First unit of the highly exclusive Ducati Panigale V4 Lamborghini has been delivered In Mumbai
Sold out worldwide before most people even had a chance to see one in person – that is the reality of the Ducati Panigale V4 Lamborghini which has now been officially launched in India at Rs. 1 crore (ex-showroom). The first unit has already been delivered in Mumbai with the remaining India-allocated units accounted for.
It is the third chapter in the ongoing collaboration between two of Emilia-Romagna’s most iconic exports following the Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini and the Diavel 1260 Lamborghini. The inspiration for this motorcycle is the Lamborghini Revuelto – the Sant’Agata brand’s first hybrid super sports car packing 1,015 hp from a V12 internal combustion engine combined with three electric motors and a dual-clutch transverse gearbox.
The Revuelto sprints to 100 kmph in 2.5 seconds and tops out at 350 kmph. It is an appropriately extreme muse for what is Ducati’s most powerful and lightest road-legal Panigale to date. At the heart of the Panigale V4 Lamborghini sits the 1,103 cc Desmosedici Stradale engine which is good enough to generate 218.5 hp at 13,500 rpm and 122.1 Nm of torque at 11,250 rpm.
These figures made possible by a dedicated engine calibration and an Akrapovič titanium silencer with carbon end caps. The extensive use of carbon fibre across the bodywork, mudguards, heat shield, heel guard and other components combined with the titanium exhaust brings the dry weight down to 185 kg – nearly 2 kg lighter than the standard Panigale V4 S. The power-to-weight ratio comes in at 1.18 hp per kg.
The overall design is built around the Lamborghini livery as visible carbon fibre texture as the base with Verde Scandal, Grigio Telesto and Grigio Acheso detailing can be seen. The forged aluminium wheels are unique to this motorcycle and mirror the design of the Revuelto’s rims and the enhancements continue elsewhere too.
The tail piece, wings and seat have all been reworked by Ducati’s Centro Stile in close collaboration with Lamborghini’s design team with the carbon fibre weave including the herringbone pattern at symmetry intersections matching what is used on Lamborghini’s road cars. The chassis is built around the Panigale V4 S platform.
It features Ducati’s electronic suspension 3.0 with Öhlins NPX-30 fork, Öhlins TTX 36 shock absorber and an Öhlins steering damper managed through the Smart EC 3.0 system. The triple clamp is machined from billet aluminium and carries the model name and individual example number which is also laser-etched onto the ignition key’s aluminium badge and displayed through a dedicated dashboard animation at start-up.
Each of the 630 numbered examples is delivered in a custom wooden crate with a dedicated rear stand, personalised component box and a certificate of authenticity finished in the motorcycle’s own livery. Track-focused customers also get a billet aluminium racing fuel cap, carbon fibre brake calliper conveyors, an open clutch cover and a licence plate holder removal kit included in the package.
