Ducati Ducati Panigale V2 2025 vs Ducati Diavel 1260 Comparison

The Ducati Panigale V2 isn't for the faint-hearted. Yes, it may be the entry-level Panigale, but there's nothing "entry-level" about its performance, or agility. In the right hands, the Panigale V2 can be a forgiving, entertaining and fun sportbike, that can make for a very enjoyable outing on a racetrack. The Ducati Panigale V2 isn't exactly affordable though. Priced at ₹ 17.49 lakh (Ex-showroom), the Panigale V2 is almost as expensive as litre-class superbikes.

The Diavel 1260 S with its updated engine, new chassis and electronics make for a sporty package with solid performance that will have you grinning from ear to ear every time you whack open the throttle. The relaxed ergonomics of a cruiser, enough firepower to scare you silly, and the riding dynamics of a sportbike. That level of versatility is what makes the new Ducati Diavel 1260 very, very appealing.
