Ducati India has given its fans and potential buyers a lot to look forward to in 2024. The Italian brand has announced that it will launch as many as eight new motorcycles in India this year and expand its dealership reach by adding two more stores in the country.
In the adventure touring segment, Ducati will introduce the more off-road-focused Rally edition of the DesertX and the RS iteration of the Multistrada V4. The latter is the most performance-oriented version of the Multistrada ever, with top-tier components like forged Marchesini wheels, fully adjustable Ohlins suspension, and Brembo Stylema brake calipers. Interestingly, Ducati also intends to introduce the Hypermotard 698 Mono which is the Italian marque’s first-ever single-cylinder road-going Hypermotard.
The high-performance sportbike space will witness the introduction of the Panigale V4 Racing Replica 2023 and the Panigale V4 SP2 30th Anniversario 916 edition. The latter is an ultra-exclusive offering with the livery paying homage to the 1999 Superbike World Championship winning machine, the Ducati 996 which is a descendent of the 916. Moreover, the naked bike enthusiasts will get to feast their eyes on the new Streetfighter V4S and the Monster 30th Anniversario. Last but not least, the Diavel for Bentley, which draws inspiration from Bentley’s Bantur, will also grace our shores.
Ducati will kick things off by launching the Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini in the first quarter, followed by the introduction of the DesertX Rally, Hypermotard 698 Mono, and the new Streetfighter V4 range in Q2 2024. Furthermore, the Multistrada V4 RS and the Diavel for Bentley will make their India entry in Q4 in limited numbers. Official bookings for all these motorcycles are already open at all Ducati dealerships.
