By now, I am sure you found something like this:

Sorry, I meant that I've only encountered them when people describe the ease or
difficultly of getting in or out of cars - in automobile review, for example.

So, maybe something like "egress from the car", or "ingress into the car."  ???

Going back to your original concern that "makes me cudgel my brains -- "to get
into a car"", in my native Latvian we would litterally say "climb" for entering
or exiting a vehicle."

For example "Kap ara no masinas" (for "Climb out of the car."), or "Kap ieksa
masina" (for "Climb in the car."
