Ravi Avalur, Managing Director of Ducati India said: “Our growth has confirmed Ducati’s ability to excite the Indian market. In 2017, we will have a robust network of ten dealerships across the country. The Ducatisti community is also growing with three Desmo Owners Clubs operational and two more in the pipeline. We’re looking forward to a great 2017 for Ducati.”
The Diavel Dark and Carbon continue to be sales drivers for the Italian manufacturer, accounting for 17% of total sales in 2016, while the Ducati Scrambler registered a 38% growth over the previous year.
The very popular Ducati Monster represented 19% of Ducati India’s sales and high demand for the company’s Superbike 959 Panigale scored an impressive 12% of total sales even though deliveries only started in July 2016.
