Milano, 4 November 2026 – Ducati arrives at EICMA with a series of new models, proudly displayed at Stand O82 in Hall 5. Following the models unveiled during the Ducati World Première 2027, the Borgo Panigale manufacturer presented no fewer than five all-new products in its final event of the year. The Diavel V4 becomes sportier and more sophisticated thanks to new electronic strategies, Öhlins semi-active suspension on the new V4 S, and its entry into the Ducati Factory Made programme. The DesertX Rally is the model Ducati has dedicated to rally raid and racing enthusiasts, developed around the new V2 engine while capitalising on feedback received and the experience gained through years of development.

EICMA is also the first opportunity to see in person the Monster Dark, unveiled digitally just a few days ago, along with the Multistrada V4 Grand Tour and Pikes Peak, and above all the Panigale V4 MY27, the latest evolution of Ducati's Superbike, incorporating all the innovations and technical solutions developed in racing.

Alongside the Panigale V4 MY27, three exclusive numbered-edition motorcycles are also making their debut: the Panigale V4 SP, designed to offer track day riders the ultimate on-track experience; the Streetfighter V4 SP, the highest expression of the Streetfighter family; and the Panigale V2 SP, created as the homologation model for the motorcycle that will compete in the Supersport World Championship from next year.

The Ducati 2027 range also introduces new and captivating liveries for the XDiavel, Multistrada V2 and Scrambler Full Throttle, together with the new Hypermotard 698 Mono RVE and Hypermotard V2 RVE. And exactly one year after the preview of the Desmo450 EDS, Ducati's first modern enduro bike, the Bologna-based manufacturer brings another exciting preview to EICMA: the Desmo250 EDS, which will be available in European dealerships in summer 2027.

At the Ducati stand it will also be possible to admire the complete range of new high-performance bicycles from the Ducati Cycling project. The Ducati 2027 range includes the Monoscocca racing road bike, the GraviaX performance gravel bike, and the two versions of the e-Enduro platform, DM-160 R and DM-170 RR.

Naturally, the stand also features the DesmosediciGP competing for the 2026 Riders' World Championship title with Marc Márquez, and the Panigale V2 that won the Lenovo V2 Future Champ Ducati Academy with Jesus Torres. Alongside them is the Panigale V4 R World Champion with Nicolò Bulega, a symbol of an extraordinary season for Borgo Panigale's production-derived machines.

In the Superbike World Championship, Ducati achieved a historic clean sweep, winning every race and securing its eighteenth Riders' World Title with Nicolò Bulega, its twenty-second Manufacturers' Title (from 39 championships held since the series began in 1988), and the Teams' Title. Ducati's superbike also claimed the riders' title in the EuroMoto Championship, the German SBK Championship, the British Superbike Championship (BSB), the Australian Superbike Championship (ASBK), the All-Japan Superbike Championship and the Asian continental series.

A season without equal, confirming a great tradition of sporting success. This legacy is combined with a history spanning one hundred years, globally recognised technological excellence, an unparalleled community and iconic design that unmistakably define Ducati's identity. A unique combination in the world, representing the value and strength of the Borgo Panigale manufacturer.

 

Ducati Factory Made

The introduction of the Diavel V4 and V4 S Model Year 2027 further enriches the Ducati Factory Made (DFM) programme, which allows customers to configure their motorcycle directly at purchase by selecting exclusive liveries, components and dedicated packages installed directly at the factory, further enhancing the unique and distinctive character of their Ducati. A dedicated display wall at the Ducati stand showcases the DFM programme and all its possibilities. Motorcycles displayed at the stand configured through DFM will feature a dedicated plaque highlighting their nature.

 

The Official Ducati Centenary Book

At the Ducati stand, visitors will also be able to pre-order the Official Ducati Centenary Book via a dedicated QR Code, through which the Borgo Panigale manufacturer celebrates the extraordinary milestone of its first one hundred years using the voices and images of the people who made that history possible. Enhancing the narrative is an artistic photographic section curated by Toni Thorimbert and dedicated to the Borgo Panigale factory.

A book that tells the story of the passion, courage, talent and vision that have accompanied Ducati throughout these 100 years and continue to drive it beyond every milestone.

 

“100 YEARS. 100 STORIES. 100 Defining Moments of Ducati's First Century”

To celebrate Ducati's centenary, the Borgo Panigale manufacturer has created an exhibition at EICMA 2026 retracing one hundred moments that helped shape its identity. Through a timeline spanning a century of history, visitors are guided on a journey through sporting successes, technological innovations and design icons that have made Ducati a globally recognised brand, with some of the most significant moments represented by the motorcycles and engines that played a leading role in them.

The exhibition, located at the South Entrance, offers the opportunity to see unique motorcycles from the Ducati Museum and archives, as well as extremely limited-production models. EICMA 2026 is in fact the final destination of the “100 Collection” journey, which began at the Italian Grand Prix at Mugello and continued through World Ducati Week, the Goodwood Festival of Speed and exhibitions at several museums throughout the Bologna area.

The exhibition will also showcase the incredible Superleggera V4 Centenario Tricolore and a selection of true jewels, including the MotoGP and Superbike machines that won with Capirossi, Stoner, Bagnaia, Fogarty and Bautista, as well as Marco Lucchinelli's 750 F1 BOT, Mike Hailwood's legendary 1978 Tourist Trophy-winning 900 SS, and Bruno Spaggiari's 750 Imola Desmo. The exhibition will remain open to the public throughout EICMA 2026.
