> Cars sold in China will be required to have mechanical release both on the inside and outside ... The crackdown follows several high-profile incidents, including two fiery Xiaomi Corp.

I'm not sure the "hidden door handles" in the title comes from. Tesla's handle is banned because it's purely electronic, but I would not call it hidden.
- Arrowmaster 9mo agoSome Tesla models have backup manual releases on the inside that are hidden behind panels you have to remove. I believe one of the manuals even says you should inform all passengers of the location of the emergency manual releases, because well they are hidden and you wouldn't know where to find them without instructions.
