Only three wheels, no roof, but elegant: these are the sporty three-wheelers from Vanderhall. Vanderhall Motor Works has been producing its sports cars in the USA since 2016. To date, six models have emerged. In addition to three-wheeled vehicles, Edison, which has already been discontinued² It even comes with an electric drive; two electric off-road vehicles are also part of the range.

So how does a Vanderhall drive? Blick managed to try this two years ago: with 185 hp (136 kW) from the 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine and a weight of only 640 kilograms, it can reach 100 km/h in 4.5 seconds and continue at 200 km/h. H. Only a small windshield provides protection against wind. In Switzerland, exotics have been offered since 2021 by Friedli Fahrzeug AG in Wohlen AG, which turns fifty this year. This guarantees a Swiss polish before delivery, including the windshield wipers. The importer now offers its new products to Auto Zurich.

Nobility open to the top

The highlight of the stand was the Vanderhall Carmel GTS as the luxury version. Propulsion remains at 185 hp, but the interior is suitably trimmed with an embroidered leather interior and stainless steel footrests. If it gets too hot in the open Vanderhall, the sunroof can be opened. The price of the Carmel GTS is 70,900 francs.

As a second three-wheeled highlight, the stand features two models from Canadian brand Can-Am: In the sportier Can-Am Spyder F3-S Special Series, smartphone apps provide infotainment, but here the focus is on the immediate driving experience. The brand’s top model, the Can-Am Spyder RT Sea-to-Sky, is downright luxurious and also suitable for longer tours: the rider’s backrest is adjustable; There’s also an integrated chassis, up to 177 liters of storage, a helmet compartment and a 7.8-inch screen for infotainment.

And finally, next to all tricycles there is something very unusual: probably the first boat in Auto Zurich.
The Scarab 165 ID WAKE is the smallest jet boat on the market, offering space for five and putting on a big show with illuminated speakers for the sound system.
