Apart from making some of the most reliable and technologically advanced motorcycles in the world, Yamaha has been making a killing in the e-bike sector as well. Not too long ago, it released a range of e-bikes – both commuters and performance-oriented models – to suit a wide selection of applications. This time around, the Japanese manufacturer is bumping up its e-bike technology.
Yamaha already has an impressive e-bike system in the form of the PW-X3. However, hot on the heels of some impressive new developments from other players in the e-bike space, Yamaha has taken it upon itself to launch the new PW-XM. According to the brand, the PW-XM is the perfect combination between lightweight construction and high torque and power output. The quest for shedding weight on e-bike systems is nothing new. In fact, this is what Bosch's newest Performance Line SX is all about, and it's also at the very core of Fazua's compact Ride 60 e-bike system.
