Ducati has launched the new 2025 Streetfighter V4 and V4 S in India, setting a new benchmark for naked superbikes. Priced at ₹28.68 lakh for the V4 and ₹32.38 lakh for the V4 S (ex-showroom), these bikes promise extreme performance, stunning design, and advanced technology. Deliveries have officially begun across India.
Powerful Engine and Enhanced Performance
At the heart of the new Streetfighter lineup lies the 1,103cc Desmosedici Stradale V4 engine, which now meets Euro5+ and E20-fuel standards. It produces a massive 212bhp at 13,500rpm and 120Nm of torque, offering blistering acceleration and top-end performance.
Ducati has fine-tuned the cam profiles for smoother response, while some internal components are inspired by the Panigale V4 R and Superleggera V4. The counter-rotating crankshaft and the “Twin Pulse” firing order give the motorcycle its signature MotoGP-like sound and character.
For track enthusiasts, an optional Akrapovič exhaust system is available, boosting power output to an incredible 224bhp.
Upgraded Chassis for Better Handling
The chassis design is now even closer to the Panigale V4. It features a lighter front frame and a new symmetrical double-sided swingarm, offering better stability and improved corner exits.
The V4 S variant comes equipped with Ohlins Smart EC 3.0 suspension, which includes an electronically adjustable NIX-30 fork and TTX36 shock absorber. This system adapts to different road conditions in real time.
The standard V4 gets a Showa Big Piston Fork and Sachs rear shock, both fully adjustable. Despite all the technology, the bike remains incredibly light — 191kg for the V4 and 189kg for the V4 S, making them among the lightest in their class.
Superior Braking and Tyres for Ultimate Control
Ducati has introduced Brembo Hypure brake calipers, replacing the previous Stylema units. These are lighter and designed to handle heat more efficiently during high-speed braking.
Both versions also get Race eCBS (Electronic Combined Braking System), which adjusts front and rear braking for more stability during aggressive braking. Riders can choose between five braking levels, balancing between track precision and street comfort.
The Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV Corsa tyres ensure maximum grip, especially during cornering and hard acceleration.
Advanced Electronics and Rider Aids
This version of the Streetfighter takes electronics to the next level. Ducati has introduced Ducati Vehicle Observer (DVO), an advanced system that simulates multiple sensor readings to fine-tune traction, wheelie, slide, and launch control.
Other features include:
- Ducati Quick Shifter (DQS) 2.0 for smoother gear shifts.
- Engine Brake Control (EBC) for better corner entry stability.
- Four riding modes – Race, Sport, Road, and Wet.
- On-the-fly adjustments via the new left-hand switchgear.
A 6.9-inch full-TFT display now provides a clearer, wider, and more responsive interface with an 8:3 aspect ratio.
Design: Aggressive Yet Comfortable
The Streetfighter’s look is sharper than ever. It now features biplane wings, redesigned to blend better with the body while generating more downforce for stability at high speeds.
The new LED headlamp gives the motorcycle a bold front look, while the tail-light design forms a stylish “double C” shape.
Comfort has also been improved. The handlebar is 10mm closer, footpegs are repositioned, and inner ducts help redirect engine heat away from the rider’s legs — small changes that make a big difference during long rides.
Ducati’s Focus on the Indian Market
The launch of these high-performance bikes shows Ducati’s growing commitment to India’s premium motorcycle market. With increasing demand for super naked and performance-oriented bikes, Ducati aims to attract both street riders and track enthusiasts who seek power and precision in one machine.
Conclusion
The 2025 Ducati Streetfighter V4 and V4 S are not just motorcycles; they are engineering marvels that blend Italian design with raw power. With advanced electronics, lightweight construction, and a thrilling V4 engine, Ducati has once again raised the bar for performance bikes in India.
For riders who crave speed, technology, and style in one package, the new Streetfighter range is an unbeatable option in its class.
