The new PW-X3 generates 85 Nm torque, matching the Bosch Performance Line CX and the Shimano EP8 motor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Japanese engineers developed the new PW-X3 drive system for lightweight, sporty e-MTBs. Like its predecessors, the PW-X3 also boasts the ergonomic 128mm ISIS interface bottom bracket axle that gives the best Q-factor of any e-bike system. Yamaha Motor&#8217;s new PW-X3 continues with this ideal layout, making it especially attractive to advanced and professional riders. The Yamaha PW-X3 will be a prominent feature in the upcoming 2022 Haibike e-MTB range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The engineers at Yamaha have built a motor that provides instant support with full torque as soon as the rider applies pressure to the pedal, giving a natural and agile responsive feel. Especially in &#8220;Automatic Support Mode&#8221;, when the drive software selects the mode best suited to the riding situation, whether steep climbs, rocky trails, sandy or muddy terrain \u2013 all are easily conquered!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The 2022 Yamaha Interface X<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/license.citruslime.com\/cs\/blogs\/electricbikesales\/2022-Yamaha-interface-x_39C2EC2F.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/license.citruslime.com\/cs\/blogs\/electricbikesales\/2022-Yamaha-interface-x_thumb_205AE8F5.jpg\" alt=\"2022-Yamaha-interface-x\" title=\"2022-Yamaha-interface-x\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>A new motor needs a new interface, and it sounds like something from a sci-fi film; however, the Interface X is a science fact, not fiction, and boasts the latest eBike tech. The design is minimalist, ergonomic, and mounted above or below the stem to give a clean-looking cockpit and handlebar area. Colour-coded LEDs display the battery status and drive mode at a glance, all controlled with a user-friendly remote switch with easy-to-reach buttons that ensure fast and easy mode selection without the need for the rider to take their eyes off the trail ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/license.citruslime.com\/cs\/blogs\/electricbikesales\/2022-Yamaha-interface-x-computer_06F2E5BB.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/license.citruslime.com\/cs\/blogs\/electricbikesales\/2022-Yamaha-interface-x-computer_thumb_104EAAEF.jpg\" alt=\"2022-Yamaha-interface-x-computer\" title=\"2022-Yamaha-interface-x-computer\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2022 Yamaha External Crossover Battery<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This year Yamaha is expanding their range of batteries with a small lightweight external 500Wh battery thats compatible with the new, performance PW-X3 as well as the other motors in their range.
