Truthfully, we by no means fairly ‘bought’ earlier Ducati/Lamborghini tie-ins – the luxurious limited-edition Diavel 1260 and Streetfighter V4 finished up in Lamborghini paint schemes. Though, since we’d wrestle to afford any Lambo exterior the Scorching Wheels vary, we’re in all probability not the target market anyway (once more). However this makes far more sense from the 2 Volkswagen-owned manufacturers: an Italian superbike – the Panigale V4S – honouring an Italian supercar – the Lamborghini Revuelto. That’s the newest automotive from the agency, with a hybrid powertrain making 1015bhp from a V-12 petrol engine and three electrical motors. It has a carbon-fibre chassis, tops 220mph, hits 0-60 in 2.5 seconds and prices round £450k.
A pleasant little runaround for popping to Tesco, little doubt. And the bike is fairly neat, too. Ducati’s taken the bottom 2025 Panigale V4S – an unbelievable little bit of equipment – and added some trick paint from the Lamborghini spray can cabinet, a dry clutch conversion, plus a titanium Akrapovic pipe. You additionally get cast aluminium wheels and carbon fibre bodywork, all saving a few kilos over inventory, which means 185kg moist with no gasoline and 218.5bhp peak energy. Simply 630 of the ‘commonplace’ Lambor-gales can be produced, with an additional 63 ‘particular’ variants reserved for real Lamborghini house owners, which will be painted to match their vehicles, or no matter different Lambo-hue they fancy.
And, after all, patrons will get the same old certificates, bike covers, picket crates, fancy ignition key and a one-off animation on the LCD sprint start-up display. Thus far, so first rate, however the value is fairly stiff, contemplating the spec. £75k is the RRP, for which we’d in all probability favored to have seen some carbon wheels, maybe the Brembo Brake Professional+ big-discs and GP4 caliper package deal and the race Akrapovic system within the field, too. No matter our ‘little individuals’ moans although, the Bologna agency will little doubt promote the complete allocation to the collectors and Restricted Lambo… by Ducati completists on the market, and good luck to all of them.
As ever, when you purchase one and wish a hand operating it in spherical Cadwell Park to win Inters, we’ll be more than pleased to assist ye out…
