The BMW i8 is just as complicated as the EQS, if not more. It requires two people to open the hood without damaging it. Here's some technician training on opening it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxe_b2GRwok
Wow, this was quite something. The fact that the emergency door latches are on the inside only raises many questions, as does the fact that the hood is so unwieldy. It's confusing to me that the hood was designed to be opened by 2 people and also that during "normal" operation it can easily damage the bumper. I realize they don't want people doing it themselves, but even for the mechanic this seems extremely annoying. Serviceability is clearly not a top value for these cars but it seems like it's not even considered at all.
