2025 Ducati Panigale V4 R, the most race-oriented homologati
2025 Ducati Panigale V4 R, the most race-oriented homologation superbike from Ducati:
🏍️ What’s New in 2025
🚀 Engine and Performance
• Powered by a 998 cc Desmosedici Stradale R V4 engine, it revs up to 16,500 rpm in sixth gear and delivers benchmark power in its class—207 hp @ 13,500 rpm for the road version, with a higher 240 hp output possible using race exhaust and fuel configurations .
• Race-inspired calibrations include gear-specific engine maps, expanded power modes, and refined traction and engine brake control systems (EVO 2) .
🏗️ Chassis and Handling
• The chassis evolution follows the latest V4 series layout. Front suspension now features an Öhlins NPX25/30 pressurized fork with 5mm more travel; the rear has an Öhlins TTX36 shock and revised swingarm pivot for enhanced agility and feedback .
• Aerodynamic winglets have been redesigned as a more compact two-element system—40 percent and 50 percent thinner components—delivering equal downforce with reduced drag .
🌎 Global Positioning
• The Panigale V4 R is Ducati’s ultimate track-ready street bike, built in limited numbers to meet homologation standards for MotoGP and WorldSBK.
• the V4 R version has not been explicitly separately priced, its technology closely mirrors elements found in the newly launched 2025 Panigale V4 / V4 S, which are priced between ₹29.99 lakh and ₹36.50 lakh respectively
. The V4 R, due to its exclusivity and race-grade build, commands premium pricing via CBU imports.
🏁 Why the V4 R Stands Out
Crafted as Ducati’s closest production replica to their MotoGP bikes, the Panigale V4 R features:
• Higher rev limits and racing-calibrated map options
• More aggressive aerodynamics and updated chassis geometry
• Advanced electronics tailored for track use and professional riders.
