Does the Mazda RX8 have suicide doors?
1 Answers
Mazda RX8 features suicide doors. Here are some details about this vehicle: 1. The Mazda RX8 is a sports car manufactured by Japanese automaker Mazda, featuring a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout. It was first unveiled at the 2001 North American International Auto Show and is powered by a rotary engine. 2. The RX8's cabin is designed to accommodate four adults, making it a 4-door, 4-seat sports car. Its rear doors open rearward, a design that completely eliminates the visual presence of B-pillars and provides easier access to the rear seats. 3. To ensure body rigidity, the eliminated B-pillar is reinforced with structural components hidden inside the rear doors. In the event of a side impact, these reinforcements work in conjunction with additional crossbeams installed in the roof and floor to provide passengers with passive safety protection equivalent to conventional vehicle designs.
