Abstract: A wheeled automotive vehicle including a body structure, including a driver compartment and including an opening into the compartment. A door is cooperatively dimensioned and configured to close the opening, the opening being formed by portions of the body structure at the front and rear side of the opening. A hinge is pivotably holding the door, in a first position, at one of the front and rear side of the opening. A guide system is provided along a lower portion of the door on the same side of the opening as the hinge. During opening, the door is maneuverable upwardly along the guide system until it reaches the first position. From the first position, the door is pivotally movable around an axis, propagating in the transverse direction of the vehicle, and in a direction away from the opening.

Abstract: A wheeled automotive vehicle is disclosed including a vehicle body structure, including a driver compartment and including an opening into the compartment, and a central body cooperatively dimensioned and configured to close the opening, the opening being formed by portions of the body structure. The central body includes a side panel articulately arranged to portions of the central body by the opening along a lengthwise propagation of said vehicle body structure. The central body is pivotally arranged relative to an axis propagating in the transverse direction of the vehicle body structure for enabling pivotal movement upwards and away from the opening during opening movement. Furthermore, a method is disclosed for handling opening and closing of such door opening system.
