The Ducati Diavel V4 RS has been officially unveiled as the company's most powerful muscle cruiser. It has 180bhp at 11,750rpm and can reach 0-100km/h in 2.5 seconds. It uses the Desmosedici Stradale V4 engine that is also found in the Panigale series.
For performance, there's a six-speed gearbox, STM EVO dry clutch, and a new quickshifter for faster and smoother gear changes. There are three power modes and four riding modes including Sport, Touring, Wet, and Race – a first for the Diavel.
It's also 3kg lighter than the normal Diavel thanks to carbon fiber parts, titanium exhaust tips, and a lithium battery. The weight is now 223kg. There's Öhlins suspension, Brembo brakes, and new 240/45 Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tires for more solid handling and braking.
For design, there is a carbon single-seat tail, red Brembo calipers, and titanium details. There are additional practical features such as rear cylinder deactivation to save heat and fuel, plus optional accessories such as panniers and a windscreen. It is expected to arrive in Europe this December 2025 and in the USA and other countries in January 2026. Price estimated at ₱1.9M – ₱2.1M depending on the market.
