No, The Tata Sierra Didn't Crash On The First Day [Video]
If you are someone who likes cars and have been scrolling on social media platforms watching short videos, most likely you have seen the video of India's first crashed Tata Sierra. Now, there are a lot of people who have reshared this video highlighting the build quality of the newly launched Sierra. We have to inform them and all others that the video that is circulating on the internet is not a real video. Yes, you heard that right.
The video showing the Tata Sierra crashed on the road has been shared on YouTube by Facts Mastic on their channel. It starts off with a man showing an Andaman Adventure yellow-colored Tata Sierra crashed and then parked on the side of a road. In the short clip, the person mentions that they were test driving the car on the road when they suddenly missed braking.
As a result, the Sierra crashed into a car that was on the road. And due to this, the front left portion of the vehicle has been destroyed. We can note that the front grille, connected LED DRL, and left-side headlight have been damaged. Additionally, the front bumper from the left side, lower grille, and skid plate have been damaged as well.
A lot of people on the internet have seen this video and are convinced that this particular accident has really taken place. However, we are here to clarify that this video is actually a very high-quality Artificial Intelligence (AI)-generated video. The main purpose of this video is to garner attention from users online as the Sierra is currently the most popular SUV in the mid-size SUV segment.
Anything that is being shared about the Tata Sierra is becoming viral, and the creator has managed to use this same for getting views and subscribers. So far, the test drives of the Tata Sierra have only been done by the media outlets, and public test drives will commence later. Currently, the company has started dispatching the display models to the dealerships across the country.
A lot of viewers who have seen the above-shown Tata Sierra crash video managed to note that it is an AI-generated video. However, there are still a lot of people who are unable to distinguish it as an AI video. As a result, a lot of such people have believed that this after-crash result is true. For such people, we want to give the advice that you should never believe everything that is shown on social media platforms.
In this particular scenario, the impact of the viral AI video is not much. However, over the years, the advancements in AI have resulted in the creation of many deep fake videos which have easily misled a lot of people. So, if you also come across any such video on the internet, first make sure to collect all the facts and figures before making a firm belief.
Recently, Tata Motors shocked everyone by showing a unique crash test video. During the launch event, Tata Motors showed a clip in which two Sierras crashed into each other to show the real-life impact of an accident. The actual results from BNCAP for Sierra will be released later. Most likely, it will be able to achieve a 5-star safety rating in the BNCAP.
In terms of safety features, the Tata Sierra gets Level 2 ADAS, multiple airbags, ESC, ABS, and EBD along with a blind spot monitoring system and many other safety features.
