A roadable vehicle includes main wings, a fuselage, a sliding door on a lateral side surface of the fuselage, and hinge mechanisms. The hinge mechanisms connect the main wings to the fuselage. The hinge mechanisms allow the main wings to turn between a first state where the main wings are folded beside the fuselage and a second state where the main wings are opened on the lateral sides of the fuselage. In the first state, the sliding door is opened and closed by sliding the sliding door in a space formed between one of the main wings and the fuselage while an outer side of the fuselage and an inner side of the sliding door facing each other.
