The Good, Bad and the Ugly of the 2022 Vanderhall Venice GT Autocycle.

In this video, I talk about my honest opinion of the 2022 Vanderhall Venice GT Autocycle. I cover some of the Good, Bad and the Ugly and I also explain why I believe that this Autocycle is actually a practical choice for a recreational vehicle. Thanks for watching, and don't forget to do the 3 things (like, subscribe & ring that bell). Enjoy.

Thanks for your honest review, I'll admire this vehicle from afar.

Love the turbo sound. Keep making vids 👍🏾

I feel the same way as you I love my Vanderhall it's like riding a motorcycle with the safety of a car but even better than a motorcycle. I changed the color of my dashboard and when I put it back together I put a piece of metal around the key ring and then it wouldn't start I was told by Vanderhall that the metal ring next to the ignition switch interfered with the RF frequency. my ignition is not like yours I have a normal looking key, that's what they told me about my ignition I haven't had the problem since 😊

Thanks for the review. I rented one for my birthday a couple years ago and it was a blast. I did have the steering linkage come apart after day 2 of the rental (luckily I was backing out of a driveway and not on the curvy parts of the 500 miles we put on it). The steering had a quarter turn of play both directions before anything would happen to the wheels. I also noticed a lot of blow by and oil spatter on the windshield/passenger side of the vehicle. But aside from those things, it was so much fun and I was happy for the experience. I plan to buy one at some point when I'm tired of riding motorcycles or when my kid gets older and wants to tag along.

Awesome vid, thinking of buying one for cruising in Florida so this gave a lot of perspective 👍🏼

Very interesting video. Thanks from France :)

Thank you for the honest review. Ive always wanted a Vanderhall but after watching this I too feel that dealers aren't entirely on-board with Vanderhall services and issues. Therefore, I won't be buying a Vanderhall at this time.

Great video and informative 👍. I’m in the process of buying a one owner 2022 Vanderhall Carmel Blackjack with 250 original miles.

at 0:37 I believe the tires are "directional tires" and are mounted backwards. They won't displace water when mounted in this direction, instead you'll get hydroplaning.

This was really great info. A poor dealer network is a dealbreaker for me. and my closest dealer is >100miles away :-(

[paulh]

I have always wanted one of these, but the QC and dealership of your experience have soured me on this.

[williamgarner]

I love the Vandehall look but I hear so many bad things about this car / motorcycle and a dealer mechanic warned me not to buy one..There was a guy there who bought one which was so beautiful I might add but he claimed it was a 1500 pound paper weight he only drove it for a month and it was in the motorcycle dealership for three months with engine problems..But I’m so hard headed and still thinking of buying a used one but only thinking I must stress..

[josephtramutola]

Well, I’m glad you’re having fun with it. I bought one used with 8000 miles on it and broke down the first day I bought it same model 2017 it also has the same power steering problem. That makes me wanna look for a ground now and see if that is the problem with mine. I don’t even drive it further around the block. I’m afraid it’s gonna break down and I’m also having problems with not starting all the time,

I've got a 2021 Vanderhall Venice Blackjack and love it too. My three dealers in the area all stop selling and servicing them When I asked why, they said "customer service" from Vanderhall is a nightmare and they did not want to deal with them again or the product. Totally sucks if I have an issue. I was able to do my first oil change myself....with ramps, it was pretty easy. Changing the filter was a bit of a challange but doable. my only issue is the abour 2600 miles, it reset back to zero! Yup, when I reset the trip odometer after filling it up, it reset the odometer too. I have no idea how that can happen nor how I can resolve it to get the actual mileage back. Currently, it shows 1441. I've also had encounters with vehicles not seeing me when we were "side by side". I replaced the two mrriors with a Kuryakyn mirror (huge difference in less vibration). Iuse a back support pillow as well. Other than those issues, I love it and so does my 8 year old grandddaughter. Gave up MC for good with this ride.

I was all ready to trade in my Harley for a Vanderhal last year, when the news came they were going electric. Then the dealers started dropping the sale of Vanderhal. Bad move in my eyes, purchased a Spyder RT Limited instead.

Own a Slingshot.. they have ground wire problems with the battery too. Once cleaned and tightened... most problems (dash lights) go away.

[stevenhill-vz]

great info to know my wife wants one really bad

[gregnutter]

I have a 2022 Carmel GTS and love it. I did have to replace the fuel cap and both seat belt.

[christopherchapman]

I owned the 7th venice ever off the assembly line and put 25, 000 miles on it. Only issue i had was a driver side axle cv boot started leaking. That being said i only paid $23, 000 for it. At $30-40k its a tall ask.

I just watched your video and absolutely loved it! I have been thinking of putting my motorcycle up for sale and buying something a bit safer to drive. I live near the Blue Ridge Parkway which would be an amazing place to drive a Vanderhall! I wonder if they would give me a military discount? Thanks again for your truly professional video! 73!
