Ducati Panigale V2 - Latest News, Updates & Reviews
October 30, 2025 - India Launch at Rs 19.12 Lakh Ducati India launched the 2025 Panigale V2 and V2 S at Rs 19,11,900 and Rs 21,09,900 (ex-showroom) respectively. The launch was notable for two headline moves: a smaller 890cc engine replacing the 955cc Superquadro, and a price cut of Rs 1.56 Lakh versus the outgoing model. Ducati positioned both as deliberate choices aligned with the Colin Chapman weight-reduction philosophy, citing Vallelunga lap time data showing only a 0.2-second deficit per lap versus the heavier predecessor.
November 2024 - World Unveil at EICMA 2024 The 2025 Panigale V2 was first revealed to the world at the EICMA show in Milan in November 2024. The announcement prompted significant online discussion about the power reduction - from 155 PS to 120 PS - which Ducati defended by pointing to the 17 kg weight saving and the elimination of the Desmodromic valve system.
January 2026 - India Deliveries Begin Deliveries of both variants commenced in India in January 2026. Early owner reports and first-ride impressions from Indian media and YouTube reviewers were broadly positive, with particular praise for the lightweight feel, the quality of the Brembo braking hardware, and the improved everyday usability of the new engine.
May 2026 - Confirmed Price Increase from June 1 Ducati India announced a price revision of up to 5% across its full India lineup effective June 1, 2026. The Panigale V2 STD at Rs 19,11,900 and V2 S at Rs 21,09,900 are valid only until May 31, 2026.

Ducati India announced a price increase of up to 5% across its full lineup effective June 1, 2026, citing rising operational costs and inflation. The Panigale V2 STD (currently Rs 19,11,900) and V2 S (Rs 21,09,900) are among the models affected - buyers should purchase before May 31, 2026 to lock in current pricing.
Deliveries of the 2025 Ducati Panigale V2 STD (Rs 19,11,900) and Panigale V2 S (Rs 21,09,900) commenced across Ducati India's authorised dealership network in January 2026, following the October 2025 India launch. Early owner reports praised the lightweight feel and improved electronics.
Ducati India launched the all-new 2025 Panigale V2 on October 30, 2025 at Rs 19,11,900 for the STD and Rs 21,09,900 for the V2 S - Rs 1.56 Lakh cheaper than the outgoing 955cc model. The new bike uses a 890cc V-twin producing 120 PS and weighs 179 kg, making it the lightest Panigale ever. The Desmodromic valve system has been replaced by conventional spring valves with 45,000 km service intervals.
Ducati unveiled the all-new 2025 Panigale V2 at EICMA 2024 in Milan in November 2024, replacing the 955cc Superquadro-engined model with a lighter 890cc V-twin. The announcement generated widespread discussion about the 35 PS power reduction, which Ducati defended with Vallelunga lap time data showing only a 0.2-second deficit per lap versus the heavier predecessor.
Watch for further Ducati Panigale V2 updates through 2026: a limited-edition special variant - potentially a Bayliss tribute, following the success of the previous-generation Bayliss edition in India - is widely anticipated within the lifecycle. International markets may also see additional colour options announced; Indian availability typically follows 6-12 months after global release.
