Is This Electric Yamaha UTV Concept the Cutest Workhorse You've Ever Seen?

Back in January 2025, Yamaha showed off a new concept line of EVs that it was bringing to the masses attending Tokyo Auto Salon 2025. At the time, I was admittedly quite preoccupied with a little quad meant to channel design inspiration from the Kenny Roberts two-stroke racing era, and…

Yamaha’s New E-Bike Service Platform Aims To Keep E-Bikes On the Road For Longer

I think a lot of you will agree when I say that e-bikes are cool. Not just because they make climbing hills feel like cheating (in the best way), but because they’re changing how people get around. In Europe especially, they’ve gone from quirky commuter tools to full-blown car replacements…

Ducati’s Milking Its New V2 Engine, Will Likely Stuff It Into Monster and DesertX

Ducati’s name is practically etched into the walls of motorcycling Valhalla, as it's synonymous with speed, style, and high-revving performance. But lately, the brand seems to be taking a page out of a different playbook. Not the usual “bigger is better,” but something a little more forward-thinking. Smarter. More sustainable.
