Ducati motorcycles of 2021

Learn more about Ducati

with the 2021 model year, Ducati relaunches the maxi-trail arms race. The Multistrada V4 introduces a new 1158 cm3 4-cylinder derived from the Panigale and Streetfighter V4. The MTS will be available in Standard, S and S Sport versions, while the Scrambler family is cleaning up its act with the disappearance of the 1100 Standard, Special and Sport, the scrapping of the 400 Sixty2 and the end of the 800 Café Racer and Full Throttle, replaced by the new Nightshift.

for thrill-seekers and circuit enthusiasts, Superbikes welcome the arrival of a Panigale V4 SP. The XDiavel family is recomposed, with the base model becoming Dark, the top-of-the-range S, and a muscle-car-inspired Black Star version - power increased to 160 hp. The Diavels also gain power, 162 from now on, and a superb Lamborghini limited series. The SuperSport 939 becomes the 950 with a 'Panigalesque' front-end relifting.

in the roadster segment, the new Monster (937 cm3) is virtually a blank sheet of paper, and changes from start to finish. It takes over from the 821, which, like its Stealth version, is no more. The entry-level version, the 797, also leaves the catalog.
