YAMAHA ANNOUNCES 2022 SNOWMOBILES, ELECTRIC POWER STEERING & ONLINE DEPOSITS FOR 2022!

March 9th, 2021 - Yamaha is excited to announce the launch of it’s 2022 Snowmobiles, the Spring Power Surge (SPS) Sales Program and new functionality on American & Canadian websites that allows customers to place deposits online.

2022 Model Highlights

• New Sidewinder L-TX GT EPS
• New Sidewinder S-TX GT EPS
• New Mountain Max LE 154 SL
• New Transporter Lite 2-UP

Yamaha enters 2022 with the new snowmobiles and technology improvements that riders are asking for. Returning are the LE, GT, SE and 400 series of snowmobiles, complimented by Utility, Two-up and Youth models.

2022 will see 6 LE models available, led by the legendary Sidewinder SRX and 3 versions of the Mountain Max, including the Mountain Max LE 154 Super Lite, or SL for short. The pull start only SL puts a premium on weight savings with shortened mountain seat and revised fuel tank, but still employs a 3” lug. Customers wanting an LE model will need to place a deposit during SPS to secure their snowmobile for next season.

Big news comes in the form of Electric Power Steering (EPS) and its inclusion on the Sidewinder L-TX GT EPS and Sidewinder S-TX GT EPS. Yamaha’s research demonstrated that many previous Apex and Vector customers viewed EPS as a crucial factor in their willingness to upgrade to a newer model.

The time is now. Yamaha’s variable EPS system eases the powerful turbo through twisty trails - but also isolates the rider from unwanted handlebar resistance fed back through the mechanical steering system from the trail. The light steering effort and handling precision is unrivaled when it comes to long days in the saddle. The GT models are available in-season, but smart customers will be placing their deposit in the spring to lock in their rides.

Yamaha’s 400 series saw strong sales in the first year, and for 2022 the addition of the Transporter Lite 2-UP provides an economical and efficient option for new and returning riders who want to get on snow together. The addition of the Transporter Lite 2-UP provides a 400 series model for trail, mountain, utility and touring applications.

2022 Spring Power Surge Highlights

• Priority Delivery
• 3 Years of Factory Warranty (4-stroke models only)
• Instant Customer Rebates or VISA Gift Cards
• Low Finance Rates
• FREE FXR Transporter Gear Bag

Over the years, Yamaha’s Spring Power Surge has cemented itself as the only time to get the most sought after upgraded LE snowmobiles, but also the best deal of the year for loyal customers. The 2022 program will run from March 9th - April 17th.

Online Deposits

• New Online Deposits

Last year’s SPS season demonstrated it can never be too convenient for a customer to place a deposit on a new Yamaha snowmobile. Canadian customers now have the added flexibility of placing deposits on www.yamaha-motor.ca in addition to the traditional method of placing a deposit at a desired dealer.

American customers will be required to place all deposits online at www.yamahasnowmobiles.com in order to secure their snowmobile.

Customers who choose to place a deposit online will select a dealer to conduct the purchase with while placing the deposit. Dealers are notified when a deposit is placed and will follow up with the customer directly concerning the final purchase package, accessory or apparel options and any other pertinent information. When the customer’s unit arrives in the fall, Yamaha will apply the deposit to the package price.

Yamaha is confident the increased convenience of online deposits will make it easier for new and returning customers to enjoy a 2022 snowmobile. Yamaha feels this is an important feature to adopt with the significant upward trend in online consumer purchasing behaviour.

The 2022 Yamaha Snowmobiles offer something for everyone, with two-stroke and four-stroke options, youth to adult, utility to trail to mountain to touring. New riders are just as welcome as experienced and securing your ride for next year has never been easier!
