2026 Ducati Diavel V4 RS

The 2026 Ducati Diavel V4 RS is the latest “RS” model, built for performance and style, featuring a 1,103 cc Desmosedici Stradale V4 engine delivering about 179 bhp at 11,750 rpm and 88 lb‑ft of torque at 9,500 rpm, paired with a dry clutch and the Quick Shift 2.0. It accelerates from 0‑62 mph in around 2.5 seconds thanks to a new launch‑control system and revised gearing. The chassis is lightened by using forged wheels, a single‑sided swingarm, aluminium monocoque frame, carbon and titanium parts, plus a lithium‑ion battery, resulting in a weight saving of around 3 kg over the standard Diavel. It rides on fully adjustable Öhlins suspension, Brembo Stylema brakes, and wide Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tyres. Electronics include a Bosch IMU, multiple power and riding modes (including a new Race mode), plus rider aids like traction control, wheelie control, cornering ABS, and launch assist. Visually it gets RS‑specific styling, carbon fibre details, RS livery, one‑seat setup by default (with pillion kit available), and a numbered series plate. European availability begins December 2025, with other markets following in early 2026
