Mash Introduces The Black Side, A Sleek Sidecar With A Rugged Personality

In modern times, the sidecar is a rare kind of transportation that is not especially prevalent, but has a devoted fan base—I'm looking at you, Jason. Sidecars, which are mostly regarded as recreational vehicles, are rare nowadays since mainstream manufacturers tend to avoid this specialized market, though, the custom scene has brought forth quite a good number of sidecars.

Nevertheless, this hasn't stopped smaller manufacturers such as Mash from experimenting with this archaic, albeit charming three-wheeled mode of transport. Hoping to go for a similar aesthetic as that of Ural, Mash, distributed by French company Sima, has been dabbling in the sidecar scene since 2017. The Chinese-made three-wheelers first hit the market with the Family-Side, a simple sidecar designed for, you guessed it, family use. This funky three-wheeler employed a streamlined, speedboat look. In 2021, Mash released the Force, a sidecar with a military-inspired design.
