Ducati Scrambler Nightshift launched in Emerald Green at ₹13.74 lakh
- The Ducati Scrambler Nightshift gets a new Emerald Green paint scheme for 2026 while retaining its 803 cc L-Twin engine and cafe racer-inspired styling.
Ducati India has launched the 2026 Scrambler Nightshift in a new Emerald Green colour scheme at a price of ₹13.74 lakh (ex-showroom). The new paint option replaces the earlier colour available on the motorcycle and is the primary update for the 2026 model year. Bookings for the motorcycle are now open across Ducati dealerships in India.
The Scrambler Nightshift continues to be the most cafe racer-inspired offering in the Scrambler range, combining retro styling with modern technology.
New Emerald Green paint inspired by 1970s motorsport
The biggest highlight of the updated Scrambler Nightshift is its Emerald Green paint finish. Ducati says the colour draws inspiration from iconic two- and four-wheeled racing machines of the 1970s, giving the motorcycle a more distinctive appearance.

The motorcycle retains its signature cafe racer styling cues, including a flat handlebar with bar-end mirrors, a sculpted seat with contrast stitching, black wire-spoke wheels, and a combination of gloss and matte finishes across the bodywork. Minimal front and rear mudguards, along with compact LED indicators, complete the design.
Updated clutch for smoother operation
Apart from the cosmetic update, Ducati has also introduced a mechanical improvement. The Scrambler Nightshift now features a new eight-plate clutch paired with the air-cooled Desmodue engine.
According to Ducati, the redesigned clutch is smoother in operation and more compact, reducing the motorcycle's lateral width while offering additional space around the rider's foot. The company also claims the updated model is around 4 kg lighter than its predecessor, which should make it easier to manoeuvre in urban conditions and while cornering.
Engine and hardware remain unchanged
Powering the Ducati Scrambler Nightshift is the familiar 803 cc air-cooled L-Twin Desmodue engine, producing 72 bhp and 65.2 Nm of peak torque. The engine is mated to a six-speed gearbox.
The motorcycle continues to use a steel trellis frame suspended by 41 mm upside-down front forks and a rear monoshock. It rides on 18-inch front and 17-inch rear wire-spoke wheels wrapped in road-focused tyres.
