2025 Ducati Streetfighter V4 Launched in India at ₹28.69 Lakh

The new Ducati Streetfighter V4 arrives in India as perhaps the ultimate naked superbike, blending raw performance with refined engineering. With the base model priced at ₹28.69 Lakh ex-showroom, it stakes its claim as one of the most elite machines in the Indian two-wheeler landscape. Designed for riders who demand track-level capability on the road, the Streetfighter V4 delivers a compelling proposition powered by the 1,103 cc ‘Desmosedici Stradale’ V4 engine and a lean, agile chassis tailored for high-performance riding.

Engine & Performance

At its heart lies the 1,103 cc 90° V4 engine, now Euro 5+ compliant and tuned to deliver 214 hp at 13,500 rpm and 120 Nm of peak torque at 11,250 rpm. This marks a noticeable upgrade over previous variants. The counter-rotating crankshaft and desmodromic valvetrain underscore its racing lineage. As a result, the Streetfighter V4 offers brutal mid- and top-end thrust — yet retains usable control thanks to selectable ride modes and a bi-directional quick shifter. Together, these features cater to the demand of the naked-sportbike rider seeking both acceleration thrills and electronic precision.

Chassis & Handling

Derived from its fairing-equipped sibling, the chassis of the Streetfighter V4 features a new hollow symmetrical swingarm and revised front-frame geometry aimed at reducing lateral stiffness and improving feedback. Weight comes in at around 189–191 kg (wet) depending on variant, giving it a potent power-to-weight ratio. The 845 mm seat height and more upright handlebar geometry (10 mm closer to the rider) reflect a shift toward better control and longer-ride comfort. Standard suspension features include a 43 mm Showa BPF fork and a Sachs monoshock; the V4 S variant upgrades to Öhlins SmartEC electronically controlled suspension. This combination ensures razor-sharp responses on fast corners while being manageable for road use.

Technology & Features

The Streetfighter V4 comes equipped with a full suite of rider aids: cornering ABS, slide control, wheelie control, engine-brake control, launch control and a 6-axis IMU underpinning the electronics system. A 6.9-inch TFT display provides connectivity, bike-status info and ride-mode selection. Design cues such as aggressive LED headlights, signature biplane winglets producing meaningful downforce at speed, and race-inspired styling distinguish the Streetfighter’s visual presence.

Pricing & Competitiveness

In India, the 2025 model’s starting ex-showroom price of ₹28.69 Lakh positions it firmly in the premium naked-superbike segment. Compared to fairing-equipped superbikes, the Streetfighter offers a more upright, road-friendly experience without sacrificing track capability. Its combination of displacement, power, electronics and exclusivity make it a compelling choice for a specific kind of enthusiast.

Conclusion

The 2025 Ducati Streetfighter V4 is engineered for the rider who refuses to compromise — demanding blistering V4 power, high-end electronics, aggressive styling and razor-sharp handling in a naked-form package. This machine is not for the casual commuter but for the serious enthusiast who understands performance economics and values cutting-edge technology. If you seek a no-compromise naked superbike that transforms every ride into a statement, the Streetfighter V4 delivers exactly that.
