Tata Harrier.ev Crosses Beas River in New Red Bull Stunt Video
Tata Motors has released a dramatic new video featuring the Harrier.ev taking on the violent flow of the Beas River in Himachal Pradesh. Shot in collaboration with Red Bull, the stunt puts the dual‑motor AWD Harrier.ev through extreme water‑wading and rocky terrain, proving its capability beyond typical EV expectations.
The Stunt: Challenging the Beas River
The river‑crossing challenge was performed near the Pong Dam area. Professional rally driver Abdo “Dado” Feghali, known for his Guinness World Record drift, drove the Harrier.ev through three tough stages — loose rocks, deep backwater and the high‑current ‘Surge’ zone.
AWD Confidence in an EV
The dual‑motor AWD setup helped maintain traction over slippery riverbed rocks while avoiding wheelspin. With no need for a snorkel, unlike ICE SUVs, the EV’s sealed architecture helped it move through water above wheel height.
Dado even switched to Boost Mode to escape the strongest currents during the final stretch.
Why This Matters
Tata claims the Harrier.ev isn’t just a city EV but a capable lifestyle SUV. This video reinforces:
- Real‑world off‑road strength
- Improved water‑wading ability
- High‑power AWD performance
With growing excitement and sales, the Harrier.ev is emerging as a strong choice for adventure‑focused EV buyers.
Final Take
From viral uphill climbs to river‑crossing challenges, Tata’s latest campaign positions the Harrier.ev as India’s most rugged electric SUV so far. More such stunts may follow as Tata builds confidence in off‑road EV ownership.
