The new Japanese sportsbike is the quickest R1 yet, boasting a third-generation, all-new 998cc
inline 4-cylinder engine, which was tuned with lessons learned from Yamaha's M1 MotoGP bike.
The petrol version of the car is powered by Dynamic Force 2.5-litre
inline 4-cylinder engine with VVT-Ie through an 8-speed Direct Shift Automatic Transmission, while hybrid models are powered by the Dynamic Force 2.5-litre inline 4-cylinder Toyota Hybrid System II (THS II) engine with Electronically-Controlled Continuously Variable Transmission (ECVT).
