Yamaha may revolutionize the Brazilian low-displacement market with its new 155cc engine. The manufacturer surprised everyone and took advantage of the Interlagos Motorcycles Festival 2023 to expand its “premium” low-displacement line. Now, in addition to the FZ15, launched in August 2022, the brand is also selling the new R15 in Brazil, featuring Yamaha’s low-displacement engine.

The Japanese manufacturer also announced that it will relaunch its most successful special and limited Marvel series. The Lander 250 ABS Captain America and the Fazer FZ25 ABS Black Panther and Captain Marvel will return to stores soon, with 600 units per model.

The new Yamaha R15 mini sportbike arrived in stores in November, available in three color options and a suggested price of R$ 18,999. However, those interested in purchasing Yamaha’s low-displacement motorcycle were able to make an online reservation on the brand’s e-commerce platform starting at 3 PM on June 23. The reservation fee was R$ 2,000 and was deducted from the final purchase price.

Despite its small displacement, the Yamaha R15 engine features advanced and sophisticated technologies. In addition to liquid cooling, the single-cylinder engine has an exact displacement of 155 cm³ with variable valve timing, similar to the NMax 160 scooter.

Thus, despite delivering 18.8 horsepower at high revs, at 10,000 rpm, the low-displacement mini sportbike promises good torque at low rotations, reaching a maximum of 1.5 kgfm at 8,500 rpm. Notably, it also features a six-speed gearbox with assist and slipper clutch.

Its design was inspired by Yamaha’s higher-displacement supersport models. Featuring LED headlights, the front fairing has an M-shaped air intake, similar to the YZR-M1, the brand’s MotoGP bike.

LED taillights and a fully digital dashboard complete the differentiators of this Japanese mini sportbike. In terms of cycling, the new Yamaha R15 has a steel Deltabox frame, while the rear swingarm is made of aluminum. At the front, the small sportbike with Yamaha’s low-displacement engine uses conventional telescopic forks.

With alloy wheels fitted with wide tires (140 mm wide at the rear), the new R15 features disc brakes with ABS on both wheels. The YZF-R15 arrived in stores in November, offering three color options: Matte Silver, Racing Blue, and Midnight Black. The mini sportbike will come with a three-year warranty.

Yamaha is Also Working on a New Electric Engine

Yamaha is developing a new electric engine that promises to surpass Tesla cars, anticipating the installation and use of multiple units in just one vehicle.

The century-old manufacturer will leverage its production technology in assembly, machining, and casting areas, which gives the company the flexibility to adapt to the demands of motorcycles and its other diverse projects, aiming to develop engine prototypes and adapting to specific customer demands in a short period.

The new Yamaha engine is in intermediate development and will be capable of generating 350 kW of power, with this final number subject to changes. The newly developed oil-cooled electric motor is super compact and treats mechanical and electrical components as a single piece, integrating the gear and inverter into one unit.
