Equivalent to a 50 cc scooter, the Yamaha E02 is an electric commuter for day to day usage. It is equipped with a removable battery. Thus, the requirement of fast charging has been removed. Powering the Yamaha E02 is a hub-mounted electric motor. Yamaha further claims that the E02 has a design which visualises the powertrain and gives an idea of the lightweight build of the scooter.

Suspension duties are overseen by a conventional telescopic fork at the front and possibly a single spring-based unit at the rear. The front wheel bears a disc brake.
