Ducati XDiavel V4 teased ahead of India launch. Bookings open for this 168hp V4 cruiser with 770mm seat, chain drive. Expected Rs 30-32 lakh vs Diavel V4.
Ducati XDiavel V4 brings cruiser comfort to the brand’s V4 firepower, teased officially for India with bookings now open. This power cruiser shares its heart with the Diavel V4 but relaxes the ride for longer hauls.
XDiavel V4 Engine Power
The Ducati XDiavel V4 packs a 1,158cc V4 Granturismo engine, liquid-cooled with a 90-degree layout and counter-rotating crankshaft. It delivers 168hp at 10,750rpm and 126Nm at 7,500rpm, matching the Diavel V4’s output for explosive acceleration. Ducati switched to chain drive from the old belt, adding 6kg but keeping maintenance straightforward on this 229kg beast (wet, no fuel).
Fuel injection uses 46mm elliptical throttle bodies with ride-by-wire, paired to a 6-speed gearbox and Ducati Quick Shift up/down. Expect Euro 5+ compliance, 154g/km CO2, and 6.6l/100km consumption for efficient long rides. Riders praise its smooth torque delivery in Urban or Wet modes, dropping to 115hp for city control.
Cruiser Ergonomics Shine
Forward-set footpegs and swept-back handlebars create a laid-back triangle, unlike the sportier Diavel V4. Seat height sits at 770mm, 20mm lower than Diavel, with a wider pillion perch for two-up comfort. Optional mid footpegs let riders tweak posture further.
Wheelbase stretches to 1,620mm with 29-degree rake and 124mm trail for rock-solid stability. Pirelli Diablo Rosso III tires on 17-inch cast alloy wheels (120/70 front, 240/45 rear) grip highways and corners alike. Suspension features a 50mm adjustable USD fork up front (120mm travel) and rear monoshock (145mm).
Braking and Handling Edge
Dual 330mm front discs with Brembo Stylema 4-piston calipers and a 265mm rear disc ensure cornering ABS bites hard. The XDiavel V4 feels nimble despite its weight, thanks to MotoGP-derived crankshaft tech slashing gyroscopic forces. Reviews call it stable at 80mph lane changes, blending cruiser chill with superbike agility.
Advanced Electronics Suite
A 6.9-inch TFT dash from Panigale V4 models offers 1,280×480 resolution, navigation, and Ducati Multimedia System connectivity. Riding modes include Sport, Touring, Urban, Wet; power modes tweak throttle from full 168hp to gentler Low. Cornering ABS, Traction Control, Wheelie Control, cruise control, and hands-free ignition round out the package.
Dynamic turn indicators, full-LED lights, and backlit switches add premium touches. Fuel tank holds 20 liters for extended range.
India Launch Buzz
Ducati India teased the XDiavel V4 on social media, with bookings open at dealerships ahead of a January 2026 debut. Positioned above the Rs 29.08 lakh Diavel V4, expect Rs 30-32 lakh ex-showroom. It slots into premium cruisers, challenging Triumph Rocket 3 with Italian flair.
Global arrivals started May 2025, building hype for India’s performance-hungry riders. Warranty covers 24 months unlimited mileage, with 15,000km oil services.

Design That Turns Heads
Sleek muscular lines dominate, with alloy wheels echoing the flowing silhouette minus Diavel’s sharp creases. Stainless exhaust with quad outlets growls deep, while the mono-coque aluminum frame underpins it all. Passenger handles come standard; it’s ready for accessories like mid-pegs.
This isn’t your grandpa’s cruiser—Ducati XDiavel V4 fuses V4 punch with relaxed vibes, perfect for highways from Mumbai to Goa. Early tests highlight its rain-ready Wet mode and Touring comfort for Verdon Gorge twists.
Why XDiavel V4 Stands Out
- Power Meets Chill: 168hp V4 in a 770mm-seat cruiser defies norms.
- Tech Overload: 6.9-inch TFT, quickshifter, and adaptive modes for any road.
- India-Ready: Bookings live, priced for enthusiasts eyeing Rs 30 lakh premium segment.
- Versus Diavel: Relaxed pegs, lower seat, chain drive; same grunt, cruiser soul.
Ducati XDiavel V4 redefines power cruising, blending speed, style, and usability for riders craving more than sportbike aggression. With India launch nearing, it’s set to steal spotlight in showrooms.
