Experiencing the New Tesla Model Y L in Bengaluru
The electric vehicle landscape in India has taken a significant leap forward, and we were there to witness it firsthand. Tesla today opens its first experience center in the IT Hub of Bengaluru – Whitefield, India’s Silicon Valley. We had the opportunity to visit the newly established venue to see what the brand has brought to the Indian market. Customers can now experience Model Y, the world’s best-selling vehicles (2023-2025) and Model Y L, the latest six-seater SUV from May 14, 2026 onwards.
The absolute highlight of the showroom floor is the newly launched Model Y L. Positioned as the ultimate family vehicle, it is uniquely configured as a three-row, six-seater electric SUV. With the three-row design, Model Y L maximizes headroom, legroom and comfort to give a unique experience to the driver and the passengers. The interior feels expansive, confirming its focus on providing more interior space, versatility and utility for family users.
Performance specifications for the new SUV are highly competitive. Model Y L offers a range of up to 681 km (WLTP), 0-100 km/h acceleration in just 5.0 seconds and cargo space up to 2,539 L. This blend of rapid acceleration and vast storage capacity makes it a highly practical option for both city driving and extended road trips. The vehicle is officially starting at INR 61.99 Lakhs.
Tesla vehicles are engineered for safety, both Model Y L and Model Y have received the highest safety ratings in multiple renowned global safety organizations, including NHTSA and IISH (America), Euro ANCP (Europe), ANCP (Australia and New Zealand), and CIASI (China). Specifically, the Model Y L holds a 5-star safety rating in ANCAP. These accolades highlight Tesla’s commitment to setting new benchmarks in safety, efficiency, performance, and advanced technology.
Addressing the common concern of charging infrastructure, the ecosystem supporting the vehicle is robust. With Tesla Supercharging, Model Y L can charge up to 288 km of range in just 15 minutes. The seamless “Plug In, Charge and Go” experience enables convenient and stress-free long-distance travel, making electric mobility practical for everyday use. In addition, home charging support is available in India to ensure a smooth and efficient ownership experience while redefining convenience in sustainable transportation.
Beyond the impressive vehicles on display, the brand is solidifying its footprint in the region. To serve the growing interest in electric mobility in India and furthering the mission to build a world of amazing abundance, Tesla also announces the operations of after-sales service network coverage in Whitefield to further strengthen the ownership experience for its customers in Bengaluru.
