Yamaha Sports Ride Coupe

Weighing in at a mere 1,653-pounds, the Yamaha Sports Ride Coupe is set to hit the showroom by 2017. This sports car features a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive layout, and is just 13-feet long and 5.65-feet wide, making it relatively compact even for its class. Even though the company is mainly known for their musical instruments and motorcycles, they did 3 working prototypes of the V12-powered, OX99-11 supercar, back in 1992.

“However unlike the OX99-11, the Sports Ride Coupe won’t be fitted with a V12. Yamaha are yet to make a definitive decision on the drivetrain, but a turbocharged 3-cylinder, 1.5-liter unit has been mentioned,” according to Diseno-Art.
