RE: [DML] A Tesla Gullwing? Model X. Count me in!

["Jon Heese" <jonheese@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think Nick's point here (and I'd tend to agree with him) is that having a door that only needs X inches of side clearance is pointless when X is less than the width of a human body.
 
IOW, just because your door needs 0" of side clearance doesn't mean you can park 0" from the cars on either side.
 
Regards,
Jon Heese

I seem to recall a BMW that had doors that dropped down into the sill.  And it's
hard to beat any minivan with sliding cargo doors...

"... "falcon wing" doors...that requires less horizontal space than
typical gull-wing doors". You can't get less than the 13" required for
the DeLorean.
