I know how to use my car. That is not a "manual latch". It is exactly what I described in the comment you just replied to. Learn how to read.
It’s a manual override to open the hood for when the battery is out. The whole point of the article/thread is that people think there isn’t one when there clearly is.
You don’t need a key because you can replace the battery without one even if the car is dead.
