List of cars with non-standard door designs

A common door design on Group C, IMSA GTP cars of the 1980s and early 1990s and on any sports prototypes since then, this list does not include cars categorized as such.

This list only includes purpose built race cars.

Sliding doors are common on minivans, leisure activity vehicles, light commercial vehicles and minibuses.

A few passenger cars have notably also been equipped with sliding doors, such as the Peugeot 1007, the Suzuki Alto Slide Slim, the BMW Z1 and the 1954 Kaiser Darrin.

Some cars – generally those of a very open design – have no doors at all.
