    1. China beats the deplorable Tesla. Musk loses no sleep over fact that some of his cars incinerate the occupants when the doors won’t open and it’s on fire. Another reason the man should be in jail.

      This isn’t good news for a rival electric car company owned by someone whose name rhymes with busk.

      If you go the Hyundai route you can have traditional mechanical door handles that serve the same purpose as the hidden ones

      It makes sense that China banned them first; I can imagine they’d have much more visible problems just because of how popular this type of door handle is there. Much less common in the USA.

      I imagine this will have a global effect since I doubt it’s worth having different lines just with the handles changed

    5. This seems less like innovation and more like China prioritizing fail-safe design. Convenience is nice, but doors should work no matter what.

      Is that really surprising for a country that doesn’t care about the safety of people not in cars?

      Edit: It’s not like a ban on those handles not being implemented in the US first is a new thing. US does not have a huge focus on safety for cars, at least not like the EU (I dunno about China). The EU has many requirements regarding occupants, but also other road users like pedestrians. Car’s hoods should be actively protecting pedestrians in an accident, hoods can only by such high… US does not have this focus, so the headline of China banning them first, should not really be a big surprise.

      Good stuff : one of the reasons I’ve looked away from most EVs since the Tesla 3 is the stupid door handles. It was not so much paranoia about glitches but because I can barely open my mechanical door handle when it freezes over in winter.

      Is this why people just posted a Chinese ev car on fire and the parent unable to open the kids doors?

    9. China beating us on any sort of innovation isn’t surprising anymore, let’s be real

      What type of dogshit tier headline is that?

      Yes this is a good rule, it is not innovation, lol. . . Stop letting AI write for you

    11. There is literally no benefit I can think of in having an electronic door handle. Not one.

      Tesla, Kia, Hyundai, BMW, Audis, Mercedes and 60% of Chinese cars. Again this is not a tesla thing lol. The Lyriq has them too.

    13. How many people have died because of Musk’s insistence on electronic door handles?

    14. Good thing America is rewhiting everything! Nothing spells success more than the people being white! Everything else is fake news, a democrat hoax or some other lame ass dog whistle that gets Republican voters going!

    15. It’s a **regulation**.  There is nothing „innovative“ about mechanical door handles.

      What kind of word mangling exercise are these journalists doing, it’s a safety regulation.
