We tell you what Suicide Doors means!
Suicide-Doors means:
A suicide door is a vehicle door that can be opened against the usual direction. These suicide doors are even very helpful for getting in and out because the area to get in is significantly larger (the B-pillar is missing in this design) than with normal doors. This construction is called a portal door, as here on the Mazda RX-8. In the tuning area it is very difficult to get the suicide door entered. Removing the existing B-pillar would make the car collapse, so to speak. There are definitely variants that allow suicide doors to be built in and legalized. However, the costs are immense and the requirements on the part of TÜV and co. are to be questioned carefully beforehand.
