Learn about the cost of owning Tesla Model Y
At the Switch and Save Carnival, Tesla is presenting a clear breakdown of Model Y ownership costs, designed to show what a premium SUV can cost per month.
Breakdown of Model Y ownership costs.
Down payment
₹6,00,000
Monthly Payment starts at
₹39,990*/month
Savings vs. an ICE car (fuel + maintenance)
₹20,000^/month
Effective cost of ownership of Model Y
₹19,990/month
A Model Y monthly payment of ₹39,990*/month already is in line with a well-equipped petrol SUV. But that’s only half the comparison.
Switching from a petrol or diesel car removes costs that typically go unnoticed: fuel, oil changes, scheduled servicing, and brake wear. Tesla customers save an estimated ₹20,000^every month on fuel and maintenance alone.
Factoring in that saving brings the effective cost of owning a Model Y down to ₹19,990 a month, lower than what many mid-size petrol SUVs cost to run, before even accounting fortheir purchase price.
In short, a ₹19,990 effective monthly ownership cost for Tesla Model Y.
Model Y has near-zero maintenance, meaning fewer workshop visits than an ICE car. No oil changes. No spark plugs. No multi-speed transmission service. Regenerative braking alsotakes wear off the brake pads. Over-the-air updates add features on Tesla Model Y without a dealer visit.
Exchange value on the spot, finance with banking partners in the showroom, and a Wall Connector included.
