If you own any kind of car with an electronic door release, PLEASE read the manual and learn where the emergency mechanical release is. Tesla Model Y’s front door release is an unmarked tab in front of the window controls. Its rear door release is inconveniently hidden under a panel in the door pocket. You will probably not find these unless you read the manual.

Having said that, these designs are awful and they have killed multiple people. I always point to the Porsche Taycan as the best design in this department: to open the door electronically, pull on the door handle. To open it mechanically, pull on the door handle HARDER. This is the way. https://universeodon.com/@TomWellborn/113472607330092688
