An alternate answer. I’m assuming your Panda is not the current model which looks like this:

current Panda

As this has fairly normal vents, but is more like this:

older Panda

In this case you still have flat space, there are two possibilities

  1. Self adhesive disc

This is a mount size disc which one side sticks to your dashboard, and the sucker on the nav mount sticks to the other (thanks Nate Eldredge). It looks like this:

sat nav disc

  1. Beanbag

This is a weighted beanbag with a space to mount the nav arm, sits free standing on dash, but weight keeps it in place, looks like this:

So lots of possibilities to think about.

Not an expert on Swiss laws, but have encountered this before.

Main bone of contention is usually where (as you say) it obscures vision. That doesn’t automatically preclude the windscreen, just where you place it. So mounting the window mount low on the passenger side which you can show is in the extreme of peripheral vison is usually enough.

Also helps with the other issue that comes up, that of setting it while driving as you can also show you need to either stop to do it, or require the passenger to do it instead.
