It seems a number of car manufacturers are trailing their coats with freestyle door concepts. Not surprising - it really is a practical idea. Everbody who has ridden in the rear of the car comments how comfortable it is. Even my 90 year old mother in law has no troubles getting in and out.

MG did the freestyle door thing seventy years ago in the early thirties. Same deal with the back door being only openable from the inside, and a "complex arrangement of locks and bolts" to stop accidental opening.
Here's a pic of the K1, an MG sports sedan.
