"One traditional drawback of the traditional two-door body style is the long, heavy door required to provide access for rear-seat passengers. GM engineers attempted to make the matter more manageable with this linear-opening arrangement for the 1975 Monte Carlo, not unlike the side-door mechanism later employed on a host of minivans. Obviously, the feature never made it to production—on two-door sedans, anyway."
