Yeah, but the mentally deficient k-addict in charge thinks that's "notncool enough" and wants fancy fly-by-wire doors.

Designing an electronic door handle isn't fancy, it's cheap. Fancy would be a functional mechanical door handle that opens without power under adverse conditions by anyone that has seen a car door built in the last 100 years. Real luxury and good design should be so safe, reliable, and intuitive that you (the user) never have to even think about it
