Truly this is a wonderful and interesting concept! Now, show me how one of these JaTech disappearing door equipped vehicles fairs out when broadsided by 5,500+ lb SUV. Or after barrel rolling several times into a ditch. I see no evidence of any reinforced door guard beams, additional occupant containment measures, anti-intrusion protection sills or supplemental inflatable restraints. Not to mention how poor this idea is in inclement weather. If you can show me one of these vehicles that meets or surpasses an industry standardized 5 star side impact crash test, then we'll talk. I doubt if this wil ever become marketable on anything more than showcars until such concerns are addressed. For now I'll stick with my very rigidly designed (albeit antiquated) hinged and sliding doors on my minivans and cars.
