    And where are these releases? Are they accessible from the exterior easily like a door handle?

        That’s the first thing I’m going to think of while panicking when trapped in the back seat of a burning car that’s not mine: “pull a tab in the storage area of the door! It’s hidden behind a little patch of fabric, of course!”

          Passenger side has it as well.

          Edit: oh it sounds like you’re wondering what someone outside the car does. They probably do the same thing they’d do for any car with hidden/shaved door handles (not exclusive to Tesla). Bust it open. It’s easy enough that vagrants do it all the time to steal junk.
