*Important:* At 5:15 a map was used which excludes portions of India which are claimed by China, despite the fact that they are obviously owned by India. I, Caleb, was the one who edited this video, and completely missed this detail due to the fact that I am not too familiar with the geography of India - while making this blue map of India, I grabbed a silhouette off of Google maps to use as a template in Photoshop, but failed to realize that the silhouette excluded these Chinese-claimed parts of India. I absolutely should have double-checked this to ensure the map's accuracy, but failed to do so. *We are not in support of China claiming these parts of India* and so in order to rectify this, we have intentionally blurred the map of India in an effort to avoid spreading false information. Update: On October 2nd, 2020, Elon Musk tweeted that Tesla would be launching in India in 2021, and thanked Tesla fans for waiting for the EV manufacturer! Tesla is also in discussions with the industries department of the Karnataka government to set up an R&D centre in Bengaluru. Update: Nitin Gadkari has officially announced that Tesla will be coming to India in 2021.
Indian constitution claims those territories based on outdated map cartography done by Britishers a century ago, but for all practical purposes are owned and operated in by China. So there is the Indian nationalism in me which says it belongs to India, but a practical brain which knows the real world scenario. You should look up into the territorial dispute of Kashmir and how it is divided up between India, Pakistan and China if you are interested in Geo-Politics. Apart from that, this was a great video and you summarized the possibility of Tesla coming to India pretty nicely.
@@sushantlakra8791 Like Aksai Chin & Shaksgam Valley being under China, Gilgit baltisan, Muzaffarabad and adjoining area being under pakistan. Jammu, parts of Ladakh and remaining of Kashmir being under India. This is the ground reality right now. Some people want things to be different, some people prefer to live in denial and some in fantasy land, where as for others it does not matter and have other more pressing issues in hand.
@@IrfanKhan1 No offence but idc about the geographical land claim and all. ( I find tension our such things very overrated ) but you don't seem to be right either. Baki kch bol bhai , China and Pakistan claims over half of norther- Eastern part of India. Plus china has disputes with every other country they share border with. And guess what they are claiming land where they don't even share borders. Lol anyway everyone has thre own perspective. So by your comment you seem to be in dilemma too. 👍
Haha thanks for the kind words Urbanatic, we definitely put a lot of effort into the research on this particular video, so the recognition is very much appreciated! -Caleb

😂 Let's hope not! I can't wait for Tesla to come to India so someone can make a RU-vid video titled *Tesla Autopilot in Mumbai* - I'm sure it would be an entertaining video. -Caleb
@@backstagewithmillionaires you responded to almost every comment in this video. Very admirable ❤️. Last year I bought an electric scooter which runs on a car battery. I live in mumbai and in a building apparent so I cannot charge my vehicle by just plug-in . I have to take the battery out and than charge it in my home. This has to one on the major points you missed NOT EVERY ONE HERE HAS PARKING SPOTS let alone a charging point with it. Tesla cannot target even the middle class if india.. Only people they an target is rich but why will rich people buy Tesla they will opt for more luxary options like JLR . Also that electric scooter I bought .. it gives me the range of 50km per charge.. it's terrible
@@veernair I grew up driving in mumbai... There is nothing to follow here. The driver needs to be alert 100% all the time. If they do it.. it won't go anywhere in mumbai coz their are no lanes. And we make our own dam lanes depending on the situation.. it's highy unlikely... I know ai is powerful. But do you really think that can fir that much data and processing power in a computer which is also car. People here look at each other's faces and decided to take action like turn or stop or whatever. Ai can't do that. Anyways indians prefer stick shift coz they like being in control of the gear. I don't think so autopilot Is gonna be their choice. Also government lol
If tesla’s autopilot becomes a success in identifying indian roads , it means that tesla’s autopiolt is now an superpowered vehicle . It keans it will never crash in any country 🤣
Haha I'm glad you noticed and appreciate this Sarveshwar!

Thank you for saying that Chirag! Overall, more than 2 months went into this video, and a solid few weeks of that was dedicated to research, so I'm glad you found it insightful and well-researched 🙂. -Caleb
It would be awesome 😁! Even if Tesla doesn't do it, somebody needs to make a DIY Cyberauto soon, preferably in Bangalore so that I can test it out for myself! -Caleb
@@backstagewithmillionaires I keep an image search of the Cybertruck open on my web browser at my phone to show people the truck I want to get. While looking at the Cyber ATV in the back of CT - I realized that the power of that ATV would be more than enough to turn into "Cyberauto" so perhaps we'll see that!
@@Ashahar-cc4vb Bro, I'm talking about the CyberAuto, made by Tesla, with all the edges of the CyberTruck. That would be crazy. BTW, I know there are electric autos in India, there is a Bajaj factory near my home where I see them being tested almost everyday. I'm specifically talking about the CyberAuto.

Totally disagree and the information is false . There are many models of different cars costing 20 lakhs and are selling . Indian buyer is much smarter and won’t pay crazy price just for a name . The product has to prove it self for value-for money. There are more than 60 towns or cities which can afford it .
Hi Advait, I wouldn't be so sure! AI/ML is super powerful, and as long as Tesla invests in training Autopilot to handle Indian roads, I think they have a shot at creating an effective Autopilot for India. -Caleb
Omg FIST AwM, you are the first person to mention these *_glares_* it is so hard to see at night 😂 I used to keep my helmet visor down when I was driving my scooter, because my weak Canadian eyes couldn't handle to dust, but now I just wear a half helmet because it is almost impossible to see and hear with a full helmet, especially at night. -Caleb

I am Techie from India & I have multiple startups in developing few of the complex projects in AI & ML. And when I got to know about Tesla Autopilot features few years back, no wonder, till today I discuss about *Tesla on Indian Roads* with my colleagues or friends. In those discussions, one point I always notices is ---- *If TESLA can pull it's AI/ML based fully functional Autopilot feature in India, then ELON will be considered as GOD here* And it's not exaggeration, that's absolutely TRUE. That technology will really be an engineering marvel of all; which I hope it happens soon, bcoz you know its ELON MUSK over there you humankind & he is kind of an ALIEN who can pull anything if it's Challenging to him. If that happens, most of Indians start buying Tesla's which is one way a huge market, and rest others car owners also tend to shift to Tesla gradually. If such happens, the same Jeff Bezos thing repeats like you know where Amazon & Bezos market value stands before & after entering to Indian market right...!?! Business in India is all about population & number game. Like it depends on selling one item with a profit of 10$ for 10-people make 100$... Or else sellling one item with a profit of just 1$ for 100-people makes 100$... That's the Buss-model what most works in India bcoz imagine running 10-Tesla Cars in a same street bcoz of taking high profits less business -;- And now imagine 100-Tesla Cars in that same street bcoz of less profits high business. The same thing what Jeff Bezos Amazon did with Prime Subscription Price in India & rest of the world. And many many more it goes on, if I type more. So stopping it here for now.😁 *And Thanks for making this Video @Celeb* --- it is very well detailed & the mentioning with Indian conversion Values for better understanding to Indians & all others too. I liked that part very much. Appreciate it & subscribed now. 🙏 Like to see much more awesome content as such. 😊
He would rather use his brain power for some thing more meaning ful that really matters. Like going to mars. I don't think selling tesla to India is even in his todo list.
So true! Once they use ML to teach Autopilot how India works, there will be no stopping them from entering other international markets where the roads are equally difficult for AI to predict and understand. -Caleb
Thank you for the sub AlphaGTech, stay tuned for more videos like this one - I always try to keep the making sense gravity on, but I also want to make sure our channel is encouraging and promoting India as well - most of our videos celebrate India, but this is one of the few videos where we discuss some of the less appealing aspects of India. -Caleb

Hi DK, thanks for the comment, and for watching the video! Yes, the population of India has definitely caused some challenges in recent years. But it also makes India globally recognised - everywhere you go in the world, you will find Indian people, and so Indian culture is spread to every country. You can always find an Indian restaurant, you can always see an Indian CEO or executive in every company 🙂 India is having a positive impact on the world, and this wouldn't be the case without India's population I feel. -Caleb

@@backstagewithmillionaires well because of the quality of our country, the capable people try to leave india. Who ever gets an opportunity outside, will take it. If you are capable to find work somewhere else, you deserve a better locality. I personally would leave india, the moment i get an opportunity
What's really killing is a society that takes no responsibility in matters of marriage & careful family planning, and at this point it's way worse crime than terrorism. Reason - more mouths to feed, leads to existing population not getting enough & going hungry esp in rural India.
In short, Tesla's technology is still not capable enough to predict the uncertainties of India's road conditions and the traffics related to it. Its a long way to Improve for Tesla..
Bugatti: we test our cars in Dubai during summer to check the car can withstand the heat. Tesla : should probably test their cars on Indian roads to see the how the software works.🦾
@Neel Javia I'd say such people who think that only emotion nationalistic people are capable of having is to be offended at this video are a wuss. I'd call myself a hyper-nationalist by all figures of speech, but I also am aware of the areas we as a country and people fall short in and do not shy away for admitting it. When people tell "There's a problem" on your face and it's true, the greatest virtue you can exhibit is to accept it and continue to work on whatever ideals you were working on to remove or at least strive to remove that shortcoming. The internet generation however believes in outrage more than building something. Oh, we aren't one, that's for sure. To be a superpower takes a lot of PR. If this was a university, the current government would get 0 grades in PR.
I actually want the Tesla in the thumbnail to be mine one day 😂 that's why I put a Karnataka license plate, and out the Tesla as driving in Ooty! But I won't put the swastika or mala on it of course, as I don't practice Hinduism. -Caleb
@Master Anonymous and the Indian Government too. Elon asked the govt to exempt Tesla from import duties for battery till the time they can build their factory. But it was a straight no because he(our dear PM) wants local companies to come up with EVs
@Master Anonymous 71% of our electricity is produced from non renewable sources of energy (thermal power) plants so we are going to burn more coal for electricity. We don't have a permanant solution for nuclear waste disposal.
Tesla may enter india..but it's sophisticated features are not ready for Indian roads,rash driving,no following of traffic rules...no way autopilot will work here.
I have a feeling that the emergency features will actually make driving in India more difficult. For example, automatic swerving to avoid collision will actually cause some accidents, as I know in India people don't mind driving straight towards each other at full speed, and then missing each other by inches at the very last second. Also, squeezing through traffic with your mirrors up is a way of life here - Tesla will be beeping and trying to avoid collisions in such scenarios. In a way, Indian drivers are the most talented in the world - they keep calm in situations where people from countries like the United States or Canada would be panicking. -Caleb
@@travelholicaditya245 naa, they're still rough, AF... I mean, everything about India sucks, education system, poverty, roads, politics, rapes and many more. But I'll say that, the Indian peoples are very generous and good... Edited:- Until they talk about Anime..
@@backstagewithmillionaires I know it was meant to be a joke but tbh in my city e-rickshaws have outnumbered the tuk-tuk autos a long time ago, and if Tesla decides to produce even the batteries of those vehicles, the profits will be huge!
Your attention to detail in the thumbnail is too good! U nailed it! The prefect Indian new car after being blessed at a temple, a garland, a swastik symbol and that KA registration plate! Awesome.
😂 I'm so glad someone caught all of these details! Also, the landscape behind the Tesla is in India's Western Ghats, one of my favourite regions of India. -Caleb
Damn I've never seen such a detailed video, you not only converted the currency but searched for the metric we use - Crore. The use of accurate maps or just not showing if not accurate, that's crazy. This type of research is not done by Indian Info RU-vidrs as well🙏🙏 Good one.
Thanks a lot of such a wonderful comment Akshat. Considering we are making videos for the Indian audience, it made sense to keep it relatable. Also, we wanted to include international metrics as well in case outsiders were interested in India's startup ecosystem. It does take some extra effort but that is exactly why we are seeing people appreciate our content more and more. Yeah, we might have messed up a bit on the map part but majority of the people have been really supportive in spite of our mistake. But rest assured, we will only continue to improve the quality of our content 🙂 Hope to see your around in the comments section of our future videos as well Akshat. -Varun
Hi Praniel, while I do hope this happens, I highly doubt it will. This is not something that I have seen happening from other luxury brands - the price remains constant (or increased if factors like import tax are at play) most of the time with luxury products, and the company selling the product pockets the difference. But if you know of some examples of the price decreasing, please let me know, I might just be unaware of such examples. Because you're right, labor costs will be quite low in India. -Caleb
@@backstagewithmillionaires Best example is iPhone. Generally Indians pay a 30% premium as import duty. But the recent budget models (SE & XR) which were assembled in India had good price cuts due to local assembly in the Foxcon plant at Chennai. If Tesla can source their assembly parts in India & push their backward integration here, the cost of production will come down to peanuts.
With the level of automation that Tesla has, it might be difficult for labour cost to have much impact. It's because of automation that the cost has gone down to $35k
Backstage With Millionaires . Indian EVs like Nexon have a range of around 312 km with a battery size of 30 kWh and still costs ₹14,00,000. I know that Tesla has a luxurious feel , make super charging stations and have to spend on research and development. But 70,00,000 is a huge sum for most Indians. Autopilot won’t work in India. And Indian EVs price will be coming down as lithium batteries can getting cheaper every year. They will have a hard time competing in India among middle and upper middle classes.
Neel Javia Claimed Range is 320 km for Nexon ev. Check the verdict part of it ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AXhilNcVDmg.html “Behuda se behuda tarike tarike se chala lo 220 km toh de degi “ . Let’s see when 25k dollars car comes into existence.
Bro. Awesome analysis. Don’t be afraid of highlighting negative things about India as long as you have numbers and strong sources to back. Not everything is definitely rosy in India, that’s why we are still a developing country. People who cannot listen negative can definitely skip. You guys are like our voices that should reach to government of India so that they can act fast.
I live in chandigarh....and i will recommend you to check the architecture of chandigarh.......tesla cars are gonna work perfectly in chandigarh. It is like the perfect city for a Tesla.
@Neel Javia I have a theory , We Indians doesnt follow Lanes becasue percantage of lanes marked perfectly ( maybe 1-10% ) . Thats because maintaining marker lanes is expensive even on National Highways . Its both people and system like feedback loop . Road System doesnt work properly due to low funds by Govt. -> low Income Tax payments (2-3% pay tax in india ) its less than people bought new cars bought every year . From 60 years we learn as we Indians doesnt want to pay tax , its best to remove it completely and create new system like add 1-15% transaction cost on every product based on type of product and service while paying similarly like GST. I stuided that in Singapore or Malaysia , every 10%tax on transaction cost collected spent on military . So each and every Percantage should be decided like 1% on Roads , 2% on Police and internal Security , 5% on infrastructure development , ect.,
Indian people are sensible enough to not let their Tesla drive on "normal" roads, most of us will only use autopilot in highways and I'm sure. This will drastically lower down the accident rates on indian highways, so I think Tesla would dominate indian market. And if the import taxes are lowered by any chance, boom, literally every person with a good income will own a Tesla and guess what, the pollution would get lowered down to such great levels. It would also help if tesla also introduces an affordable renewable energy source, it would impact the climate drastically. I really hope that in 2021, the price of tesla does not exceed 60Lakhs after taxes, after that, it would be unaffordable for most of us. And if tesla comes without taxes, which is 21 lakhs in the Indian market, you would see a Tesla literally everywhere.
Ok so after watching this video I learnt two things A) India has charging stations B) Ur thumbnail says u have done an intense true and correct research 😂😅
Hi Akshat, your comment made me laugh 😂! I'm glad you liked the thumbnail. I didn't really put any research into it though, I just copied whatever I have seen in India while driving on my scooter every day lol there are always cars with mala and swastika from pooja. I also almost put chili and lemon under the front bumper, but decided it was too much. -Caleb
Yeah man! That is how I get around Bangalore. I also did something crazy and took a scooter roadtrip once, from Bangalore to Chennai, Chennai to Coimbatore, Coimbatore to Ooty, and Ooty to Bangalore again. -Caleb
Love the amount of research u did on this vdo.. and being an Indian I assure that if Tesla launches it's EV the thumbnail will be coming in real... love the presentation and effort u gave on this vdo.....

The issue lies with Indians who agree to work for peanuts in their initial stage for experience, which for some continues until retirement. It is also impossible to get paid more because it's said that in major cities in India if you throw a stone it either hits a dog or an Engineer.
I think the issue lies with our population explosion, if you ask for an average salary and refuse to work for peanuts, it would take them a few minutes to find someone who would take that job!
Pooja Srivastava you seem like one of the few fellow South Asians like myself to admit the truth. Thank You for not having a biased perspective....unlike others here you aren’t too focused on the job title or the abundance of so called “scholars” in every corner. All people are of value, even that dog that is used in the analogy as an inferior being. This focus on survival of the fittest via academic achievement is the culprit...people there need to showcase their intelligence via solutions to the endless issues...not by shouting we have genius all over yarr...freakin self centered/overprotected fools.
@@movingforwardwithahad317 The word dog is used literally in the above statement.The statement shows the abundance of engineers.The supply of engineers is more than demand.
Demand for services have also grown as a result of over population...so why aren’t these engineers evolving to address those concerns, if they really are that good at problems solving? This is the question that should be answered, not an evaluation of my interpretation of a statement that in my opinion is not relevant.

Have you ever heard of Indian government’s mission of “MAKE IN INDIA” its because of this mission the duties are 100%. Government wants MNC to invest & build their factories here in India(as the name itself suggests MAKE IN INDIA) So, fingers crossed 🤞 & we as Indians will glad if Tesla set up its factory in India 🇮🇳.
Hi Kanik, yes I came across Make In India quite a bit while creating this video (although I had heard about it before this, as I cover the weekly Indian startup news), and I completely understand why the Indian government has decided to set these duties at 100%. Even I don't want to see Tesla come in and dominate and monopolize India's EV market. At the same time though, as per Elon Musk's tweet, it is this 100% tax that has actually prevented Tesla from setting up a factory here in India - as per their company policy, they don't build factories until they've made enough from selling Teslas in the country where the factory would be located. I guess in a way, if they can sell enough Teslas to pay for a factory, then they know without any doubt that the factory is a worthwhile investment. However, I do hope that either the government or Tesla as a company decides to change their policies so that a factory is built in India soon! -Caleb

Hi Gurjant, charging stations are certainly an issue, and yes, as I said in the video, as long as Tesla sticks to the metros, price won't be an issue - there are a lot of wealthy people in India who are excited to own a Tesla. But I think the biggest issue, as I said in the video, is the 100% import tax. This is arguably the only reason why Tesla hasn't entered India. -Caleb
@@backstagewithmillionaires the only solution for is to establish a manufacturing factory and reduce the dependency on imports. Cause i personally think govt. policies are really fucked up here and require a lot of changes to work efficiently in future
Facts. We were planning on buying a mg ev but then we didn't because we like to go on long trips that are 360 km+. There are no charging stations except the one which you have at your house. So we bought a fortuner instead.
Hi Bhavya, thank you for the comment - please don't take offense at me disagreeing with you and Abhishek, but I honestly feel that the same situation exists everywhere that Teslas are available. For the time being, most high-quality EVs are more expensive than petrol/diesel vehicles in the same price range, even after you factor in cost savings from subsidies and lifetime fuel consumption vs. lifetime electricity consumption. That being said, I do agree with you about needing a stronger reason to switch. In the United States, a lot of the people who are buying Teslas are doing so because they want to feel good about themselves and they want to feel that they are helping the earth by slowing global warming. But in India, people are much more price-conscious, and I think also here in India people are a bit more desensitized to the whole global warming thing. It can be 45°C in Delhi, the air is unbreathable due to air pollution, but people will still chose the A3 over the Model 3. And I guess the only way to fix this is to make EVs cheaper than petrol/diesel cars. -Caleb

Ites really a well researched video. As an indian, I must say that I have no choice but to agree with most of the points and facts mentioned by you. I wish Tesla could setup factories in India soon instead of just thinking about making profit by exporting and selling their products here. Tesla needs to embrace India as their own if they ever wanna do well here. That's the way India's trade policies are designed. Tesla needs to understand the worth of India with one fifth of the world's population. They need to create jobs here and share their profit with the people, and in return they will empower Tesla even further. Just look at the way TATA does its business, it's sustainable as it is for mutual benefit of both parties. The world needs to become one now, and only businesses can do that with their policy change, as there is no more room for exploitation, the world has ran out of resources.

There is reason for that!! TESLA ALREADY HAVE a factory in CHINA which Covers the exports of majority of ASIA so there is no need to setup a factory in india because it will make no sense to tesla because china factory is getting work done! They better not come to india or if they, then people should stop crying about it being expensive..... People are being sentimental here with local manufacturer like tata and Mahindra no chance these giants will be making electric infrastructure for india.. And if they choose to it will be a veryyyyy long and hefty thing to do for them because from start these companies were meant to make good ICE cars and we can see they have their main focus on combustion cars but tesla were meant to make electric cars from the start... Indian companies are just crying because of tesla because their products doesn't meet that standard which tesla is already giving from years.. If we need to progress we need better products people deserve better same goes with everything.. I don't see people supporting Bollywood, we accepted that Bollywood cannot meet standards of Hollywood.... But sometimes our sentimental patriotism just Hits and we stop accepting the truth and start over things that will not even make a better impact on this country!
Okay so according to analysis Tesla won't come in every City but can come in Metropolitan Cities like Mumbai Delhi Banglore Hyderabad Chennai.. And for safety Auto Pilot can be disabled and can be adjusted with little decrement in price And Really Nice Research And Tesla won't come....we have Tata EVs I Strongly feel tax should be decreased and for this Tesla can setup there Manufacturing Units and Giga Factory in India and can do some deal with Government
I know how it feels, I lived in Singapore for past 17 years and whenever I back to India I can't focus while driving, its crazy!! mostly people laugh and get back to normal chaotic life, We have the ability to change but most do not want to change, only possible if government put in place a strict law in place.

I may be here after seeing Gagan's post but first 5 minutes into the video I could see why he shared it. Those are true we cannot deny that in india it's really for any electric station coz there are places who never saw a Jaguar in real life.
Hi Niks, thanks for the kind words 🙂 Gagan sharing our video gave us an amazing boost, and we're very grateful to him for the exposure. Hopefully in the future, maybe 5-10 years from now, India's automotive market will be heavily dominated by EVs. I think that it would be so cool to see thousands of charging stations across the country the way that we see in the United States. -Caleb
It's crazy! I'm not sure where you live Huma, but I once hit a pothole so hard the front panel of my scooter cracked off, so you could see inside my scooter. The plastic which was holding the screws to keep that panel on just cracked and exploded from the impact - I had to go buy another front panel. I hope you weren't seriously injured. -Caleb
what india needs first is the infrastructure to support electric mobility before we think of having EV's on our roads. Not the other way round. Let them think of establishing ev charging points first and then talk about having their cars on the road.
Hi KM Appanna, it seems that you have thought this through, but I'm curious to know why you feel this way. Shouldn't demand dictate supply? I personally feel that charging stations should be build in preparation for the EVs that will be on India's roads in future years, but some would argue the opposite. It's a circular chicken and egg problem. -Caleb
@@backstagewithmillionaires Thank you for replying to my post. But what is the point in having ev's if you cannot charge them . It's because if you look at the way any infrastructure is built in India is exactly the opposite. We make a city but all the infrastructure that is needed to support it comes later and which only puts more pressure on the citizens and the system . I would want a lot of EV charging points to be setup across any city first and support from the government to promote ev's as a sustainable form of transport that would encourage more people to buy such vehicles in the future and make it more economical .
Hi Soham, glad you liked it 😂 I actually made the thumbnail before even writing the script believe it or not. I just had a lightbulb moment and spend half the day working on making the Tesla look Indian, and _then_ did all of the required research and script writing. -Caleb
I mean it's too different in each of the states , I myself am from kerala which is in the south side of india and it's mostly different from lets say mumbai, We rarely have powercuts and I've seen a lot of lanes on the road here but for the most part you are correct , and by the way I'm just speaking from my experience here and it may differ for others , so please don't spread hate. :)
Hi Atom, I appreciate the reasonable, level-headed response! You're right, India is a diverse country with a huge infrastructure quality spectrum. Some areas are highly developed, while others are falling apart and in desperate need of repair. It really just depends on what city/state you're in! -Caleb
We hope the situation gets better too Vinayak. Somehow, I am quite optimistic about the next 10-20 years for India. While there are flaws in India's infrastructure and other areas, it is also a wonderful opportunity for a lot of people, especially the once who are looking to solve problems. It would be amazing to have a few tech companies coming from India that can be as big as Tesla, Google or Apple. :) -Varun
Tesla Model S Indian version. Feature: can Identify potholes and speedbreakers. Do care about lanes but still not. Has Animal recognition, can recognize horses and cows. Autopilot will adjust it speed and even overtake whenever there is a chance. Can say curse words if anyone cutts you off By the way I am an Indian.
I feel like Tesla should launch in cities like: 1.Mumbai 2.Delhi 3.Kolkata 4.Bengalore/Bengaluru 5.Chennai and a few more big cities before going onto small cities/towns(Sorry if the spelling of the cities are wrong) Edit:I forgot to mention that Tesla Autopilot might be a bad idea on Indian roads as they are very bumpy,bad,old.(This is my opinion please dont hate on me)
