Ducati Scrambler 2G range to launch soon in India, bookings open
- The Scrambler is the best-selling motorcycle for Ducati.
Ducati India has started accepting bookings for the Scramber 2G which will be going on sale in the Indian market soon. The Scrambler is known for being the best-selling Ducati in India. The motorcycle will be sold in three variants - Icon, Full Throttle and Nightshift. The manufacturer already announced the prices of the motorcycles. The Icon 2G will be priced at ₹10.39 lakh whereas the Full Throttle 2G and Nightshift 2G will cost ₹12 lakh. These prices are ex-showroom.
The manufacturer has managed to reduce the weight of the Scrambler by 4 kg. To do this, there is a new bolt-on sub-frame which is lighter than before. The engine has also been revised so it gets some new components. However, it is still an 803 cc, two-valve, Desmoduo unit that is air-oil cooled. It produces 73 bhp at 8,250 rpm and 65 Nm at 7,000 rpm. It is paired with a six-speed gearbox.
