Unlike hybrids, Yamaha’s patent doesn’t show any large battery. It’s a clean electric turbo system connected directly to the engine.
An electric turbo spins faster using electricity, not just exhaust gas. This cuts turbo lag and boosts power instantly.
This tech is already used in luxury cars. Now Yamaha wants to bring it to motorcycles for better performance and quick response.
This could be the first time a motorcycle uses electric turbo tech without hybrid systems. That’s a major leap in two-wheeler performance.
Yamaha has tried turbo ideas before, but none reached production. This patent, however, looks simpler and more practical than previous ones.
So far, it’s only a patent—no launch dates. But it shows Yamaha is serious about future performance without heavy hybrid systems.
While Yamaha bets on electric turbos, Honda’s V3 concept uses an electric compressor. The race for future superbike tech is on!
