Ducati unveils 5 new models at EICMA 2026

Ducati has pulled the covers off five new additions to its 2027 range in Milan

Ducati has used EICMA 2026 in Milan to unveil a new batch of motorcycles for its 2027 range, rolling out five fresh models ahead of the show’s traditional industry opening.

Headlining the announcements is the new Diavel V4, including the return of an S variant for the first time in the V4 era. Ducati says the MY27 update brings revised electronics and a new 6.9-inch TFT with navigation. The Diavel V4 S adds Öhlins SmartEC-3 semi-active suspension, plus a lithium-ion battery and heated grips, along with dedicated wheel finishes. Ducati has also expanded factory customisation for the model through its Ducati Factory Made program, allowing buyers to select liveries and components at the point of purchase.

Also new is the DesertX Rally, developed off Ducati’s latest DesertX platform built around the 890cc V2 engine, a monocoque frame and Full Floater rear suspension. Ducati is positioning the Rally as its more competition-leaning DesertX, with long-travel KYB suspension including a closed-cartridge fork, plus an Öhlins steering damper. The bike runs tubeless Takasago Excel rims in a 21-inch front and 18-inch rear combination.

Three limited-edition, numbered SP models were also revealed: the Panigale V4 SP, Panigale V2 SP and Streetfighter V4 SP. The Panigale V4 SP is based on the Panigale V4 MY27 and is equipped with carbon-fibre wheels, an STM EVO-SBK dry clutch and a race-oriented gearbox, alongside an aerodynamic update featuring larger wings and corner sidepods.

The Panigale V2 SP is being framed as Ducati’s homologation-style link to its planned World Supersport campaign, developed from the Panigale V2 S with Öhlins suspension, forged wheels, a longer swingarm and a dry clutch. The Streetfighter V4 SP arrives with Ducati’s Winter Test-style livery, carbon wheels, an STM EVO-SBK dry clutch and a Brembo MCS master cylinder, paired with electronic Öhlins suspension.

Beyond the new models, Ducati is rolling out new liveries for the XDiavel, Scrambler Full Throttle and Multistrada V2. The Scrambler Full Throttle gets a Heritage-inspired green and bronze scheme, while the XDiavel returns to a Black Edition. The Multistrada V2 adds a Sport livery influenced by the Multistrada Pikes Peak colour scheme.

Two RVE variants expand the Hypermotard range, with the Hypermotard 698 Mono RVE adopting an updated Graffiti-style livery and, where offered, Termignoni-approved silencers as standard. Ducati is also bringing the RVE treatment back to the Hypermotard V2 with a dedicated livery and added equipment.

Ducati also used the show to preview the Desmo250 EDS, following last year’s look at the Desmo450 EDS. Ducati says the Desmo250 EDS is due to reach European dealers in mid-2027.
