What if your incapacitated and access must come from an outside first responder?
This thread begins with this comment from the poster: "Another great design decision. Make doors that can't unlock manually."
THAT STATEMENT IS FALSE. According to autoblog.com, the doors do unlock manually from the inside if you just pull the lever all the way.
As for permitting a locked car to be unlocked from the outside, that would defeat the purpose of the locks. A first responder should break a window.

The interior mechanism is essentially a traditional-style door release pull with two stops. The first stop triggers an electronic door release, and opens the door. Open to full extension, and a mechanical door release operates, even if there's a loss of power — it isn't confusing to operate.
