Low profile door handle assembly

A door handle assembly is provided for a door of a vehicle. The door handle assembly includes a mount adapted for attachment to the vehicle, an input member supported for movement relative to the mount, and a handle supported for movement relative to the mount. The handle can move from a low profile position to an extended position. The handle is adjacent the mount in the low profile position, and the handle is spaced from the mount in the extended position. The handle moves from the low profile position to the extended position due to an input provided to the input member. The handle can be further moved from the extended position to an operative position to unlatch the door of the vehicle.
