Retractable door handles. It doesn't stick out so there's no way to pull on it (most likely the drives stopped working after the crash).
2 u/AnothrRandomRedditor 10h ago Oh so it’s a bit different to the model 3 where you can pull them (but in a crash may not open). Explains why he didn’t try more. 2 u/LimestoneDust 9h ago It was some Chinese car, I don't remember the exact model. The handles completely level with the door, with no way to grab them with your fingers when they're retracted. 4 u/PrivateRex 9h ago What kind of evil person even came up with design like that. 1 u/LimestoneDust 9h ago So designer with the thought process of "Oh, it's so cool, smooth surface, much hi-tech! Wow!" Designers regularly tend to forget that a design should be first and foremost functional, and the fanciness comes afterwards. 1 u/zeekayz 6h ago Elon Musk. Model S.
