Diavel 1260 Lamborghini
JESSICA HALL
To be made in a limited and numbered edition of 630 units, the Ducati Diavel 1260 Lamborghini is born from the collaboration between two prestigious brands that have their roots in the Motor Valley, the Emilia-Romagna land, which is home to the sportiest and most desired car and motorcycle companies in the world.
Inspiration for the Diavel 1260 Lamborghini came from the Siàn FKP 37, the most prestigious and powerful car ever made by Lamborghini. It was conceived by transferring the basic design components of the Siàn FKP 37 to the motorcycle world and redesigning the parts that most characterize the Diavel. The forged wheels, the air intakes, and radiator covers are made of carbon fiber and designed by superimposing floating elements onto the main structure. Designers used the same paints as those on the Siàn FKP 37, with the bodywork characterized by the “Gea Green” color, while the frame, the seat tail, and the forged rims are embellished with the use of “Electrum Gold” color. There is also a touch of “Ducati Red” on the Brembo M50 radialmount brake calipers.
Some of the key features of the Diavel 1260 Lamborghini are the typical “power cruiser” riding position and ergonomics of the Diavel model, along with the exposed tubular steel trellis frame, the 240 mm wide rear tire, the single-sided aluminum swingarm, and the fully adjustable Öhlins suspensions at the front and rear. Sophisticated electronics ensure both high-level performance and maximum safety. The electronic package includes Cornering ABS EVO, Ducati Traction Control EVO (DTC), Ducati Wheelie Control EVO (DWC), Ducati Power Launch EVO (DPL), and Cruise Control.
The attention to detail applied to this model can be seen right from the start-up phase, when the two brands’ logos appear on the dashboard with the TFT screen, accompanied by the silhouette of the Diavel Lamborghini. Unconventional, unique, absolutely unmistakable: the Diavel 1260 is the model of the Ducati range that amazes enthusiasts everywhere for its personality, its naked sports road performance, its thoroughbred sports engine, and its design.
Pricing for the new Ducati Diavel 1260 Lamborghini starts at $31,995.
