This car, however, throws that all out the window, and it's left us all scratching our heads a bit. As trends shift, so do the ways to address them, and thankfully this predicament has an easy solution. Technology gives us all sorts of new ways to design and use our everyday items. In the case of the 2021 Ford Mustang, this manifests in a very bizarre-looking door. This new feature takes minimalism to a whole new level - on the outside, at least. Inside, there are the same buttons and latches and gizmos that all make a car work. If you're interested in this particular vehicle, don't worry, the door feature is easy to work, even if it doesn't look like that at first glance. Simple design houses a simple solution 2021 Ford Mustang doorless handle / Jalopnik At first glance, this shiny new car model is a lot to look at and little else. What good is a nice car if you can't get in it and drive? The answer is as simple as the streamline appearance of the vehicle. A simple button sits on the vertical trim framing the rear doors. That button is the key. Now that keyless cars are becoming mainstream, so too are handleless doors.

A little grip pad sits on the backside of the door, perfect for latching on and gaining leverage. This little trick gets you what you want. The interior matches the exterior On the 2021 Ford Mustang, the inside handles are sleek and hidden like the outside ones / Jalopnik The fun doesn't end on the outer door; for the 2021 Ford Mustang, the inside matches the outside. Once more, the designers went for a very sleek, streamlined layout. Nothing sticks out, bulges, or draws attention to itself, creating a nearly continuously smooth surface. Instead of a handle shaped like a lever or something similar, there is a dip in the trim to grab onto that acts as your way out. While this neat design has many people impressed, some have approached Ford with questions concerning safety. Namely, they await word on how these doors will work for first responders, especially if something goes wrong with all the devices and parts associated with opening the doors. In the meantime, those wishing to settle into their 2021 Ford Mustang comfortably can do so knowing where all the handles are hidden.
