A vehicle includes a saddle riding vehicle and a sidecar coupled to the saddle riding vehicle. The sidecar includes a wheel configured to facilitate a movement of the sidecar on a road, and at least one electric motor operatively coupled to the wheel to rotate the wheel. At least two bars extend from the sidecar to the saddle riding vehicle and couples the sidecar to the saddle riding vehicle. Moreover, the vehicle includes load sensors mounted on the at least two bars to detect a measure of a yaw torque acting on the vehicle. A controller is configured to determine the yaw torque acting on the vehicle based on inputs received from the load sensors, and control the electric motor to control a wheel torque provided to the wheel of the sidecar by the electric motor to reduce the yaw torque acting on the vehicle.
