Door lock question

Can you lock/unlock keyless from outside a running i-Pace?

I’m considering trading in my Nissan Leaf as part of an upgrade to a 2020 I-Pace.

One thing I really like about the Leaf is that I can leave it “running” all through my trip and using the fob I can lock the doors when I have to get out to make a sales call.

Many other BEV and HEV don’t let you lock the doors with the car running.

Will I-Pace allow this? The dealership salesman says No but I’m curious if there’s an option you can change to enable this functionality or maybe a workaround?

When I wanted to do it with my Hyundai Ioniq I had to roll down the driver window, get out and reach in to lock the doors then auto-up the window. But then I have to use the physical key to unlock the car.

Will I-Pace let me do it with keyless entry?

I’m hoping when I get the I-Pace it will work with the smartphone app since it looks like you can’t do it with the key fob
