The radically styled Mercury MC4 concept car sported "gull-wing" style truck lids raised from just above either rear wheel well to allow easy access to stored items. Video-imaging cameras replaced conventional side and rearview mirrors. Side rear doors were hinged at the rear, eliminating the need for a center pillar. Cast 19-inch five-spoke wheels wrapped in Goodyear low-profile tires were pushed to the edge of the body. In theory, the MC4 would be powered by a V-8.
