It seem that with the start of the car that is under joint development and production by Toyota and Yamaha, it has also supplied the engines to Ford and Volvo.

The strength of Yamaha is the high speed, lightweight and compactness based on the technology cultivated for the 2-wheeler. Recently, Yamaha is supplying the V6 engine of 2.5L for Lexus IS/GS, Crown, and Mark X, in addition to the joint development and production for the V10 engine of Lexus "LFA".
