On the Job – Working Machines and Vehicles
2014 Exhibitions - Vol. 1
Exhibition Period: May 6, 2014 – October 31, 2014
Yamaha Motor offers products for leisure and sport that are familiar to people around the world—from our motorcycles and boats to WaveRunner personal watercraft and snowmobiles. But, that’s not all Yamaha products are used for. Numerous Yamaha vehicles and machines are used to support people’s daily lives and to perform various tasks at worksites. In this exhibition, we cast the spotlight on some Yamaha products that most people usually do not see or use very often, but nonetheless serve important roles for society. We introduced how these products were born, their features and how they are used on the job today in Japan and around the globe.
