After Kerala’s Elephant Rock, Harrier.EV passes dangerous Beas River of Himachal
In a collaboration with Red Bull India, the Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd (TMPVL) has released a video of its Tata Harrier EV crossing the turbulent Beas River as a showcase of the car’s extreme terrain compatibility. The Harrier.ev demonstrated its strong off-road capabilities, dependable engineering, and dominating presence by navigating the river downstream from the Pong Dam.
Red Bull driver Abdo "Dado" Feghali successfully drove the SUV in its range-topping QWD guise with a dual-motor all-wheel-drive configuration and motors on both axles. There were three stages to the challenge: crossing a rocky riverbank, navigating deep but calm backwaters, and facing swift currents. Red Bull driver Abdo "Dado" Feghali was behind the wheel.
Earlier, the collaboration has also performed an uphill challenge where the Harrier.EV was seen climbing up th the Elephant Rock of Kerala, situated at an elevation of 3,937 feet. Despite concerns shown by locals about the danger, Dr Fahed drove the EV up the jagged rocks, loose boulders, and even a 34-degree incline, NDTV reported.
