Also known as demi-landau carriages
A landaulet carriage body is the rear half of a landau body with one forward-facing bench seat covered by a folding roof or head. In front in place of the other half of the landau body is a roofed and glazed wooden framework which folds down or may be entirely removed. Some landaulets are light enough to be drawn by one horse.
