Ducati Launches 2025 Streetfighter V4 & V4 S in India

Ducati has introduced the 2025 versions of its naked superbike, the Streetfighter V4 and Streetfighter V4 S, in India. The standard V4 is priced at Rs 28,68,600, while the V4 S costs Rs 32,38,400 (ex-showroom). Deliveries for both models have already begun.
 

The new Streetfighter range comes with more power, sharper design, and richer electronics, which makes it one of the most advanced naked sportbikes in its class.
 

Engine & Performance

Both variants feature the 1,103cc Desmosedici Stradale V4 engine, now compliant with Euro 5+ and E20 fuel standards. This powerful motor produces 212 bhp at 13,500 rpm and 120 Nm of torque at 11,250 rpm. The engine retains Ducati’s signature counter-rotating crankshaft and “Twin Pulse” firing order, which gives it a thrilling MotoGP-inspired sound and performance.
 

In addition, for riders who crave even more excitement, Ducati offers an optional Akrapovič exhaust system that increases the output to a claimed 224 bhp. This means the Streetfighter V4 is not just about looks but also about delivering serious racetrack-level performance on the road.
 

Chassis, Suspension & Brakes

The 2025 Streetfighter range takes plenty of inspiration from the Panigale V4 superbike. It uses a lighter front frame with refined stiffness for improved handling and a new hollow symmetrical double-sided swingarm that enhances stability while reducing weight.
 

The standard Streetfighter V4 gets a fully adjustable 43 mm Showa Big Piston Fork at the front, a Sachs rear monoshock, and a Sachs steering damper. Meanwhile, the V4 S features the top-of-the-line Öhlins Smart EC 3.0 electronic suspension setup, which includes an NIX-30 fork, TTX36 shock, and an electronic steering damper. It also gets forged aluminium wheels and a lightweight lithium battery that reduces the overall mass and improves agility.
 

Both bikes feature Brembo Hypure front calipers, which are lighter and offer better heat management compared to older units. The Race eCBS system with the cornering function helps maintain stability under heavy braking. Moreover, the claimed kerb weight stands at 191 kg for the standard V4 and 189 kg for the V4 S.
 

Electronics & Rider Aids

Ducati has taken a big leap forward in electronics for the 2025 Streetfighter range. Both variants come equipped with a six-axis IMU that manages traction control, wheelie control, cornering ABS, and slide control. There’s a new Vehicle Observer (DVO) system that uses virtual sensors to fine-tune these assists for even smoother and safer riding.
 

There are four Riding Modes, including Race, Sport, Road, and Wet, which allows riders to adapt the bike’s character to different conditions. The new Ducati Quick Shifter (DQS 2.0) provides smoother gear shifts, while Engine Brake Control (EBC) can now be adjusted more precisely.
 

There’s a larger 6.9-inch full-TFT display with an 8:3 aspect ratio, which makes it easier to read key information like riding modes, suspension settings, and intervention levels. It also features a simplified layout for quick access while riding.
 

Design, Ergonomics & Other Highlights

The 2025 Streetfighter V4 lineup continues with Ducati’s trademark aggressive styling but with smarter aerodynamics and improved comfort. The front gets a redesigned full-LED headlamp with a sharp look, while the biplane wings are now integrated more neatly, generating more downforce at higher speeds.
 

The 16-litre fuel tank is sculpted to give riders better grip with their knees, and the seat has been reshaped for extra support under braking and when cornering. The handlebar is pulled 10 mm closer to the rider for a more natural riding position. Additionally, the footpegs have been repositioned slightly forward and inward for better comfort, while new air ducts help divert hot air away from the rider’s legs.
