Tata Harrier EV Incident Sparks Summon Mode Controversy
A man died after being hit by a Tata Harrier EV.
A video of the event went viral.
The car has a feature called 'Summon Mode' that can move the car without anyone inside, which some believe caused the death.
The car rolled backward, hitting the man while he was trying to stop it.
The car company is investigating what happened and says that the car may have rolled back due to gravity, not because of Summon Mode.
The police are also investigating the event.
