Ducati recently revealed its launch plan for 2024, which includes eight bikes, continuing its trend of releasing new models to the Indian market every year. This year, the Italian brand will introduce models such as the Multistrada V4 RS, Panigale V4 Racing replica 2023, Diavel Bentley and Panigale V4 SP2 30 Anniversario 916 in India. Along with this, the company promises to expand its dealer network in India, with at least two new showrooms in India this year.
Speaking on the announcement, Bipul Chandra, MD, Ducati India, said, “2023 marked a historic year for Ducati by winning the first ever Indian MotoGP race at BIC and by successfully defending both the MotoGP and WSBK titles. We are also thrilled to report that despite the absence of the Scrambler range for the first three quarters of 2023, we were able to meet our planned volumes with maximum sales coming from marquee brands like Panigale V4, Multistrada V4 and Diavel V4.”
He added, “It’s incredibly satisfying to see the popularity of the V4 platform in India and I would like to thank the motorcycling community for appreciating the style, sophistication, and performance of our product range, which is the largest for any big bike brand in the country. We are excited to introduce 8 new Ducati motorcycles, along with 2 new dealerships and are looking forward to a promising 2024 for Ducati in India.”
Ducati is going to introduce the Streetfigher V4 Lamborghini in extremely few numbers in the first quarter of 2024. The DesertX Rally, Hypermotard 698 Mono and the new Streetfigher V4 will be launched in Q2. The Multistrada V4 RS and the Diavel for Bentley will end the year, with the latter available in limited numbers.
Furthermore, the brand will launch the very exclusive Ducati Panigale V4 Racing Replica 2023 motorcycles, which are effectively based on the racing liveries of Pecco Bagnaia, Jorge Martin and Marco Bezzecchi’s MotoGP racing motorcycles.
The brand has not yet disclosed the prices of the models, but in January 2024, estimated prices will be announced on the brand’s website.
