The PATH taken on our value creation journey with our core competencies
The origin of Yamaha Motor’s technologies can be traced down to a single engine.
Our powertrain expertise—which has gone on to serve as the basis for all sorts of Monozukuri pursuits—began with the 2-stroke engine in the YA-1 the company offered at its inception.
Since then, we have kept our finger on the pulse of people’s lifestyles as it expanded to 4-stroke engines and electric motors while expanding their fields of use with consistent improvements.
