The 10 most eagerly awaited motorbikes at Eicma 2026
Ducati Panigale V4 model year 2027
Ducati has updated the Panigale V4 for the 2027 model year, making changes to the engine, chassis, aerodynamics and electronics with the aim of improving track performance. The 1,103 cc Desmosedici Stradale delivers 218 cv, two more than the previous version, thanks to modifications to the intake, exhaust and lubrication systems. The rev limiter is raised to 15,000 rpm from second to fifth gear. The chassis benefits from a revised Front Frame, whilst the new Dynamic Engine Brake and Race Brake Control systems optimise engine braking and braking on corner entry. According to Ducati, tests at Vallelunga showed an average improvement of four tenths of a second per lap. The Panigale V4 S is also part of the Factory Made programme, which offers a choice of 11 colour schemes, two liveries and numerous accessories fitted directly at the factory. It will be available next December with prices starting at 30,000 euros.
