Vanderhall Motor Works is an American vehicle manufacturer based in Provo, Utah.[1] It manufactures hand-made three-wheeled autocycles designed for sports driving, touring, commuting and city driving.[2][3]

History

Vanderhall Laguna

Vanderhall Motor Works was founded in 2010 by Steve Hall. Hall, who had been a CAD designer at Novatek, spent five years prototyping before offering his designs to the public. His initial model was the Laguna: a three-wheel roadster that is federally classified as a motorcycle and passed final testing for NHTSA and EPA certification in 2016.[4] In 2016, Vanderhall officially produced three autocycle models: Laguna, Laguna Sport Premium, and the Laguna Bespoke Motoring Experience. Each features a 1.4-liter, turbocharged GM Family 0 engine with a GM 6-speed automatic transmission.

On June 12 2023 Vanderhall Motor Works failed in an attempt to take the domain name vanderhall.com through the UDRP process. The respondent in this case registered the domain name in the year 2000 and the domain name matches the respondents surname, 'van der Hall'.[5]
