Transportation journalism today offers nothing more than recycled, force-fed scripts. Once noble outlets have become long-form ads and are now puppets of private interests. They now follow a set of misguided norms to try and find what they think is integrity.

VÉHICULE is the only journal for avant-garde transportation.
VÉHICULE is an annual edition, produced independently and ad-free without external influence. Its contents are the products of intensive, direct scrutiny making for a concisely tailored catalog of avant-garde transportation. It isn't intended for everyone.
At the center of the VÉHICULE's first edition is a deep dive into the underworld of offshore powerboating. Our investigation of the world's most dangerous sport starts in the 1970s with Ben Kramer, a South Florida kid with a penchant for living fast. In Miami, thrillseekers quickly found the tightly interwoven worlds of boats and drugs.
This is the story of Kramer's life and times—his racing and smuggling careers, business dealings, associates, ultimate downfall and how the American justice system twisted the murder of boating star Don Aronow against him.
This year's edition also highlights modern-day smuggling, fine art and design:
JEFF KOONS designs for superyacht Guilty ERWIN WURM on sculpture and society HENRIK PURIENNE and immortalizing the moment HARMONY KORINE breaks down the boating scene
2020 edition 27 × 21 × 1.3 cm, 160 pages Bound offset print on paper Ad-free, handmade in Germany
