musk, even though the policy was partly aimed at bringing Tesla into the country. Tesla's debut comes just as Vietnam-based electric carmaker Vinfast begins pre-bookings in India for its VF7 and VF6 electric SUVs. Tesla's Model Y rear-wheel drive is priced at ₹60 lakh ($70,000) for upfront payment, while the long-range rear-wheel drive version is listed at ₹68 lakh ($79,000). In comparison, the base Model Y costs $44,990 in the US, 263,500 yuan ($36,700) in China, and €45,970 ($53,700) in Germany.

Despite tariffs, it's still America first for Asia's legacy automakers
SEOUL/TOKYO: Toyota and Hyundai Motor may have a beef with U.S. protectionism, but they have one thing in common with President Donald Trump: when it comes to global car markets, it's America first for Asia's legacy automakers. Trump's tariffs on imported automobiles have upended the outlook for the global industry, yet the U.S. remains by far the most important market for Japan's Toyota, South Korea's Hyundai and Asian rivals including Honda and Nissan. North America accounts for at least 40% of the revenue at both Toyota and Hyundai, filings show. The market's importance is unlikely to change any time soon, industry insiders and analysts said, especially with China, now the world's biggest auto market, dominated by homegrown electric vehicle makers such as BYD.

"The environment that we're in now is becoming increasingly harsh and uncertain, starting with U.S. tariffs," Mazda executive officer Noriyuki Takimura told reporters at an event in Tokyo last week. Mazda aims to strike a balance between "defensive" measures like cost-cuts and "offensive" ones like strengthening its product lineup, he said. Live Events Two Hyundai insiders and two Japanese auto executives separately told Reuters they had no intention of downsizing their U.S. businesses in response to tariffs, even as they acknowledged the difficulties ahead. All four spoke on condition of anonymity. The U.S. is Toyota's biggest market in terms of vehicles. It sold 2.3 million vehicles there in 2024, including its Lexus brand, accounting for more than a fifth of its global total. As a source of revenue, North America was second only to Japan in the last financial year. Hyundai's North American revenue was the highest in almost a decade last year. Kim Chang-ho, an analyst at Korea Investment & Securities, estimated it generates around 60% of its profits from the U.S., thanks to higher vehicle prices. Mocked in the U.S. in the 1980s for its perceived shoddy quality, Hyundai doubled down there around a decade ago, especially after tensions between Beijing and Seoul and the rise of domestic EV makers saw it start to lose ground in China. "After years of putting in effort, our brand is finally gaining recognition in the United States," one of the Hyundai insiders said. "So we will not take our hands off the U.S." Game of chicken The U.S. has seen a surge in demand for hybrids as consumers have become more concerned about the battery range, price and charging hassles of EVs. Fuel-efficient models such as hybrids will be a key driver to gaining market share, said Morningstar analyst Vincent Sun. Toyota, Hyundai and Kia have particularly strong hybrid offerings. So far, most legacy Asian automakers have avoided raising prices in the U.S. and stronger players are likely to continue to hold off doing so, despite lower profitability, analysts said. Instead, the focus will likely be on taking market share from lower-margin rivals like Nissan and Stellantis, analysts said. 'It will shape up like a game of chicken," said Kim Sung-rae, an analyst at Hanwha Investment & Securities. "Those who will hold up well will emerge as winners.' Over time, tariffs could be a catalyst to help drive consolidation in the industry, or at least deepen existing tie-ups. Investors wonder if tariffs could push Nissan to revive merger talks with Honda that fell apart this year. Mazda, which is 5.1% owned by Toyota, and Subaru, which is 21% owned by Toyota, could become more reliant on the bigger company. More investment? While Hyundai and Kia have three U.S. factories, they still import about two-thirds of the vehicles sold there. Toyota manufactured 1.3 million vehicles in the U.S. last year, equal to 54% of the vehicles it sold there. Japanese automakers have invested more than $66 billion in U.S. manufacturing since the 1980s, building some two dozen plants, according to the JAMA auto lobby group. At a White House event attended by Trump in March, Hyundai announced a $21 billion investment plan, including a new steel factory, and a plan to boost U.S. production capacity to 1.2 million vehicles a year. The tariffs are likely to encourage Japanese and South Korean automakers to invest more into expanding production capacity and localising supply chains to protect their positions, said Justinas Liuima of research firm Euromonitor International. They will also continue to benefit from one aspect of U.S. protectionism: higher tariffs on Chinese EVs, which means they don't face the same Chinese competition in the U.S. that they do in emerging Asian markets, Liuima said. China ships very few cars to the United States, which imposed a 100% tariff on imported Chinese EVs under the previous administration of President Joe Biden. One of the Japanese executives said it wasn't a matter of simply boosting U.S. production, as high costs, especially of labour, would also weigh on profitability. "It is really a game-changer," Julie Boote, analyst at Pelham Smithers Associates in London, said about the potential longer-term tariff impact. Some automakers have held off giving guidance that takes into account tariffs for the full year, meaning investors may be in store for a rude awakening as companies adjust forecasts as they report quarterly earnings, she said. "There's lots of talk that it's already priced in. I don't really think it is."

Asian stock market today: Indices trade mixed amid Trump's renewed tariff threat; Hang Seng up 0.2%, Shenzhen dips 0.9%
Asian shares were mixed on Tuesday, as renewed concerns over US President Donald Trump's tariff plans unsettled investors. Japan's benchmark Nikkei 225 gained 64 points, or 0.16%, in morning trade, reaching 39,524. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index also edged up by 47 points, or 0.2%, to 24,250. However, South Korea's Kospi slipped 5 points, or 0.18%, to 3,196 at 10:30 am IST. Shanghai's benchmark Shenzhen also dropped 32 points, or 0.93%, to 3,486 after Chinese government data showed a slowdown in growth during the last quarter, as Trump's escalating trade war began to bite. The Chinese economy grew by 5.2% annually in the second quarter, down from 5.4% in the first three months of the year. On a quarterly basis, it expanded by 1.1%. Despite concerns over the impact of the proposed tariffs on regional exporters, there is still speculation that Trump may ultimately soften his stance. The tariffs are not due to come into effect until August 1, leaving room for further negotiations. On Wall Street, Monday saw modest gains. The S&P 500 inched up 0.1%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.2%, and the Nasdaq rose 0.3%. Investors in Japan are also awaiting the outcome of Sunday's nationwide election for the upper house of Parliament. Analysts suggest the ruling pro-business Liberal Democratic Party may struggle and could need to form new coalitions to maintain power. If Trump's tariffs are fully enacted next month, analysts warn they could heighten the risk of a recession, hurting American consumers and increasing the US debt burden, especially in the wake of recent large-scale tax cuts.
