As cars become more like IoT devices on wheels, these nascent technologies would lead to more security issues than a simple key lock mechanism. Just imagine getting locked into a car with glass you can't break (like in cybertruck) and getting asked to pay a ransom to get it unlocked.

If there is no threat of force, just wait the attacker out.

If there is a threat of force (for example, the attacker has a gun), then you would have been just as bad off without some crazy movie-plot attack involving your door locks.

Won’t be a problem as long as you bring along an emergency rock [1].
