A motor vehicle door 1 , z. B. a door on the driver's side of a car, is in the range of its front edge 2 pivoted on the body in a known manner and between a closed position (in 1 shown) and an open position pivotally. On the inside of the vehicle door 1 are a solid door handle 3 for pivoting the door and a Türin nenverkleidung 4 appropriate. In addition, the motor vehicle door contains 1 or the door inner lining 4 an armrest 5 ,

The motor vehicle door 1 is held locked by a locking device (not shown) in its closed position. A device for unlocking the motor vehicle door 1 from the vehicle interior has a door unlocking handle or door inside handle 6 on, for example, about a vertical pivot axis 7 is pivotally mounted and in its rest position flush with adjacent parts of the door inner lining 4 ie an upper cowling 4a , a lower fairing part 4b , a front panel part 4c and a rear fairing part 4d , is arranged. The inside door handle 6 is thus in a depression formed in the door inner lining 8th sunk. The bearing of the pivot axis 7 can at the door interior panel 4 or at one on the motor vehicle door 1 be provided bracket provided.

At the motor vehicle door 1 is a swivel device (not shown) for the inside door handle 6 arranged, which the door inside handle 6 from its rest position about the pivot axis 7 swings into an operating position (see 2 ), in which he with his front edge 9 , the z. B. may be bevelled from top to bottom, from the door inner lining 4 is pivoted against the vehicle interior or an operator. The swivel angle is preferably less than 90 °.

The inside door handle 6 can now be detected manually in this operating position by the operator in a simple manner, since he out of the door inner lining 4 protrudes. By pulling or swiveling the inside door handle 6 the locking device is actuated and the vehicle door is unlocked.
