Zusammenfassung:A vehicle includes a pair of opposing to hinged doors having a first door and a second door. The first and second doors each include a tumblehome portion that extends inboard of a first rotation axis and a second rotation axis respectively. The first door and second doors are disposed adjacent each other when in a closed position, and define a gap between the tumblehome portions of the first and second doors. An applique is moveably attached to one of the doors, and is moveable between a sealing position and a withdrawn position. When in the sealing position, the applique extends across the gap. When in the withdrawn position, the applique is spaced from one of the doors, thereby allowing the doors to simultaneously rotate open in opposite directions without the tumblehome portions of the doors contacting or otherwise interfering with each other.
