Because the well-known Chinese media objectively made their own remarks, the Indian media were quite dissatisfied.
Regarding the cooperation between Tesla and India, the Indian media expressed great confidence in this and did not agree with the statements of the Chinese media.
But in fact, India doesn't even have a place to charge new energy vehicles, and I really don't know where the courage comes from.
India and China may be similar only in that both are populous countries, right?
India has always had an extraordinary level of self-confidence, especially in the manufacturing sector.
India has a strong competitive spirit, and even India is reluctant to admit its shortcomings in some areas where it is not good at.
Whether it's chips, mobile phones, or cars, there is nothing particularly good about India.
If you rely on India's own technology to build a car, it is difficult to imagine what kind of "beautiful" picture it is.
Tesla previously announced that it would invest in India's car manufacturing, is this vision unrealistic?
In the field of automobile import and export trade, India has always had a high tax revenue.
This is one of the reasons why its automotive industry is lagging behind, and many foreign companies have simply chosen not to do business with India.
Unless any car company is willing to contract production to India, it will not go far.
However, the local market development in India is very low, and if it can successfully enter the Indian market, the profit will be unimaginable.
Obviously, Musk has seen this for a long time, so cooperation with India is also a matter of time.
India itself knows that this is an unprecedented opportunity, and the government is actively agreeing to it.
For this reason, the Indian government has deliberately optimized a number of relevant policies, such as the import tax of many car companies.
This is actually to show Tesla's sincerity in order to make the two sides cooperate as soon as possible.
Tesla's global influence is also undoubted, and it can be seen that India really wants to eat this bowl of rice.
After all, it is a large country with a large population, and the efficiency of creation is still guaranteed, but India has also rejected many foreign car companies before.
If the other party is not Tesla this time, then I am afraid that the Indian government will have to maintain its usual "high profile".
But can India's strength really put them on the road to car manufacturing?
At this stage, India's urban transportation environment is not ideal, and it can even be said to be dilapidated.
Not to mention the development of the automobile industry, let's first solve the problem of urban road conditions in China.
Moreover, although India's labor force is very high, at the same time, the shortcomings are also obvious, that is, the lack of technical strength.
The road to building a car is not just a matter of many, in the final analysis, this is still a technical job, and it is not possible to use brute force alone.
Based on past experience, the idea of Tesla's entry into India is somewhat unrealistic.
In fact, referring to the domestic automobile environment, it can be seen that Tesla has to face many problems in order to survive in India.
China's new energy vehicle industry is among the best in the world, accounting for a large part of global sales.
Whether it is market acceptance or the conditions for the use of electric vehicles, China is much better than India.
But looking at Tesla's living environment in China today, it cannot be said to be particularly stable.
On the other hand, the development of India's new energy vehicle industry is very different from China.
Whether it is national policy, mass consumption power, or the use environment of new energy vehicles, India is very backward.
Not to mention whether Tesla can reach cooperation with India, it is estimated that India will have a hard time solving the above problems.
Compared with China, which has better conditions, Tesla does not have a particularly good living environment today, how good can India be?
And India has also learned a lot from the past, and many companies have avoided it.
Whether it is the automobile industry or the mobile phone industry, as long as they have settled in India, there is no good fruit to eat.
Ford is no stranger to everyone, right? Ford has been in India for a long time, but what is the end result?
All kinds of costs are not stingy and actively invested, and Ford's decades of operation have been exchanged for huge losses.
Can Tesla guarantee its own development? It can only be said that it can, but it is very difficult.
So why does Musk still want to bring Tesla to India? It is impossible for him not to know this.
In fact, this is also a helpless move, after all, the development of China's new energy vehicles has also put Musk under pressure.
Therefore, it is very likely that Musk and India are seeking cooperation this time to inhibit the development of new energy vehicles in China.
And he also has absolute confidence in Tesla's technical capabilities, even if the environment in India is so harsh.
Once India's above problems are resolved, its market prospects are still very promising.
Musk has always been a daring person, and the development potential of the Indian market is also the key to attracting him.
Last year, India's auto market achieved a qualitative change in sales, once surpassing other countries to become the third largest in the world.
After all, it is a large country with a large population, and no matter how much it is, it can't stand up to many people, and the market potential is huge.
Although the market environment is not increased, if it is improved, the Indian automotive sector can achieve rapid growth.
And it is not impossible for some new Indian car brands to appear, after all, China is like this.
If the cooperation between Tesla and India is reached, it can be a good way to curb the development of electric vehicles in China.
What Musk needs to do now is to find a good entry point in order to realize his beautiful vision.
But this is only a prospect for the future, and there is still a big gap between China and India in the real world.
If Tesla struggles to survive in China, it won't be much of a good idea to cooperate with India.
While India and China share similar characteristics in many ways, the gap between the two countries is fundamentally different.
It is obvious that India cannot be compared with China in all aspects, except for its population.
Moreover, the development of new energy vehicles is inseparable from the support of electricity, and the level of electricity in India is really not flattering.
A large part of the reason for the booming development of new energy vehicles in China is due to the advantage of electricity.
On the other hand, India often faces the problem of insufficient power supply, which is very fatal to the popularization of new energy vehicles.
It is obvious that the electricity consumption environment of Chinese citizens is not a dimension at all compared to India.
Imagine one day, you buy a new energy vehicle, but face the embarrassing dilemma of not being able to charge it.
This may be difficult to happen at home, but it is not the same in India, which is very likely.
Therefore, the cooperation between India and Tesla can indeed bring many benefits to both parties.
At the same time, there are many problems that need to be faced, and the road to the development of new energy vehicles in India is long and difficult.
Musk still needs to be cautious! What do you think about this? Welcome to leave a message to discuss in the product discussion.
