Ducati XDiavel X4 rolling off production line now ahead of August arrival

New Ducati XDiavel V4: the Sport Cruiser according to Ducati

2025 Ducati XDiavel V4

Production of the new XDiavel V4 has kicked off at Ducati’s Borgo Panigale plant, ten years after the birth of the first XDiavel. The muscular and also somewhat elegant XDiavel has been reinvented for 2025 and is now powered by the mechanical marvel that is Ducati’s 1158 cc GranTurismo V4. It will arrive in Australia this August and retail from $46,500 Ride Away.

With 168 horsepower, along with a prodigious, smooth and linear torque curve that peaks at 126 Nm by 7500 rpm, this engine relentlessly builds effortless thrust from just above idle right through to beyond 11,000 rpm.

Cruiser or Dragster…? The XDiavel is capable of both…

With the XDiavel tipping the scales at 229 kg that makes it lighter than some learner legal cruisers with a quarter of the power. The XDiavel can crack 100 km/h in less than three seconds.  Brembo Stylema calipers ensure equally impressive braking performance.

Gone are the high maintenance requirements required with Ducati’s of old, this engine runs conventional valve springs, no Desmo, and requires clearance checks only every 60,000 km.

In the XDiavel, that thrust is put down via a fat 240/45 Pirelli Diablo Rosso III rear tyre. It hooks up well enough to loft the front skyward, if the mood takes you… As I demonstrated below on the original XDiavel back in 2016.  .

The rider sits low at 770 mm and reaches to bars that are set back and lowered, compared to the XDiavel 1260.  Ducati claims that comfort is substantially improved, thanks to the rear suspension with increased travel of 25 mm compared to the XDiavel 1260 and, above all, a wide, well-profiled and thicker seat.

The passenger can also count on a more spacious (+30% in width, +50% in length) and comfortable (+25 mm thick) seat, a rear grab handle is supplied as standard.

Enthusiasts who prefer a riding position that allows them to exploit the dynamic qualities of the XDiavel V4 can move the footpegs to a more rearward position thanks to the special kit offered by the Ducati catalogue. And if equipped with the accessory tail fairing, the XDiavel V4 can also become a single-seater.

The rider can fully and safely exploit the performance of the XDiavel V4 thanks to a comprehensive electronics package.

The XDiavel V4 offers three Power Modes and four Riding Modes: Sport, Touring, Urban and Wet, thanks to which the rider can adapt the engine delivery and the intervention of the riding assistance systems – Ducati Traction Control in Cornering version, Ducati Wheelie Control and ABS Cornering.

Cruise Control makes highway cruising more relaxing, while Ducati Quick Shift up/down, derived from that of the new Panigale V4, makes shifting cogs a joy. Finally, Launch Control guarantees blazing starts when you want to make the most of the acceleration performance of the XDiavel V4.

The rider can manage all the electronic systems via the backlit controls on the handlebars and the new 6.9” TFT colour dashboard with an 8:3 aspect ratio, first introduced on the Panigale V4.

The dashboard also offers Bluetooth connectivity to pair the smartphone for calls, text messages and music, or use the Turn-by-turn navigation system (available as an accessory) via the Ducati Link App.

The XDiavel V4 will be available in two metallic liveries Burning Red and Black Lava. For the first time, the XDiavel is offered in red, but a different red from the iconic Ducati Red and the brilliant Racing Red. Black Lava is the classic glossy black typical of the cruiser world with warm tones.

The Ducati Performance catalogue is also available for customising the XDiavel V4, starting from a central repositioning kit for the rider footpegs, continuing with raised or lowered seats, and arriving at the semi-rigid 48-litre cases with body-coloured covers that include a passenger backrest and integrated side handles.

The offer is completed by a homologated exhaust silencer, with cover and four titanium end caps, and a single-seater tailpiece that can be mounted in place of the passenger seat. To all this you can add components from solid, carbon parts, forged rims and brake calipers in red or black to further customise the new XDiavel V4.
