An automotive vehicle in which a door hinge 64 of a front door 15 can forcibly be moved transversely outwardly of the vehicle, the automotive vehicle comprising an acceleration sensor 57 for detecting an impact applied to a front pillar and a door moving mechanism 52 for forcibly moving the door hinge 64 transversely outwardly of the vehicle, whereby the front door 15 is constructed to be moved transversely outwardly of the vehicle. In the event that an impact is applied to a front pillar, a front door can forcibly be moved transversely outwardly of an automotive vehicle on a side where the door hinge is provided, and in a case where the hinge is disposed in the vicinity of the front pillar, the transversely outward movement of the front door can be made large, whereby the interference of the front pillar with the front door can positively be prevented. Consequently, since the deformation of the front pillar cannot be prevented, the impact applied to the front pillar can effectively be absorbed and reduced.
