2022 Ducati World Premiere announced with the wild DesertX teaser

2022 Ducati World Premiere announced with the wild DesertX teaser

KUALA LUMPUR: The Ducati World Premiere 2022 is set to commence from September 30 with all web episodes to be released on the brand’s official website, YouTube channel, and social media accounts. The show will introduce an all-new Ducati model every two weeks, ending with the much-awaited Ducati Desert X showcase on December 9, 2021. 

The DesertX was one of the star concept bikes of the Italian marque during the EICMA 2019 show that grabbed many eyeballs due to its interesting specs. It is inspired by the iconic models that raced in the golden age of desert Rally, the 80s and 90s, and the unforgettable Paris Dakar epics.

While announcing the World Premiere event, Ducati also released the first teaser image of the production-spec DesertX, and thankfully it does not look much different from the concept. It gets a revamped chassis equipped with a 937-cc Testastretta V-twin engine at the core and a 21-inch wheel on the front.

Designed for long trips with challenging off-road stretches, the bike has two tanks that ensure the trip continues even in case of a crash. The pillion seat of the bike is removable to make space for a baggage carrier. On the front, its windshield incorporates a twin daytime running light reminiscent of the Scrambler model.

About the five other bikes, no official information is available at the moment. However, Ducati has given some clues as to what these models could be. Here, we have their debut dates and the hints.

  • Model 1 - September 30, 2021 - Your everyday wonder
  • Model 2 - October 14, 2021 - Mark your roots
  • Model 3 - October 28, 2021 - Rule all mountains

  • Model 5 - November 25, 2021 - The evolution of Speed
  • Model 6 - December 9, 2021 - Dream Wilder - DesertX

Out of these, we can decode model 4 as the new Ducati Streetfighter V2, based on the Panigale V2. Its first hint was received back in 2019, and recently, it has been spotted while testing along with the third model that is Ducati Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak edition.
