Ducati has officially launched the Panigale V4 Tricolore in India at a price of ₹77 lakh (ex-showroom). This ultra-exclusive collector’s edition superbike is limited to 1,000 numbered units worldwide, with only a very small allocation reserved for the Indian market. Bookings are now open.
The Panigale V4 Tricolore has been introduced as a tribute to Ducati’s Italian heritage and racing pedigree. Inspired by the legendary 1984 Ducati 750 F1, the model marks four decades of the iconic Tricolore livery. Over the years, the Tricolore badge has been reserved for Ducati’s most exclusive motorcycles, starting with the Ducati 851 Desmoquattro in 1988.
This latest Tricolore continues that tradition by blending historical design cues with Ducati’s most advanced superbike platform.
Designed by Aldo Drudi in collaboration with Centro Stile Ducati, the Panigale V4 Tricolore is based on the latest-generation Panigale V4.
The motorcycle features a new asymmetric Tricolore livery combining:
White, red and green bodywork
Black-and-white chequered flag graphics on the lower fairing
Number ‘1’ plates on the front and side fairings mirror Ducati’s race-focused models such as the Panigale V4 R and Multistrada Pikes Peak.
The Tricolore showcases the redesigned aerodynamic surfaces introduced with the 2025 Panigale V4, which marks Ducati’s transition to the seventh generation of its superbike platform.
These updates are part of a broader evolution that includes:
Revised chassis architecture
Integrated aerodynamics
Advanced electronic systems
For the first time in Ducati’s history, a Tricolore model receives major track-focused hardware. The Panigale V4 Tricolore comes equipped with five-spoke carbon fibre wheels, which are approximately 0.9 kg lighter than the forged wheels on the Panigale V4 S.
This results in:
12% reduction in front rotational inertia
19% reduction in rear rotational inertia
The benefit is sharper handling, improved agility and faster directional changes on track.
Another standout feature is the Front Brake Pro braking system, a world-first for a production motorcycle.
Twin 338.5 mm Brembo T-Drive finned discs
Disc thickness: 6.2 mm
Brembo Hypure calipers with anthracite anodising
Derived directly from World Superbike-spec components, the system was tested by Ducati factory riders during the 2024 Race of Champions.
Braking performance is further enhanced by a Brembo MCS 19.21 master cylinder with remote lever adjustment, similar to setups used in MotoGP and WorldSBK.
Powering the Panigale V4 Tricolore is Ducati’s 1,103 cc Desmosedici Stradale V4 engine, delivering:
216 bhp at 13,500 rpm
122 Nm of torque at 11,250 rpm
Ducati Front Frame chassis architecture
17-litre aluminium fuel tank
Wet weight (without fuel): 188 kg, making it around 3 kg lighter than the Panigale V4 S
Suspension duties are handled by Ducati Electronic Suspension (DES) 3.0, featuring:
Ohlins NPX-30 pressurised front fork
Ohlins TTX36 rear shock
Managed by Ohlins Smart EC 3.0 system
Electronically controlled Ohlins steering damper
Electronics include:
Ducati Vehicle Observer (DVO)
Race eCBS
These systems reinforce the bike’s race-ready and track-focused credentials.

Dry clutch
Adjustable billet aluminium footpegs
Alcantara seat
Racing windscreen
GPS module

Front and rear mudguards

These components are not homologated for road use.
