Yeah, it's hard. How is it going to come out while there's nothing to grab on to?
E: I dunno who's downvoting me or why. I'm vehemently opposed to electronic door handles of any kind. But if you're going to have door handles that protrude and retract, they're gonna have to necessarily have a motor to push out against ice.
You press on it, tons of Chinese cars already do this.
How does it come out when you press on it?
With a fucking spring.

Fucking springs can expand and contract.
