According to many media reports, Electric Vehicle (EV) manufacturer Tesla is expected to establish a manufacturing facility in Gujarat next year and expand into India.
Sanand, Becharaji, and Dholera are rumoured to be potential locations for Tesla's manufacturing facility. Due to their proximity to Gujarat's Kandla-Mundra port, places like Sanand could see an increase in exports from the EV manufacturer.
Gujarat Health Minister Rushikesh Patel was upbeat about Elon Musk's investment in the state during a recent Cabinet session. During the address, he drew a link between the state's awareness and alignment with Tesla’s overarching goals.
In past Indian EV manufacturers, like Tata Motors and M&M, questioned why Tesla should receive any preferential treatment considering that they are currently producing cars and electric vehicles in India.
It is expected that the announcement of Tesla's manufacturing facility in the state will be made at the upcoming Vibrant Gujarat Summit, which is set for next month.
