    Wasn’t there a problem with Teslas, that you cannot open the doors when the battery is drained?

    In that case… mission accomplished (somewhat, but slower and more painful)?!

      Every Tesla has an emergency unlock system on all doors. You can always open doors even if the battery is flat.

        Yes, every door has a system similar to a trunk release cord. AFAIK It’s hidden, so if you don’t know it exists, you’re screwed. Good luck getting your children out in an emergency.

          At least in the model 3 the two front door releases aren’t hidden, in my experience quite often the first time people try to open the door from the inside they actually go for the manual release before they notice the button. The back two doors on the other hand yeah that shits hidden. (Disclaimer I got one before Elon went full mask off I have no love for him or Tesla, just happens to be the car I own at the moment)
