Highlights

    How would you describe an exotic supercar? Well, for many of us, nothing screams uniqueness and class more than cars with gullwing doors. Exotic car door designs such as reverse-opening suicide or scissor doors add excellent aesthetics.

    But, there's nothing better than gullwing doors. These doors open like bird's wings and are undeniably appealing. Let's look at some cars that feature gullwing doors! 

    Mercedes-Benz 300SL

    The Mercedes-Benz 300SL is the boss of them all! This fuel-injected straight-six engine boasted of one feature that other cars in its time didn't have – gullwing doors! It had multi-tubular chassis combined with high sills, which resulted in that beautiful gullwing door design!

    Lamborghini Marzal

    The Marzal was a part of Lamborghini's large gullwing variety. This beast combined a two-litre in-line six engine, which was another one of its highlights. But, the interior cabin temperatures can get toasty since there are no opening windows.

    Autocam AZ-1

    The brand produced only 5000 units of the Autocam AZ-1. You might not be aware, but Suzuki designed this car for Mazda. The manufacturer fulfilled much of the design and engineering of this car in the UK. It packs a 657cc mid-mounted turbocharged engine.

    DeLorean DMC-12

    One of the exciting things about the DeLorean DMC is that the Giorgetto Giugiaro was the brains behind its design. The designer still refers to this gullwing featuring car as “Mr Hollywood.”

    Aston Martin Bulldog

    Under that aluminium skin, the Aston Martin Bulldog packed immense power and functionality. Bulldog's bird-like opening gullwing doors were its claim to fame. Apart from that, you'll also laud the model for its 5.3-litre V8 engines.

    Marcos Gullwing

    As the name suggests, the Marcos was one of the other excellent automobiles to come with the gullwing doors. Dennis Adams and Peter Adams were the designers and engineers behind this unique model. The truth is that the Marcos Gullwing can give a tough competition to even cars of 2021!

    Mercedes Benz CIII

    The compact three-chamber rotary-combustion engine that displaced 600cc per chamber was one of the eye-catchy features of the Mercedes Benz CIII. You'll also be surprised to learn that this beauty recorded a drag coefficient of 0.335! You get much more than gullwing doors with this car!

    Siva S530

    The prolific stylist from Siva, Neville Trickett, designed the S350. It combines a fuel-injected Aston V8 mounted amidships. Besides, the gullwing doors on this car are electrically-operated. What's more, this unique car also harbours special rectangular steering wheels.

    Bristol Fighter

    The Bristol Fighter stunned everyone with its entry in 2004. You'll love the 8.0-litre V10 engine from Didge Viper fitted in this automobile. The rugged engines deliver a max torque of 515 lb-ft and 525 horsepower.

    Tesla Model X

    Combining the terms Tesla and gullwing is enough to impress any car buyer. Tesla refers to the doors as “falcon wings.” Though it is not a supercar, the electric performance can beat any speedy automobile. You can operate the gullwing doors with a single button on your phone!
