Established in Switzerland in 1967 by Peter Monteverdi who, during the late 1950s and early 1960s, had built, sold and raced a number of "specials" while developing the motor vehicle repair business founded by his father.
From 1976 the high-performance models were discontinued and Monteverdi concentrated on Safari, Sierra and the Sahara, based on International Harvester's Scout II and Traveller series.
Then between 1980 and 1982Monteverdi would manufacture their own unique version of the 4 door Range Rover, however despite ambitious plans for subsequent models production would cease in 1982, and the factory was converted into a museum, the MonteverdiCar Collection, in 1985.
Monteverdi was a Swiss brand of luxury cars created in 1967 by Peter Monteverdi (1934 - 1998) and based in Binningen, Switzerland.
The Monteverdi Hai (in German means "Shark") 450 mid-engined 2-seater was shown at the 1970 Geneva Salon, but due to a much higher price than competing Ferrari and Lamborghini models this was not a success and only 2 are believed to have been produced.
From 1976, these high-performance models were discontinued and Monteverdi concentrated on Safari, Sierra and the Sahara- based on the International Harvester's lightline featuring the Scout II and Traveller (dubbed the short and long versions of the Sahara) off-road vehicles again featuring Chrysler V8, and later Nissan S6, engines.
