Its distinct sand and black color scheme evokes a sense of wanderlust, making it not just a mode of transportation but a statement for those who love to explore the great outdoors and traverse uncharted paths.
At the heart of the Sahara SE lies a robust 749cc two-cylinder boxer engine, delivering a respectable 41 horsepower at 5,500 RPM.

With a torque rating of 56.95 Nm available at 4,300 RPM, the Sahara SE provides ample pulling power, especially when the engageable sidecar wheel drive kicks in. Riders will appreciate the unique handling characteristics of Ural's IMZ leading link front fork and dual-sided swing-arm rear suspension, which work harmoniously to absorb bumps and maintain stability over rough terrain.
The Sahara SE is packed with features that enhance both comfort and functionality. From its electric and kick starter options to the adjustable Sachs hydraulic shock absorbers that provide a personalized riding experience, every detail is designed with the rider's needs in mind. The spacious sidecar is not just for passengers; it includes a black Jerry can for extra fuel storage, making it ideal for long-distance adventures. With a generous fuel capacity of 5 gallons, riders can venture further without the constant worry of refueling. Plus, the 24-month warranty adds an extra layer of assurance for those investing in this classic beauty.
