This is a list of cars with non-standard door designs, sorted by door type. These car models use passenger door designs other than the standard design, which is hinged at the front edge of the door, and swings away from the car horizontally and towards the front of the car. Many cars have door designs which give them a unique look, or which affect their practicality one way or another.

The main types of non-standard door designs are:

• Butterfly - hinged at the top of the door; open up and outward.
• Canopy - roof & sides are one unit hinged at the front (usually); entire assembly opens vertically.
• Coach (suicide) - hinged on the back end of the doorframe; open horizontally toward the rear.
• Gullwing - hinged to the roof at the top of the door; open upward.
• Scissors - hinged at the top front corner of the door; open by rotating vertically upwards.
• Sliding - mounted or suspended from a track; open by sliding horizontally alongside or into the vehicle sidewall.
