This happened in Toronto on October 24th
Many people in my Tesla have janked the emergency handle, rather than clicking the button to get out without any emergency, there isn’t any Door handle, there is the emergency handle… Which kinda proves my point and your outrage comment proves you haven’t even been in a Tesla yet comment on “it’s bad design”.
Same kind of comments from people against seatbelts when they were introduced. “It’s not the standard and people will burn in their cars” without seeing or trying a seatbelt.
It very much is because it’s a Tesla because my point about Tesla not being the only car which use electric windows control pre opening the door. Yet people hating on “EV needs power to get out” failing to realise that many Gas powered vehicles require the same thing. Some even implemented explosives that need to push the door off to be able to get out.

That might be true for the front seat, but what about the back? I doubt you’d have 4 passengers all up front with you in the passenger seat.
I’ve never been in a Tesla, but according to the owner’s manual the emergency release for the back seat is a cable behind a hidden panel, and not all models actually have that hidden panel.
Sweet, what about back seat folks?
Also those other cars have easier ways of getting out in event for a power failure, not having to open a separate hidden compartment and pull a cable.
I’ve been in Teslas and I’m not going to buy one. My used 2009 Mazda 3 has better build quality than the brand new Teslas. Silly AF
Good to know this isn’t about fuckcars at all, it’s about fuck Tesla and changes to upset the Gas industry.
Good to know as I’d rather enjoyed Lemmy but if it’s a Russia, Saudi and US lobby pushing their agenda here, ohh well
What the hell are you on about? Seatbelts were introduced to SAVE lives, removing handles was done to look cool.
