Sunnyvale, CA (March 26, 2025) – Ducati North America collaborated with Eataly and world-renowned chef Massimo Bottura to arrive at a high-profile “Gather for Good” charity event in Los Angeles on the brand-new Ducati XDiavel V4—becoming the first person to ride the latest model in the United States.
On March 18, the celebrated chef and founder of the three-Michelin-starred Osteria Francescana made a grand entrance at the charity event dedicated to supporting the Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation, a nonprofit that provides vital resources, equipment, and training for the city’s firefighters. Other world-class chefs and restauranters also accompanied Bottura to bring together a group of tastemakers and philanthropists and support the community after the recent wildfires.
The 2026 Ducati XDiavel V4 represents the next evolution of the Sport Cruiser from Borgo Panigale, now powered by the V4 Granturismo engine, which delivers 168 horsepower and 93 ft-lb of torque for an unmatched riding experience. Featuring a counter-rotating shaft, this engine enhances performance and handling, setting a new benchmark in its category.
Designed for both power and comfort, the XDiavel V4 boasts a relaxed yet commanding riding position, enhanced seating for both rider and passenger, and accessories tailored for medium-range touring. The muscular yet elegant lines of the new model embody Ducati’s signature craftsmanship, making it a head-turner whether cruising through city streets or carving through winding roads.
Available in two exclusive colors—Burning Red and Black Lava—the XDiavel V4 exudes a distinct personality, blending cruiser charm with dragster-level performance. With a lightweight frame at just 505 lbs (without fuel), this masterpiece delivers effortless handling and thrilling acceleration.
Additionally, Ducati North America will unveil the XDiavel V4 to the public for the first time in North America on Saturday, March 29, 2025, during the third round of MotoGP at Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas.
The XDiavel V4 will be available at North American dealerships in the summer of 2025. Pricing for the 2026 XDiavel V4 starts at $28,995 in the United States.
