There are some - albeit few - cars that tick most of this checklist. MZS5 EV[1] checks most except the physical buttons, which is a half tick. There’s some physical buttons for some important things, but could do better. The previous model of had more buttons but essentially the same checklist-wise. 1. https://mgmotor.com.au/pages/mg-s5-ev |

1. (Maybe) The door handles protrude like God intended, and it is obvious what you are supposed to do since there is an impossible to miss button.
However, the button only unlocks the door if you have the key fob, and sometimes it can take a couple pressed for it to work, so that might disqualify it.
If you want to unlock it without that key fob (and without using the app) there is a physical key, but the keyhole is behind a cover that is not obvious.
2. Yes to physical door opening mechanism.
3. Yes to door handle affordances.
4. Yes to physical charge port mechanism. Simple push to open latch mechanism, which is the only way to open it.
5-10. Yes to turn signal stalk, physical controls on steering wheel, physical temperature and fan controls, physical are flow and direction controls, and physical glove box opening mechanism.
11-13. Yes to rearview mirror, rear window, and side-view mirrors.
It is basically the same as a non-EV Kona at the same trim level except for things that have to be different.
