Sporty Off-Road Vehicles

This Yamaha Side-By-Side is Designed For Brash Off-Road Driving

— September 4, 2015 — Autos
The Yamaha YXZ1000R is a side-by-side vehicle that is packed with the most innovative and forward-looking technology in the industry. This vehicle is designed for off-road use, and will compete with the likes of the Polaris RZR and the Can-Am Maverick.

This side-by-side is powered by a new three-cylinder four-stroke 998 cc unit, the first triple-cylinder engine in this class. The vehicle is rumoured to offer 82 kW of power. The inclusion of twin air filters boosts reliability, as the foam and paper elements are accessible without having to use special tools.

This feature goes to show that the Yamaha YXZ1000R side-by-side isn't just designed for excellent off-road performance but it's also designed to be easy to maintain and repair as needed. Given the amount of beating off-road vehicles endure, that's an important bonus.
Trend Themes
1. Increased Reliability for Off-road Vehicles - The inclusion of twin air filters in the Yamaha YXZ1000R side-by-side showcases opportunities for innovations designed to increase the dependability of off-road vehicles.
2. Triple-cylinder Engines in Off-road Vehicles - With the Yamaha YXZ1000R side-by-side being the first in its class to feature a three-cylinder four-stroke engine, there is an opportunity for companies to introduce similar engines into the market.
3. Sophistication in Off-road Vehicle Design - As the Yamaha YXZ1000R side-by-side attempts to compete with the top competitors in its class, there is an opportunity for innovative, more sophisticated designs for these types of vehicles.
Industry Implications
1. Off-road Vehicle Manufacturing - Manufacturers of off-road vehicles can explore ways to improve vehicle performance and maintenance based on innovative designs like the Yamaha YXZ1000R side-by-side.
2. Automotive Manufacturing - Automotive companies could extend their manufacturing base to include more off-road vehicles designed for rugged terrains.
3. Outdoor Adventure Industry - The rise of technologically advanced off-road vehicles indicates opportunities for the outdoor adventure industry to expand as the popularity of off-road activities increase.
