    Not all of them act the same way. We have the hidden handles on our 26 Equinox EV but it still pivots open if you press on the opposite side of pulling to act as a normal handle.

      That’s a similar method to the Tesla Model 3 and Y.

      The S and X had motorized handles that retracted.

      The Cybertruck has no physical handles on the outside. It has a button on the B pillar that activates an electric release to pop the door open.

      All of those methods are flush, but only one isn’t visible to rescuers and can completely fail with a lack of power or motor failure with no physical external backup option.

      “Burned into a charcoal because noone around knew how to sodomize door handle into cooperation.” Would fit well on the tombstone
