Motorcycle specifications Ducati1100 Panigale V4 Lamborghini 2025 The demons of speed

Ducati abounds and saturates the market with special series, with a strong propensity for elitism. It would seem that the clientele for top-of-the-range motorcycles cannot quench this thirst. Will the new Panigale V4 Lamborghini succeed?
In any case, it's sure to stir many hearts and fantasies. For the third time, the Bologna and Sant'Agata brands have joined forces to create an object of haute couture and formidable velocity. A sports car at the cutting edge of efficiency, technology and desire, doped by the spirit of the Revuelto.
Big watts and big style
This hypercar follows a long line of models (Aventador, Murciélago, Diablo, Countach). As usual, it's powered by a V12 engine. In this case, the 6.5-liter block develops 825 hp and is combined with three electric units to produce 1015 hp.
The Panigale V4 claims a more modest 218.5 hp, but its power-to-weight ratio is much better. In any case, both cars share the same vision of extreme sport.
The Lamborghini saga at Ducati began with the Diavel, continued with the Streetfighter V4 and now touches on the Panigale V4. Its distinctive design is inspired by the Revuelto ad Personam, a creation of Lambo's customization department. To enhance the bike's identity and uniqueness, Ducat' fitted reworked winglets and forged aluminum rims whose design mirrors that of the Revuelto's wheels.
Then it's on to sporty luxury. The entire fairing is in carbon, as are a good number of parts. Overlays include machined aluminum components, a fork crown with laser-engraved serial number, an STM EVO-SBK dry clutch, and an Akrapovic exhaust that adds 2.5 hp to the big V4. With all its top-quality equipment, the Panigale V4 Lamborghini weighs in at 185 kilos, 2 kilos less than the S model.
The latter is already making an impression with its Öhlins steered suspension, razor-sharp chassis, top-notch electronics and demonic engine.
In addition to the S model (from which it is derived), this Panigale V4 also receives :
- Special Lamborghini livery
- Dedicated ignition key and dashboard animation
- Specific forged aluminum wheels
- Akrapovic exhaust
- Smoked racing bubble
- Alcantara seat
- Machined aluminum foot plates
- Machined aluminum control levers
- Machined fork crown with serial number
- Dry clutch
- Painted brake calipers
- Multiple carbon parts:
- Fairing
- Special winglets
- Front and rear mudguards
- Plate holders
- Heel guards
- Sprocket cover
- Swingarm guard
- Fuel tank cover
- Chain guard
- Exhaust manifold protector
- Dashboard interior
- Rear shell
- Cylinder head cover
- And a box of parts to prepare the bike for track use. Inside you'll find a racing fuel filler cap, a perforated clutch cover, carbon air ducts for cooling the calipers, a kit for removing the mirrors and plate bracket, and a stand.
Ducati also includes the bike's certificate of authenticity and a protective cover.
The whole package (bike + accessories) will be delivered in a wooden crate - itself enhanced by the brand to add premium value at every level.
The authority of prestige
Like other Lamborghini-branded Ducatis, the Panigale V4 will be produced in 630 units. To these will be added another 63 units of the even more exclusive "Speciale Cienti" derivative series. These will only be available to Lamborghini owners, who will be able to match the colors of their car to their Panigale V4, and customize the seat, brakes and wheels.... Ducati's design center will be at their service.
Why 630? Why 63? In reference to 1963, the year in which Ferruccio Lamborghini created his own car brand; in order to undercut Ferrari.
The Ducati Panigale V4 of the same name will require far more figures on the cheque to make it into a collection. At least 70,000. And a good deal more for the "Speciale Clienti".
