  The rearview photo shows how serious that machine is - the side-car wheel is also powered (and through what happens to be a locking differential at that). That has been pretty rare. And that also adds the reason why it was so successfully and widely used by German army in the invasions, in particular into USSR where "offroading" capabilities are a must. Btw, the USSR copy of BMW R-71 ("Dnepr", not the R-75 though) at Ukraine war today - in this case Russians put high-caliber machine gun from BTR onto the side-car https://t.me/Ugolok_Sitha/24913?single https://t.me/Ugolok_Sitha/24913?single
