Good luck getting it past side impact standards and having a door light
enough to be suspended by the tiny supports shown on the prototype. The
concept probably has composite doors and weigh next to nothing but won't
come close to meeting standards. The door doesn't seem to have enough front
or rear overlap to keep it in place during side impact.  Then again I'm no
engineer .....but I can spell it!
