They're more/less in the place you would expect them to be but they're blended in with the rest of the door. You have to pull up on the thing in front of the window button.

I'm sorry... They actually have handles all this time? So WTF?
Only in the front, unfortunately. Somehow there are way too many Tesla owners who don't know about them. The back seat is another story. There IS a mechanical release under the rubber liner in the door pocket. You have to pull the liner out and pull on a steel cable to open it. Some people have cut holed in the liner and added little handles to get around this put it's still a huge oversight by Tesla IMO.
Imagine trying to do that shit while on fire, and the car is upsidedown and full of smoke..
Exactly. Not sure how they got away with that
Imagine trying to do that in any car with the child lock on - something that has been in cars for decades.
Yes, and they are so conspicuous, about 90% of passengers use them instead of the button until briefed otherwise.
That's the actual lever? In that case that's uh actually pretty obvious.
Really? Because I have 15 people who burned to death because it isn't.
That's not where people look for door handles. It's not marked. It doesn't stand out in any way. It's obvious only if you already know it's there. Otherwise it's a death trap.
I agree and yet someone downvoted many of my comments in this thread.
I only see 1 of your comments with a downvote.

Oh neat, TIL! IDK, maybe someone took back some upvotes? Number go down
I thought so too. Slightly less obvious for the driver side. See my other comment about the back seat though.

Same thing in front of the window buttons? Still obvious enough.
On that side it isn't obvious at all. It blend in with the window buttons and looks like it is just a plastic panel. A design flourish or convenience, not a functional lever.
Yeah... Some people really are not observant and car manufacturers need to cater to those people as well.
