Our take on this /// Verdict
The Ducati 848 EVO is a hardcore, track-oriented motorcycle that demands commitment and attention from its rider. With its powerful 849cc Desmo L-twin engine producing 140PS and 98Nm of torque, this bike is a thrill on the open road or the track. However, it is not ideal for daily commuting due to its hard clutch, lack of airflow leading to significant heat issues, and a riding posture that can be tiring on the wrists and forearms. The bikes handling is precise, thanks to its fully adjustable Showa forks and Öhlins rear shock in the Corse Special Edition, making it a joy for experienced riders who can appreciate its performance capabilities. If youre looking for a bike that commands respect and offers exhilarating performance, the 848 EVO is a great choice, but its not for the faint of heart.
Price
In India, the Ducati 848 EVO, particularly the Corse Special Edition, comes with a premium price tag. The ex-showroom price can range from around 15 lakhs to 18 lakhs, depending on the region and any customizations. Once you factor in the on-road costs, including registration, insurance, and other taxes, the price can easily exceed 20 lakhs. This is a significant investment, but for those who value high-performance motorcycles with advanced features like Monobloc brakes and Öhlins suspension, it might be worth the cost. However, its crucial to consider the overall ownership experience, including maintenance and running costs, before making a decision.
Mileage
Tuesday, 19 November 2024 08:42 PM
The mileage of the Ducati 848 EVO in India is not its strong suit. With a fuel tank capacity of around 15.5 liters, this bike typically offers mileage in the range of 10-15 kml, depending on the riding conditions. Given its high-performance nature, it is designed more for speed and agility rather than fuel efficiency. If youre concerned about mileage and running costs, this might not be the best option, but for those who prioritize performance over economy, the 848 EVO delivers an unparalleled riding experience.
