As one aspect of Yamaha's corporate objective of "sustainable development," we are engaged in the development and market release of EVs (electric vehicles) that run solely on electricity as people-friendly vehicles with minimized environmental impact. The "EC-02" released in May of 2005 is Yamaha's second EV, following the Passol. This is a model developed to offer design and performance that stimulates the spirit of fun in adults, while pursuing the qualities of gentleness, fun and ease of use that only an electric vehicle can provide.

You just have to love Japan's contributions to the Earth. The EC-02 commuter bike is a unique gift for the environmentally conscious person. Save money and save time.
