Yamaha has been making strides in its home market of Japan when it comes to electric two-wheelers. We’ve already talked about Yamaha’s new e-scooter and e-bike options that were recently introduced, as well as the E01, the company’s first electric commuter scooter. Now, the company is rolling out an experimental leasing program for the E01 in Japan, in order to provide a sort of long-term demo, prior to actually launching it for sale in the market.
According to Yamaha, the experimental leasing program’s main goal is to collect usage data about the scooter, to see how they can further improve the user experience. Factors such as connectivity, particularly on 3G and LTE lines, play a major role in ensuring continuous connectivity with the scooter, as well as other issues concerning day-to-day usage. That said, the Yamaha E01 isn’t all too different from other electric scooters in the market. However, knowing Yamaha, they always seem to go the extra mile in ensuring the reliability and dependability of their products.
