Type of car door
Butterfly doors are a type of car door sometimes seen on high-performance cars. They are slightly different from scissor doors. While scissor doors move straight up via hinge points at the bottom of a car's A-pillar, butterfly doors move up and out via hinges along the A-pillar.[1] This makes for easier entry and exit, at the expense of requiring more side clearance than needed for scissor doors.
