These cars all have manual backups.
The question is how easy is it to use?
Only takes about a half second Google search to find out, it's literally a handle right on the door. Just above the window switches. It's not hidden, obfuscated, covered, or even in a weird spot
Edit: turns out this is only in the M3, the Y, X, And CT are all designed by absolute idiots, and i joined them by not looking into all models
It was a fucking toddler trapped in the car you moron.
It couldn't be opened manually from the outside.
Yes i agree the lack of external manual release is a problem. Wouldn't be hard to put one on the underside of the door frame if it truly must be hidden. Their external door solution appears to be the jumping port in the frunk to get the 12v system alive again. Which is obviously a shit solution.
