Electric Ducati Is Coming, Says CEO

Ducati CEO Claudio Domenicali has confirmed that the Italian bikemaker is indeed working on an electric bike

  • Production to start soon, according to Claudio Domenicali. 
  • Plans to electrify its entire lineup by 2030. 
  • Ducati has confirmed that it will bring both electric scooters and motorcycles.

Back in 2017, we reported that Ducati is working on an electric motorcycle. This suspicion was confirmed when Volkswagen announced its plans of electrifying its lineup by 2030, which meant, as blasphemous as it sounds, that even Ducati would be a part of the move. Now, over a year later, Ducati CEO Claudio Domenicali has doubled down on the promise saying 바카라The future is electric, we바카라re not far from starting series production.바카라 at a recent event in Spain.

In fact, Domenicali was even spied riding an electric conversion of the Ducati Hypermotard recently. But before you get excited, the spied Hypermotard seems to be using a Zero FX powertrain. However, this does suggest that Ducati seems to be tinkering around its lineup and experimenting with electric powertrains.

Ducati isn바카라t the only big name bikemaker who will be foraying into the electric market. Companies like Yamaha and even Harley-Davidson have been heavily focusing on electric two-wheelers. The latter even has a production-ready model, the LiveWire, available on pre-order.

So what could we see from the bikemaker renowned for making some of the brawniest machines on the planet? For now it바카라s too soon to tell. Ducati has confirmed that it바카라ll be making both electric scooters and bikes. If we had to guess, we might see an electric scooter first. That said, the thought of an electric Hypermotard or even an electric Multistrada does sound interesting to our ears.
