minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish17•2 days agoTesla isn’t the only manufacturer of doors with frameless windows. They are the only ones I know of who have electric-only door latches. The computer can have the window cracked before the handle is fully pulled. And if it fails to do so, the door opens anyway. A better solution is a fucking window frame.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish6•2 days agoMy car has frameless windows. But they don’t need the window to be in any particular place. Literally 100% up or down, and the door works fine. I don’t understand why they designed cars that have this problem. But yeah, framed windows work great too.
