Comment on China Is Banning Tesla-Style Retractable Door Handles Over Safety Concerns

Give that to a team of 90’s Honda engineers and they’d have it done by lunch with a price tag a 1/3rd of the Tesla mechanism.

Oh those Honda engineers would have laughed and laughed. “Aluminum chassis and plastic body support?!” I can hear them say through hysterics.
