A recent accident in Tamil Nadu, captured on video, has raised critical questions about the safety of the Tata Harrier EV’s summon mode. The footage reveals a new Harrier EV involved in an incident where a pedestrian was struck while attempting to board the vehicle. The car was reportedly either malfunctioning or utilizing its summon mode, a feature that enables the car to move autonomously at low speeds. The individual involved suffered a critical head injury and later succumbed to their injuries. While details are still being investigated, the question of whether the incident was a result of a technical failure or user error remains unanswered. Tata has not released any official comment on the matter. The event has ignited discussions regarding the responsible use of semi-autonomous features, particularly given the driving conditions in India.
