Not quite the same. As someone here pointed out, a two-door car with a backseat has front seats designed to fold forward, giving those in back an easier way out. The Model 3 does not (so far as I know) have front folding seats.You can buy this if you want
For all cars with just 2 doors, it's the same problem or even worse, no ?
Except there's already a case in China in which a Model X had that exact scenario happen. The car was involved in a crash (owner claims it was at 47 mph), the Model X electrical system was down and the rear passengers (who had only minor injuries) were not able to exit the vehicle (they did not know about the emergency mechanical release behind the speaker grills).
You have to already know this case would happen. It has to eventually. I'm surprised safety-conscious Tesla would engage in this foolishness. All you could argue is that it costs too much to add a marginal safety increase but that's ridiculous. Having a mechanical release is obviously necessary and arguing against it is rationalization. I'm not going to cancel my Model 3 because it's still a low-probability consideration but it makes 0 sense.
It's too basic a feature and so simple it doesn't compare with airbags. Not being able to get out leads to some very unpleasant ways of dying. Cars going into water isn't exactly uncommon.
But this seems like a basic safety functionality that wouldn't be difficult to include yet is absent.
I wonder if there is still a manual release inside the frunk,One thing I noticed they changed is that the frunk now requires external 12V power to unlatch from outside (unlike in S/X).
In the same vein it is now relatively easy to attach a battery tender (assuming those cables go to the battery).

I am confused about how you would like the doors to function. Do you use 'child safety locks'? Would you want the mechanical door opener to OVERRIDE the child safety locks? Are they of any use at that point? If not, how is the door any different they way Tesla has it?
Thank you kindly.

In case of an accident, fire, jumping into a river.... any doors should be able to be manually open from inside or out sideI am confused about how you would like the doors to function.

Bringing up child door locks is flawed logic. Has nothing to do with mechanical release issue. It's another way you can be stuck in a car - who cares.
