Ducati Philippines has officially launched their new 2016 Ducati xDiavel at Brozeit in Shangri-La Plaza in a black tie event for all media guests and Ducati riders.

The Ducati xDiavel is a special low speed muscle bike delivering the peak torque at 5000rpm, with a lean angle of 40 degrees. The xDiavel has low slung comfy seats with wide handlebars like a cruiser but designed with the elegance of Italian engineering.

President
Ducati Philippines
“Ducati has been around since we started way back 2001. It was our first year and Ducati was pretty new then. But our advantage was, Ducati was already world superbike champion by then. And that was during the hay day of Ducati's superbike so it's very easy for us to come in because people really wanted Ducati, and we made it available. Not only we made it available, we aided in how to ride, how to tune the bikes for perfection so it made Ducati experience so, so much better.
We have a new motorcycle, XDiavel. They call it the gentleman and the bastard because looking at it, it looks so gentlemanly and when you ride it, with a 160 ps, it can be a hell of a boxer, giving you the natural Ducati excitement but with a flick of a switch, you can make it a tame, gentleman bike. Our sales have been increasing since 2001, so now, we have over a thousands of Ducati's already and I'm sure whenever they say Ducati, it really rings a bell like, "Wow, Ducati! Those are expensive Italian bikes. Those are high-performance bikes." Everybody wants one. I mean, let's face it, people want to own a Ducati.”
