Yamaha is one of the oldest corporations in the world producing musical instruments, sound equipment, sports equipment, etc.

Yamaha began to produce snowmobiles from the beginning of the 60s of the last century, and already in 1968 the mass production of this equipment began. The company's products were oriented to the US and Canada markets.

A feature of Yamaha snowmobiles is that their motor was borrowed from motorcycles, due to this, snowmobiles received additional aggression. Every year, Yamaha increased production, and by 1983, 500 thousand units of equipment had rolled off its conveyors, and by 1997, the line of one million snowmobiles had been overcome.

Production facilities are located in both Japan and the United States. Yamaha is considered the most successful manufacturer of snowmobiles, if we consider their financial performance. The Japanese manufacturer employs more than 40 thousand employees worldwide. The domestic market of Japan in the total share of sales occupies only 12%; the remaining 88% is exports.

The modern market divides snowmobiles into:

  • Utilitarian;
  • Tourist;
  • Sports;
  • Mountain.
