In a recent interview with Fox News' Sean Hannity, U.S. President Donald Trump expressed concerns over Tesla CEO Elon Musk's potential plans to establish a manufacturing facility in India. Trump criticized India's high import tariffs on American-made vehicles, describing them as "very unfair" to the United States. He emphasized that such tariffs make it "impossible" for companies like Tesla to sell cars in India without local production. Musk concurred, noting that India's import duties on automobiles are approximately 100%. Despite these challenges, Tesla has initiated steps to enter the Indian market, including scouting locations for showrooms in New Delhi and Mumbai and posting job openings for mid-level positions. However, Trump's remarks suggest potential policy hurdles for Tesla's expansion plans in India.
