The doors are not just a gimmick or aesthetic flourish. By opening toward the rear of the car, they allow passengers in the rear seats to enter and exit the vehicle more comfortably.
That’s why they existed in the first place. In fact, a lot of two door cars had the two doors opening the same way the back doors open here.
