The manual way to open the doors is behind a speaker panel that you have to rip off to pull: https://imgur.com/gallery/jqfdV

It's true that it exists, but its intentionally well-hidden, and if you were in a flaming car you probably wouldn't think to rip off the speakers to try to find a latch.

It's in a stupid and inaccessible spot. The position should be made more obvious in future iterations of the vehicle.
