Tunisia Telegraph: Are Chinese and electric cars in Tunisia affected by door handle recall risk
The Chinese authorities have announced the largest recall campaign in the country's history, involving approximately 4.3 million vehicles, due to concerns about difficulty opening doors in emergencies caused by electronic hidden door handles. The campaign concerns vehicles from companies such as Tesla, Xiaomi, and Chery, where hidden door handles can cause problems after a loss of electrical power, making it difficult for passengers to open the doors and hindering rescue efforts. New regulations will come into force in China in January 2027, requiring the installation of easy-to-use mechanical systems for opening doors, reflecting a trend toward phasing out hidden handles. As Chinese cars and electric vehicles continue to enter the Tunisian market, this issue remains important, especially since the share of Chinese brands reached 22.5% of the Tunisian car market in the first quarter of 2026. Ensuring that the models available in Tunisia comply with the new safety standards will require monitoring the numbers and types of vehicles.
