That was added in this year's model. All previous Model 3's do not have manual release for the rear door. https://youtu.be/Cfk8Erx8Wiw?si=MGK94UX_qavyOuVr
Besides, having manual door open under a hidden panel in the bottom of a door pocket is ridiculous.
Mine is from 2019 and I have to actually tell people in the backseat to use the button and not the handle, because it's so much more prominent.
The previous poster already showed the user manual where the BACKSEAT release is under a hidden panel at the bottom the door pocket.
I showed a video that the 2022 and older model 3 has no manual door release at all.
Again, BACKSEAT. The front seat has an easy access manual door opener.
I don't know what you want me to say, my 2019 Model 3 has a manual door release handle on top of the panel inside the door of the back seat? Maybe it's a EU regulation thing.
Also mine looks nothing like the manual posted. Just to point out, this wasn't a recent addition, there were model 3s with back door manual releases back in 2019.
It's a physical handle? Not a pull string like is shown in the manual? That isn't standard on any 2019 Tesla in Europe.
2019:

2023:
"The new owner's manual for the Europe-bound Model 3 shows that the rear doors are now fitted with an easily accessible manual door release. This is placed at the bottom of the door pocket, under a plastic cover that can be easily removed to access the mechanical release cable. "
