Their ideas and sketches have allowed the Ducati prototype department to come up with the “draXter”, starting from a standard production XDiavel. The beating heart of the “draXter” is that of an extreme dragster with premium racing componentry. This is particularly evident, for example, in the suspension and brakes, taken directly from the 1299 Panigale Superbike. This styling exercise has accentuated the lines and proportions of the XDiavel making them more extreme than ever and turning the “draXter” into a unique, breath-taking supersport.

In addition to the unprecedented concept bike and XDiavel and XDiavel S factory bikes, visitors were also able to take a look at the brand’s new Cruiser range of accessories and apparel.

Ducati is owned by German automotive manufacturer Audi through its Italian subsidiary Lamborghini, which is all owned by the Volkswagen Group.
