Ducati 848 EVO unveiled

Two years on from its launch, the Ducati 848 has received a few tweaks. These have been focussed mainly on the engine and brakes.



Changes to the 849 cc Testastretta V-twin include revised throttle bodies, cylinder heads and camshafts. As a result, power is up from 134 bhp (100 kW / 136 PS) to 138 bhp (103 kW / 140 PS), while maximum torque is now 98 Nm.





Braking ability has been improved as well, thanks to the use of race-derived Brembo Monobloc calipers for the front twin 320 mm discs. For the first time, the 848 also gets a steering damper.



To mark the changes, Ducati has given the 848 an ‘EVO’ suffix. However, despite the various enhancements, the good news is that UK prices are unchanged compared to the outgoing models.





The 848 EVO, which comes in traditional Ducati red with a matching frame and black wheels, remains at £10,695 (plus on the road charges). A slightly cheaper alternative is the very cool looking 848 EVO Dark Stealth which, as the name implies, has a matt-effect black finish with a black frame. It costs £9,995.



Orders for the 848 EVO can be placed now, ahead of the first customer deliveries which are expected to take place during September.
