Vanderhall Venice and Carmel Roadster for Switzerland.

Friedli Vehicles AG in Wohlenschwil, Aargau, has been importing quads, side-by-sides, three-wheel motorcycles, jet boats, snowmobiles and boat engines from BRP for over 20 years. In the search for corresponding on-road offers, the company came across the up-and-coming American brand Vanderhall Motor Works five years ago, which launched its first three-wheeled roadster, the Laguna, in 2015. The company had to wait four years until Vanderhall started importing to Europe in 2019, but with a now broader and more refined range of products. That was the starting signal to exclusively bring the handmade car wheels made in the USA to Switzerland.

Vanderhall currently has three product types at the start, all of which are also available in Switzerland. The "Venice" offers puristic driving pleasure in fine weather, which manages without doors and roof and with an acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.5 seconds provides a lot of fun and sufficient power reserves. The "Carmel" has the potential to become a fun all-year-round car, which offers a little more comfort with special doors, a removable roof and special accessories that are already installed. With 185 hp and an unladen weight of 640 kilograms, both models have a very sporty power-to-weight ratio. In terms of price, Vanderhall's tricycles are almost a bargain. The "Blackjack", the basic model of both versions, is available from a sporty CHF 39,900 and CHF 51,900 respectively.
