Yamaha 03Gen


The Japanese company Yamaha, who only arrived late on the 3-wheelers segment, asked its creative to imagine the future of urban mobility. They currently exhibiting at the 36th International Motor Show in Bangkok with two concepts derived from the Tricity platform.

Behind their futuristic, concepts and 03GEN 03GEN-f-x are actually much more down-to-earth than it seems. Because there are no electric motors in the wheels or infrared heating as the WFP and Piaggio 600K PR. No, the goal is to focus on aesthetics while retaining the basic characteristics of a 125 cc scooter, which includes the internal combustion engine and its exhaust system.


Despite these constraints, designers of the Japanese group have done a remarkable job. Whether inspired by the racing world with 03GEN-f or motocross with 03GEN-x, their concepts are full of new ideas. The integration of equipment such as lights, dashboard or mudguards was enough to leave dreamer. Add some mirrors and almost imagine the road.


After two generations of concepts turned to the bike (01GEN) and the disabled (02GEN), this 3rd creative wave resonates as a consecration to the Tricity family. And especially for his train before "Leaning Multi Wheel" that Yamaha could operate on other models. It examines in particular the track "CMF", which is to create a range by varying colors, materials and finish.
