Ducati has kicked off the next chapter of its middleweight naked lineup in India with the launch of the 2025 Streetfighter V2. The motorcycle arrives in two versions — the standard model and the more premium Streetfighter V2 S — priced at:
| Variant | Price (Ex-showroom India) |
|---|---|
| Ducati Streetfighter V2 | ₹17.50 lakh |
| Ducati Streetfighter V2 S | ₹19.49 lakh |
This launch follows Ducati’s recent updates to the Multistrada V2 and Panigale V2, completing the refreshed V2 family for 2025.
What’s New? A Lighter, Sharper, More Tech-Loaded Fighter
The biggest talking point is the brand-new 890cc V-twin engine, replacing the older 955cc unit. While the output may seem toned down on paper, the new motor is significantly lighter — weighing just 54.4kg, making it Ducati’s lightest twin-cylinder engine ever.
Engine & Performance Highlights
| Specification | Detail |
|---|---|
| Engine Displacement | 890cc V-twin |
| Power | 120hp @ 10,750rpm |
| Torque | 93.3Nm @ 8,250rpm |
| Engine Weight | 54.4kg (lightest Ducati twin-cylinder yet) |
Even with slightly reduced power compared to the outgoing model, the power-to-weight ratio remains impressive thanks to considerable weight savings.
Weight & Hardware: Lighter Than Ever
Ducati has shed weight across the motorcycle—making the new V2 lighter and more agile.
| Model | Dry Weight |
|---|---|
| Streetfighter V2 | 178kg |
| Streetfighter V2 S | 175kg (lightest Streetfighter yet) |
Both models ride on Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tyres, while the V2 S variant steps things up with:
Fully adjustable Öhlins suspension
Updated electronics suite
Better handling dynamics for spirited riders
