How do Tesla SUV doors open?

Do Tesla SUVs have butterfly doors or normal doors? I love butterfly doors but they’re not very practical for a garage space.

Tesla SUV doors open in two ways: swinging outward on hinges like a normal car and swinging upward in a butterfly style.
The
Tesla Model X
is the only Tesla vehicle that comes with butterfly doors. It should be noted that the butterfly doors are only in the rear of the vehicle, so you’ll need to open the driver’s and passenger’s doors normally.
The
Tesla Model Y
, Tesla’s other SUV model, only comes with standard car doors. If you’re hoping for a Tesla SUV without butterfly styling, this vehicle might be the better choice for you.
