Honda Element

The Honda Element is a compact crossover SUV made by Honda in the United States for the 2003 to 2011 model years. Its weirdest quirk: Bi-parting side doors with no B-pillar between them, over a coated urethane floor instead of carpet.

A shoebox built in Ohio on a CR-V platform, with no B-pillar, side doors that open like a pair of cupboard doors and a floor you could basically hose out. One version even came with a dog ramp.
