This innovative system is an industry-first for Yamaha. One click on the remote transmitter button engages a special "L" mode (Low RPM) to limit top speed – ideal for controlled manoeuvring. For your security and peace of mind, pushing a second button disables the ignition, preventing an accidental start-up – or an unauthorised joyride.
A mono-formed exterior is sleek and imposing in the water. An aggressive profile is accentuated by a 'fast back' style: the slant from the rear of the seat to the extended rear platform. An add-on engine air intake – in true hot rod style – features on the bow. Finishing design flourishes express the VXS's sporty character.
The 'fast back' profile of the new VXS reveals its sport character. An extended rear platform doesn't only look good – it's also a practical area to rest and put on or take off your snorkeling or wakeboarding gear. The strong tow hook is another pointer towards the VXS having a true sporting spirit combined with real practicality.
All the information you need is available at a glance. While the tachometer displays RPM data, a fuel gauge tells you when it's time to refuel. An hour counter keeps track of running time. There's also a full set of warning functions.
The combination of an extremely lightweight hull and deck – constructed using NanoXcel® technology – helps achieve superb acceleration, top speed, agility and fuel efficiency. NanoXcel® creates an incredibly strong intermolecular bond and a smoother surface compared to conventional manufacturing methods. It's also 25% lighter.
A semi-V multi-chine hull allows the VXS to offer the full package: neutral handling, movement stability, and comfort. With a round keel, optimum balance and grip is provided during cornering. And overall, the shape of the VXS is designed for one thing: agility on the water.
First introduced by Yamaha in 1986, WaveRunners are famed for their agility and performance on the water. Today, they benefit from Yamaha's renowned expertise in the development of efficient 4-stroke engine technology.
Introduced to the line-up in 2011, VXS and VXR models combine sports-style VX hulls – using innovative NanoXcel® technology, for extremely lightweight handling – and a new engine package in the sector: big, powerful, 1812cc units that produce phenomenal acceleration and topline power.
Offering a new, accessible level of performance to watersports enthusiasts, the VXS is all about having fun on the water.
The VXS heralds a new generation of watercraft. With a 4-cylinder DOHC 1.8 litre, High Output engine delivering the largest displacement in the industry, the result is astonishing acceleration. And, with unprecedented levels of efficiency, the engine sets a new benchmark that others can only follow.
The VXS proves that a watercraft can be powerful – offering awesome acceleration and agility – and efficient too. In short, this is affordable performance on a new level.
The ultra-lightweight, high-tech NanoXcel® hull and deck is teamed with a powerful 1812cc High Output engine to deliver astonishing acceleration. The semi-V multi-chine hull is designed to deliver precise, confidence-giving handling – even with 3 people on board – so you can leave heavier craft trailing in your wake.
Finished in an eye-catching black and metalllic colour scheme with a hot-rod style front air intake, the VXS doesn't only make waves on the water – it also turns heads. Unleash its power
