    Yeah the releases in the 3 and Y aren’t too bad. Most people use them by mistake once or twice (and get the warning about window trim).

    The X however is unforgivable. You have to pop off the speaker grills to get to them and then the door also weighs a lot and has to be manually lifted upwards.

      Oh yes, the obvious thing to do when trying to escape a fire.

      No, on the X there is a lever just below the open door button on the front doors. I have seen multiple people use it instead of the button because the button in the front door is less obvious to them then the lever.

        I’m talking about the back doors. But yes. I incorrectly compared the front doors in the 3/Y with the back doors of the X.
