Ducati India has announced the re-opening of bookings for the new Panigale V4 and the V4S.

To cater to the high demand from biking enthusiasts across the country. Ducati India is now bringing in additional units of its flagship motorcycle, which can now be booked across Ducati dealerships in Delhi-NCR, Mumbai, Pune, Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Kochi and Kolkata.

“The overwhelming response which the Panigale V4 has received, even before the start of deliveries, is a testament of its domination in the superbike segment and we are delighted to announce the reopening of bookings to cater to the pending customers’ requests that we’ve collected so far,” said Sergi Canovas, the managing director of Ducati India.

The new Ducati Panigale V4 is available in two variants - the Panigale and the Panigale V4 S.
