A disturbing video from Tamil Nadu has captured a fatal accident involving a new Tata Harrier EV. The vehicle is believed to have either been in summon mode or experienced a malfunction, leading to a collision with a passenger attempting to board the car. The Reddit post highlights that the victim suffered a critical head injury, resulting in their death. The summon mode allows the vehicle to move autonomously at low speeds. The circumstances surrounding the accident are still being investigated to determine whether a technical issue or user error was the primary factor. There has been no reported legal action. The Harrier EV, which includes driver-assist technologies and summon functionality, is at the center of this incident. Video evidence suggests the car’s hazard lights were on before it moved. Tata Motors has not yet provided a public response to the event. The incident has prompted a wider debate regarding the safety of semi-autonomous features, such as ADAS and summon, and their suitability for the Indian road environment.
