There isn't a chance that a vehicle with those kinds of thrusters would ever be road legal

Tesla sold a car for years with no way to open the back seat doors in the event of an emergency.

US regulators allow Tesla to do anything.

There is a way. Not practical, but if you pry off the speaker cover, there is a release cable.

I blame regulators.

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.

Strange. Maybe it's a Europe thing, but my 2020(?) M3 has a little mechanical lever you can pull to open.

E: both front and back like nop'a 2018 model 3 in the response below

In the front seats, right? Everyone (even I agree rightfully so) got mad about the rear passengers not having one.

My 2018 has them on the front and rear. I love that car. I wish Elon want a Nazi because I wouldn't have the shit EV I bought when my wife took over the Tesla.

A car that maybe you (or your passengers) can't get out of and might die is different from a car that's basically a bomb on wheels.
