<p>Yamaha has showcased the Proto Electric Superbike, also known as the Proto BEV, at the Japan Mobility Show 2025. The prototype reflects the manufacturer’s R-series heritage through its aerodynamic form and compact fairing structure. As a purpose-built concept, it excludes road-legal fittings such as mirrors or lighting units. </p><p><a href="https://www.autox.com/new-bikes/yamaha/">Yamaha</a> positions the Proto BEV as a developmental platform to demonstrate progress in electric performance engineering rather than as a product intended for commercial production.

However, the performance intent reportedly sits between the YZF-R6 and flagship YZF-R1.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/yamaha-yzf-r3-mt-03-prices-reduced-by-up-to-rs-20000-post-gst-20-revision-121859/">Yamaha YZF-R3, MT-03 Prices Reduced by Up to Rs 20,000 post GST 2.0 Revision</a></p><p>The chassis follows Yamaha’s handling approach and uses materials that maintain balance and strength. It features upside-down front forks with a low-mounted rear monoshock to maintain even weight distribution. Braking is handled by dual discs at the front and a single disc at the rear, matching Yamaha’s current sport models. The setup supports a controlled riding stance for track conditions.</p><p>Technology on the Proto BEV includes a simplified Human-Machine Interface for clear communication between rider and system. Fingertip controls and a visual-audio display share operational data. The rear brake is operated by the left-hand lever instead of a foot pedal, bringing control inputs to one area. This configuration represents Yamaha’s study of improved ergonomics for electric motorcycles and refined mechanical systems for track operation.</p><p>

Yamaha Proto BEV Superbike Revealed at Japan Mobility Show 2025

The Yamaha Proto Electric Superbike at Japan Mobility Show 2025 showcases R-series design, electric powertrain, and the brand’s future performance direction.

<p><a href="https://www.autox.com/new-bikes/yamaha/">Yamaha Motor India</a> has revised the prices of its YZF-R3 and MT-03 motorcycles, making them more competitive in the entry-level performance segment. The reduction follows the rollout of the GST 2.0 tax reform, which has lowered overall taxation on two-wheelers. With this move, both models are now more than Rs 20,000 cheaper than before, increasing affordability for riders interested in premium twin-cylinder motorcycles. This marks the second price correction from Yamaha for the R3 and MT-03 within a year, signalling the brand’s intention to make these products more attractive to a wider audience. By passing on the benefits of the updated tax system directly to customers, Yamaha is looking to strengthen its presence in the mid-capacity motorcycle market while appealing to riders who previously found the pricing difficult to justify.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/yamaha-xr155-debuts-in-taiwan-with-155cc-engine-flat-floorboard-and-smart-headlamp-tech-121788/">Yamaha XR155 Debuts in Taiwan With 155cc Engine, Flat Floorboard and Smart Headlamp Tech</a></p><p>The <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-bikes/yamaha/yzf-r3/">Yamaha R3</a> now has a new price tag of Rs 3.39 lakh (ex-showroom), down from Rs 3.60 lakh.

The models remain unchanged in hardware and performance, but at their revised costs, they now offer better value for money in the performance-focused segment.</p><h2>Yamaha YZF-R3, MT-03: Engine &amp; Performance</h2><p>Both the Yamaha R3 and <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-bikes/yamaha/mt-03/">MT-03</a> are powered by a 321cc, liquid-cooled, parallel-twin engine. The motor produces 41.42bhp and 29.5Nm of torque and comes paired with a six-speed gearbox. The motorcycles feature upside-down front forks, a preload-adjustable monoshock at the rear, and disc brakes on both wheels with dual-channel ABS as standard. This setup ensures everyday usability as well as capability for longer rides, while maintaining a balance between performance and comfort.</p><p>

These prices met with criticism for being less competitive compared to rivals, limiting their customer base. Over the past year, Yamaha has made efforts to reposition the models, with the latest cuts under GST 2.0 bringing them closer to customer expectations.

Yamaha’s decision to immediately reflect the revised tax impact in its pricing underlines the company’s strategy to expand its presence in the mid-capacity market. </p>

Yamaha says this provides better clarity in both city traffic and darker road stretches.</p><p>Powering the Cygnus XR155 is a 155cc liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine with Variable Valve Actuation (VVA), the same unit seen in the Aerox 155. It produces 15bhp and 13.9Nm of torque, enabling smooth acceleration while supporting fuel efficiency.

MotoGP: Acosta Tops Final In-Season Test at Misano for KTM; Yamaha Riders Try New V4 Bike

Pedro Acosta set the pace at Misano’s final MotoGP in-season test with a 1m30.374s lap, as Yamaha, Ducati, KTM and Aprilia tested updated components for the 2025 season.

<p>Yamaha has unveiled its new V4-powered MotoGP prototype at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli, with its first on-track outing scheduled during the San Marino Grand Prix. This marks the end of Yamaha’s long reliance on the inline-four, which has underpinned its MotoGP effort since the sport adopted four-stroke engines in 2002. Test rider Augusto Fernandez will oversee the public shakedown, beginning a crucial phase of data collection for the team. The switch to a V4 comes after a lengthy spell without victories, with Yamaha’s last win dating back to 2022. Its inline-four has struggled against rival V4 machines, particularly for straight-line speed and drive out of corners. With the old design reaching its limits, Yamaha engineers set about creating a fresh platform with a greater focus on outright performance.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/motorsport-news/motogp-catalan-gp-alex-marquez-beats-marc-to-end-15-race-streak-in-dramatic-barcelona-duel-121699/">MotoGP Catalan GP: Alex Marquez Beats Marc to End 15-Race Streak in Dramatic Barcelona Duel</a></p><p>Factory riders Fabio Quartararo and Alex Rins, alongside satellite rider Jack Miller, have already tested the bike privately in Barcelona. However, current restrictions on aerodynamics and homologation mean the prototype is unlikely to race before 2026. The Misano run is aimed at gathering information in race-like conditions, providing engineers with real-time feedback.</p><p>Yamaha Test Rider Andrea Dovizioso said: 'Since the very first outing in Malaysia, the project has given me very positive feelings. From the moment I tried the V4-powered prototype, I liked it straight away. With every run the feeling has improved, and I've always sensed great potential. Of course, there is still work to be done, but the indications so far are very encouraging. I believe we've made excellent progress, and I'm really enjoying this role as a test rider.'</p><p>

It's an honour to be involved in such a big project for Yamaha and to be the first one to race the new bike! It will be a weekend during which we focus on improving our V4-powered prototype and define its strengths and weaknesses whilst riding with the rest of the MotoGP riders, in real time, in a race setting. So, it will be an important weekend – we get to see where we stand – so I'm really excited for this GP and can't wait to start.'</p><p>Yamaha’s Concession Rank D status is helping to accelerate development, granting extra technical allowances such as in-season engine modifications. While new 850cc regulations are due in 2027, Yamaha is pressing ahead with the V4 project to build experience and prepare for the transition.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/motorsport-news/isrl-season-2-rider-auction-sets-new-milestone-with-global-supercross-stars-record-bids-121665/">ISRL Season 2 Rider Auction Sets New Milestone with Global Supercross Stars &amp; Record Bids</a></p><p>The debut is the outcome of collaboration between Yamaha’s engineering bases in Japan and Europe. Team managers have stressed the careful, research-driven approach behind the project. Additional tests are planned at Sepang and Valencia, with a decision due next year on whether the V4 will replace the inline-four from the 2026 season.</p>
