car doors

Sedan's hinged panels

Car doors are the hinged panels on a vehicle's sides that open to let passengers in and out.

Most cars have two or four doors—the number often appears in vehicle descriptions: a four-door sedan, a two-door coupe.

Doors on some sports cars open upward rather than outward.
