The company doesn’t have any BS 6 bikes in the portfolio currently, the Panigale V2 will be the first BS 6-compliant motorcycle by Ducati in India. The Italian premium bike maker has already teased the Panigale V2 on its social media handles in the past. The test rides of the new V2 will begin in sometime and the company promises on deliveries right after the prices come out.

The Panigale V2 made its debut at the EICMA 2019, it is a successor to the outgoing 959 Panigale motorcycle.

Is it more powerful than the 959 Panigale?

The Panigale V2 sources power from a 955 cc super-quadro L-twin motor that’s good enough to return 155 PS of maximum power at 10,750 rpm and this power is backed-up by a peak torque output of 104 Nm at 9,000 rpm. For the record, as against its predecessor, the peak power and torque has gone up by 5 PS and 2 Nm.

The Panigale V2 has received a slew of major design updates against the model it replaces. Its sports a new fairing and has a heavily tweaked headlamp cluster. Moreover there is also a new exhaust unit which sits below the engine. All these changes make it look like a smaller version of the Panigale V4 superbike.
