Yamaha e-Bike 30th Anniversary

The electrically power-assisted bicycle, or “e-Bike,” is seeing impressive growth around the globe today, but it was Yamaha Motor that pioneered the first e-Bike back in 1993.

The first system mounted our signature Power Assist System (PAS), in which an electric motor is used to provide an assistive force to the pedalling power of the rider in a manner that feels natural and in tune with human perceptions. Simply named the PAS after its headline feature, the bicycle was hailed as the first of its kind in the world and enjoyed a successful market debut.

This year we celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Yamaha e-Bike and its systems, and we would like to thank all our customers for their years of support as well as once again affirm our dedication to offer e-Bikes that help make every day more fun and fulfilling.


Yamaha Expands e-Bike Product Range

Yamaha launches three new complete Yamaha models on the global stage - the YDX-Moro 07, Wabash RT, and CrossCore RC. Australia receives the YDX-Moro 07 a year later. The YDX-Moro 07 uses our Dual Twin® frame design, which houses the new, lighter, and smaller PW-X3 drive unit that produces powerful torque. This All-Mountain weapon also comes with compact control switches, a minimalist display, and top-shelf e-MTB components to improve ride performance. The Wabash RT is a gravel e-Bike that offers the comfort of a road bike with off-road performance for heading off the beaten path, such as to flat trails or gravel roads. The CrossCore RC is do-it-all urban e-Bike model that is equally capable of handling commuting duties as well as embarking on longer rides through suburbia.
