Nah, because otherwise it would be pretty easy to find ways to short out the battery, blow a fuse and open the car. This can happen on any vehicle which uses electronic locks and isn’t really unique to Tesla. The difference is that Tesla has no physical backup key (I’m not sure if anyone else had dropped the physical backup), but it does have an external jump point you can use to provide 12v.
There are physical overrides on the inside though.
Yea I was thinking they’d want it to fail open specifically because of the lack of physical key mechanism but I see your point. Especially given your comment about the physical overrides on the inside.
