An investigation revealed police were unable to extinguish the flames of a Cybertruck after a crash in Piedmont, trapping three and resulting in their deaths
I’d like to jump in here and point out there is an easy solution to this…
Make a 2 stage handle. 1st stage opens the door with the electronics, pull the handle further to engage the manual override. This is what Ford does in the Mach-E.
So yeah, it’s a shitty design to have the emergency door handle as a separate hidden feature.
Oh yes, I forgot that the exact shape and position of this handle is the exact same on those vehicles as well. None of them are the exact same, that’s the entire point of the complaints.
Did you forget that every car has the exact same mechanism? Pull handle, door opens? On 90%+ of cars?
