| > No way I'd trust them. When you crash them or they have a battery fault, the doors lock you inside before the battery catches fire. This matches reports from Tesla users. The cybertruck is specially prone to this sort of design problems. |

| Are there not similar videos of Tesla, or other electric cars doing the exact same thing? |

| There's a mechanical latch release handle integrated into the doors, but they are very much not meant to be used during normal operation and are designed to be inconspicuous. This seems to cause at least some people to fail to operate them during a fast-paced emergency situation. |
