The Historic Triumph of Yamaha's Electric Trial Bike in Japan's Championships

Yamaha's Electric Trial Bike Makes History

Yamaha Motor Co. made headlines recently when Kenichi Kuroyama, riding for the Yamaha Factory Racing Team, achieved a groundbreaking victory at the All-Japan Trial Championship. This monumental win, which took place on November 2, 2025, during the eighth round of the series known as 'City Trial Japan 2025' in the International A-Class Super (IAS) category, marks the first time an electric bike has won a championship title in this class.

A New Era of Electric Trials

Trial biking is a unique motorsport that demands exceptional skill as riders navigate through natural rock formations and artificial obstacles on their bikes. In 2018, Yamaha took a significant step toward promoting a carbon-neutral society by introducing its first electric trial bike, the 'TY-E.' This innovative approach has caught the attention of motorsport enthusiasts, as it promises a future where competitions can be conducted with minimal environmental impact.

EcoFlow Technology Japan, renowned for its portable power solutions and leadership in clean energy technologies, has been a sponsor of the Yamaha Factory Racing Team since April of this year. This collaboration aligns with EcoFlow's corporate social responsibility initiative, 'EcoFlow Power For All,' which aims to contribute to a sustainable society.

Supporting the Team with Clean Energy Solutions

In 2024, EcoFlow began supplying portable power stations, including the DELTA Pro 3, to support the team. This partnership has facilitated a 'quiet, clean, and smart' charging experience, ensuring that racing events can proceed with minimal environmental footprints. Traditional charging stations often rely on fuel-powered generators, leading to noise and air pollution, which posed considerable challenges for electric motorsport. However, the introduction of EcoFlow's products aims to move toward a zero-emissions motorsport experience.

As a sign of commitment following their landmark victory, EcoFlow has introduced its latest high-capacity portable power station, the 'DELTA 3 Ultra Plus,' to further support the team. This powerful product can handle solar charging up to 1,600W and offers 1,000W of charging while racing, ensuring rapid recharging and expanded capacity through additional batteries.

Comments from Kenichi Kuroyama

Kenichi Kuroyama expressed gratitude for the portable power solutions provided by EcoFlow, stating that they have become indispensable during competitions, especially for charging bike batteries. He also emphasized the importance of having power during test rides in remote locations, acknowledging how crucial the portable power stations have become as everyday partners in his racing career.

Event Day Showcase by EcoFlow

During the championship event, EcoFlow set up a dedicated booth next to Yamaha's, showcasing new products and offering charging experiences for attendees. A demonstration of charging the trial bike's battery using the 'DELTA 3 Ultra Plus' drew significant attention from the visitors, underscoring the synergy between efficiency and sustainability in the motorsports arena.

EcoFlow continues to provide clean energy solutions through its innovative portable power stations while supporting athletes and staff in ensuring environmentally-friendly race operations.
