Not possible, Chinese labor is cheaper and they produce 100% of the components locally in china, including batteries and raw materials for the battery.
So I wouldn't be surprised if ex showroom price is 8 lakh in India, due to custom duties on imported content.

If it is launched in India at a price below 8L, it will be a game changer. This could start the revolution of electric vehicles in India just like the way Tesla did it in US.
This vehicle has the combination of looks, VFM and the range which none of the electric vehicles available in India had.
I am eagerly waiting for the launch of this vehicle.

With those limited top speed and range, I don't think many will take these on long road trips anyway. It will be a good city car for many people and with home charging every night they don't need to worry about range.

Keep waiting Renault, keep waiting and keep delivering mediocre cars to the public and not do anything to improve the infrastructure.
