Tesla Eyes India, Trump Calls Factory Plan "Unfair"—Will Elon Musk Overcome Sky-High EV Tariffs

Tesla Eyes India: Tesla is ramping up its India expansion with plans for showrooms in Mumbai and New Delhi, along with a new recruitment drive. But former U.S. President Donald Trump has called Tesla's potential factory in India "unfair" to the United States, criticizing the country’s 100% import tariffs on electric vehicles. Elon Musk has long argued that these high duties block Tesla's entry into the world's third-largest car market, where domestic automakers like Tata Motors dominate.
