Abstract

A door device for vehicles, comprising a door arranged at a side of a body of a vehicle, the door having two end portions in a horizontal direction of the body. A first connecting member is arranged at the one end portion of the door, a second connecting member is arranged at the other end portion of the body; and a third connecting member arranged at a lower end portion of the door in a height direction of the body. The first, second and third connecting members arranged at the door are connectable with the body. The first and second connecting members have upper ends with these upper ends and the third connecting member arranged to provide a truss structure which connects the door and the body and provide rigidity against stress applied from the body to the door in a state where the door is closed.
