A viral video has documented a fatal accident in Tamil Nadu involving a Tata Harrier EV. The incident appears to have occurred while the vehicle was either in summon mode or experiencing a malfunction. The video shows a person attempting to enter the car when they were struck. This individual received a severe head injury and ultimately died from their injuries. The summon mode allows the car to move on its own at low speeds. The investigation is currently trying to ascertain if the accident was due to a technical malfunction or driver error. The company has not yet issued a formal response. The situation has raised concerns about the reliability of semi-autonomous features in vehicles operating in the complex traffic environments common in India, highlighting the necessity for caution when using such technologies.
