    The Model X had it under a speaker cover. The model 3 didn’t have it listed in the user manual. Fans discovered under a rubber door pocket cover, you could remove a flushed mounted plastic tab and fish out a pull wire to open the door.

    It wasn’t until 2024 that Model 3’s got a door release.

      Idea: in case of emergency the user can download a 400 mb app and after login + otp verification can see where is the emergency door opening tab
