Susulan beberapa insiden maut, China haramkan pemegang pintu tersembunyi EV

Beijing: China menjadi negara pertama yang mengharamkan penggunaan pemegang pintu tersembunyi pada kenderaan elektrik (EV), sekali gus menamatkan reka bentuk kontroversi yang dipopularkan oleh dipopularkan oleh bilionair Elon Musk melalui Tesla, lapor BBC.

Langkah itu diambil ketika EV berdepan penelitian ketat badan pemantau keselamatan global susulan beberapa insiden maut, termasuk dua kemalangan maut di China membabitkan EV Xiaomi yang disyaki berpunca daripada kegagalan bekalan kuasa sehingga pintu tidak dapat dibuka.

Menurut media kerajaan, peraturan baharu itu hanya membenarkan penjualan kereta yang mempunyai mekanisme pembuka pintu secara mekanikal di bahagian dalam dan luar pintu.

Difahamkan, peraturan berkenaan dijadualkan berkuat kuasa pada 1 Januari 2027.

Dalam pada itu, Kementerian Industri dan Teknologi Maklumat China mewajibkan, bahagian luar setiap pintu penumpang kecuali ruang simpanan bagasi mempunyai ruang ceruk sekurang-kurangnya enam sentimeter (sm) x dua sm x 2.5 sm bagi membolehkan akses kepada pemegang pintu.

Di bahagian dalam kenderaan pula, tanda bersaiz minimum satu sm x 0.7 sm perlu dipaparkan bagi menunjukkan cara membuka pintu.

Kenderaan yang sudah mendapat kelulusan pihak berkuasa dan berada di peringkat akhir untuk memasuki pasaran China akan diberikan tempoh tambahan selama dua tahun untuk mengemas kini reka bentuk.

Pemegang pintu tersembunyi digunakan secara meluas dalam pasaran kenderaan tenaga baharu (NEV) China yang merangkumi EV, kenderaan hibrid dan kenderaan berkuasa sel bahan api.

Menurut data daripada media tempatan, ia digunakan pada kira-kira 60 peratus daripada 100 model NEV terlaris.

Walaupun peraturan itu hanya terpakai kepada model yang dijual di China, kedudukan negara itu yang besar dalam industri automotif global dijangka memberi kesan meluas di peringkat antarabangsa.

Sementara itu, pemegang pintu Tesla kini disiasat oleh pengawal selia keselamatan di Amerika Syarikat (AS), manakala pihak berkuasa Eropah turut mempertimbangkan peraturan serupa.

Finally, this has come to light. For years, hidden or retractable door handles were sold as futuristic, sleek and aerodynamic. In recent years, these have become highly popular in high-end (read: premium) and fully electric (EV) offerings.

In reality, few drivers ever liked them, and engineers quietly questioned whether the promised efficiency gains were worth the risks. Now, regulators in China are preparing to draw the line, with plans to ban fully retractable door handles altogether.

According to a report by CarNewsChina, discussions are already underway for new standards that would outlaw this design feature. Semi-retractable and conventional handles will still be allowed, but only if they include mechanical redundancy that are guaranteed to work and function in emergencies.

A draft regulation is expected to be finalised this month, with a one-year transition period. If approved, enforcement would begin in July 2027, meaning no new cars sold in China could feature fully hidden handles after that date.

The move would end one of the most recognisable styling trends of the new energy vehicle (NEV) era. Originally marketed as aerodynamic breakthroughs, retractable handles barely deliver on their promise.

In fact, engineers reportedly calculate that even under optimal conditions, the drag reduction amounts to just 0.005–0.01 Cd, resulting in negligible ‘savings’ of up to 0.6 kWh/100 km. Worse, the e-motors and support structures for this feature adds up to 8 kg of weight, often cancelling out the aforementioned gains.

If the efficiency benefits are marginal, the downsides are not. These handles cost about three times more than mechanical ones and fail at rates up to eight times higher. One major EV brand admitted that broken door handles account for 12% of all repair cases, often requiring complete replacements.

Insurance and crash test data paint an even bleaker picture: hidden handles malfunction in accidents, freeze in cold climates, short-circuit in heavy rain, and trap occupants during emergencies.

The safety consequences are severe. In 2024, crash tests by the China Insurance Automotive Safety Index found electronic door handles only managed a 67% success rate in side-impact pop-outs, compared with 98% for mechanical designs.

The National Accident In-depth Investigation System reported a 47% increase in incidents caused by handle failures last year, with hidden handles responsible for more than four out of five of those cases. Even children have suffered injuries, with the Consumer Association logging a 132% rise in finger-pinch incidents, including broken bones.

Within the automotive industry, some brands are steering clear of this. Volkswagen has stuck to semi-retractable designs. Audi has engineered emergency pull cords into its new models. GWM’s chairman Wei Jianjun has been openly scathing, calling the feature heavy, unsafe and pointless for aerodynamics.

China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) began revising national safety standards in May, specifically to address the risks.

Door handles are only the first target. Broader concerns are mounting over the industry’s obsession with design gimmicks such as touchscreen-only controls, panoramic roofs, and electronic mirrors that often compromise usability and safety.

Moreover, China is not alone in pushing back this feature. From 2026, Euro NCAP will deny its coveted five-star ratings to vehicles that hide critical functions like hazard lights, wipers and horns inside the infotainment unit.

The message is clear: convenience, safety and common sense must come before design theatre. The ban, if finalised, will close the chapter on one of the industry’s most divisive fads.

Quote prettyuglybabe 5-2-2026 11:00 AM: i tak berkenan ev sebab handle ni la..
masa lock memang cantik..
tapi kalu tak lock terjojol keluar..
pada i mcm tak safe kalau kita tak lock orang tau kereta tak lock
