❗️Ducati has officially revealed the new Panigale V4 R as its 2026 homologation superbike for WorldSBK.

It uses a 998 cc Desmosedici Stradale R V4 engine, producing 208 hp stock and up to 235–239 hp with race exhaust and special oil.

Torque peaks at 84.5 lb-ft at 12,000 rpm, with improved midrange over the previous generation.

The bike weighs about 411 lbs wet (without fuel), making it extremely light for its class.

Ducati claims a top speed of 197 mph in street trim and 205 mph with the racing exhaust.

The chassis is based on the 2025 V4 platform, featuring a revised hollow swingarm and lighter front frame.

Aerodynamics include MotoGP-inspired corner sidepods and larger winglets, giving 25% more downforce than before.

It debuts the Ducati Racing Gearbox (DRG), which places neutral below first gear for race-style shifting.

Electronics include cornering ABS, traction control, slide control, engine brake control, predictive “Vehicle Observer” software, and full rider modes.

Braking is handled by Brembo Hypure calipers with top-tier racing performance.

Each bike will be a numbered production model, marking its exclusivity.

U.S. price is set around $49,995, with deliveries in Europe November 2025 and U.S. March 2026.

Ducati markets it as the most race-derived street-legal Ducati ever built, blurring the line between MotoGP tech and road use.
