Ducati has teased the arrival of a new motorcycle, set to debut on February 13, and all signs point to the much-anticipated XDiavel V4. The silhouette hints at a low-slung, raked-out cruiser, aligning perfectly with the XDiavel’s signature stance.
With the standard Diavel already transitioning to a V4 engine, it’s only natural that its cruiser sibling follows suit. The previous-gen XDiavel, based on the V-Twin Diavel 1260, featured a relaxed riding position, a belt final drive instead of a chain, and a torque-heavy tune for low-end grunt. Expect similar refinements in the V4 version, with Ducati likely tweaking the 168hp, 126Nm Granturismo V4 engine for a cruiser-friendly power delivery.
The XDiavel has always stood apart with premium design touches, such as billet-machined mirrors and distinctive alloy wheels, enhancing its high-end appeal. While key mechanical elements from the Diavel V4 will likely carry over, Ducati could introduce exclusive styling and ergonomic tweaks to maintain the XDiavel’s unique identity.
Stay tuned for the official reveal as Ducati continues to redefine power cruisers with the XDiavel V4.
