Yamaha unveils electric sidecar concept for transporting pets (Yamaha)
Yamaha Motor has unveiled an electric sidecar concept, the C294, combining elements of a tricycle and a sidecar.
Developed in collaboration with the Sony Group and other companies, the design features a minimalist Scandinavian aesthetic, with white and beige tones and a finish resembling leather.
The concept aims to provide a unique way to transport pets but can also be used to carry other items when a pet is not on board.
The sidecar is part of Yamaha’s Diapason platform, focused on personal electric mobility, and will be powered by the Honda Mobile Power Pack e: battery. However, the chance of seeing the C294 become a commercial product is uncertain, with the possibility of limited production in Japan if the concept comes to life.
The innovative design reflects Yamaha’s tendency to explore new paths in leaning vehicles, such as the Niken and Tricity models.
While the electric sidecar concept does not have confirmed production, it represents an interesting way to travel with pets and use the vehicle for other purposes. If realized, the C294 could offer a unique experience for pet lovers and those seeking alternative mobility solutions.
