I believe they have actuators that opens the door and no longer have a pull handle, so if the actuator went bad I can see this happening. He should have tried the passenger side door.
I would hope they would have some type of fail safe incase the actuator goes bad.

I recently read an article about this happening, and it was because the battery died... Surely it isn't another instance of the same thing happening so soon back to back?

Correct. It's the LEVER on the floor with the DOOR OPENING icon on it. I can understand not knowing to look for it if you're test driving or have never been in a C6, but if you own one, it's pretty ******* obvious. Unless your head is up your ***.
There is also a door release pull in the trunk, in case the battery is dead. The only key lock is located just above the license plate, and there is a release for the door and the fuel filler. Both the floor release and the trunk release are cable operated, so there's no chance of locking yourself IN your car.
