The Mazda RX8 does and one fancy model of Saturn did, but these are more for making it easier to get into the backseat of two generally cramped cars, so I don’t know if it would help with your needs.

other than a mini van, not really. as stated the rx8 and the saturn are small, and don’t open as wide as the element, if your thinking about this for a wheelchair conversion, it would be best to ask a specialist in this type of a conversion.
