In some review of a super cheap Chinese car people kept endlessly repeating how it had real buttons on the dashboard.The doors had electric locks which I thought was disappointing.
Imagine a car door that can be opened after an accident or windows that can be cranked open manually when submerged. Must be awesome if you are locked in a box slowly filling with water.
Maybe car makers should offer it as an extra feature. They could charge extra money for something cheaper.

I think there was sometime that drowned that was, Angela Chao, sister of former U.S. Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao. She backed into the lake or pond with her Tesla and was trapped.I think that the Scout brand of trucks may also return to everything manual. They are supposed to be targeting cost.
