In most well-designed cars the doors unlock themselves when you pull on the inside door handle.  VWs have the feature.

Nissan Skylines had this from 1985 R31s at least. Jaguar crowed when
it "discovered" the idea in the 90s. Not a good feature, as you have
to unlock the doors to let passengers out.
