The front fender and mirrors are also slightly different. The Yamaha E01 rides on 13-inch wheels on both ends, with dual-channel ABS. Keyless starting and operation, as well as various riding modes will be standard.

We expect Yamaha to launch the E01 globally around March or April 2022, but so far, there are no plans of an India launch.
