Opel introduced the new Meriva concept at Geneva 2008. New Meriva should be getting a new door system called Flexdoors. On that system the front door is still hinged from the front A pillar, but the rear door is hinged from the rear or C pillar.
If you look closely at the spy pictures you can see that the door handle bars are camouflaged to hide where they are. Actually they are much more on front than on current Meriva’s model.

New Meriva will most probably go on sale in 2009 as a 2010 model.

The FlexDoors system also enhances comfort and functionality, as the highest point of the roof – just behind the B-pillars – is exactly where the passengers enter and exit the vehicle. This architecture enabled designers to create a very dynamic and unique silhouette, with the arched roof line sloping down to the C-pillars.
