Default Allow car lock with transmission in Neutral

I have a 2015 V40 Powershift and I would like to be able to lock the car with the transmission in Neutral.

I know I can shut off the car by pressing twice the Start/Stop but then I cannot lock the car.

I also have a motorcycle parked between my car and the neighbour's car. In the morning, if my neighbour's car is still there, I need to push my car a little to be able to leave with the motorcycle, and having to unlock the car, start it cold and move it 2 meters Is what I want to avoid.

Does anyone know how to achieve this, if possible?

Thank you.

California people call it “Mexican overdrive”. People do it downhill shift to neutral to save gas.
