So with the falcon wing doors you couldn't open up passenger seats in your standard garage. I'd suspect people who could afford this wouldn't have a standard garage anyways though.
- ygra 11y agoA standard garage seems to have quite a bit over two meters in height, which should be enough to open the doors. They also have sensors and adapt both hinges to obstacles next to and above the car.

- lenomad 11y agoMusk actually demoes it opening in a low-height garage. It has two hinges for the door that lets it open at less height.
- coldpie 11y agoThis is one of those things where if what you said is true, then the engineers would be brain-dead morons. I suspect it's more likely that it does work in most standard garages, than Tesla's engineers have never thought to try it in a standard garage.
- bluedino 11y agoLet's say you take your AWD SUV up to your cottage in the mountains, or to a ski resort, and you've got 6" of snow on top of your car. What happens when you open the doors?
- amaranth 11y agoYou clear the snow off before opening the back doors. You should be clearing it off before you drive anyway so it's not much of a difference.
