Ducati India has launched a new variant of the Scrambler family in India – the Ducati Scrambler Mach 2.0 – priced at Rs 852,000 (ex-showroom, all India). The Scrambler Mach 2.0 features a paint scheme created by renowned Californian designer Roland Sands with colours that evoke the typical West Coast style of the 1970s.

Sleek, with low-slung tapered aluminium handlebars, the Mach 2.0 also features a low variable cross-section aluminium handlebar, a dedicated Flat Track Pro seat, black exhaust and cylinder head covers, plus Café Racer-style brushed cooling fins.

The Inspiration for the latest Scrambler’s name comes from a bike that made Ducati – and motorcycling – history in the 1960s. The Mach 1 250 was launched in 1965 mounted on the same engine as the Scrambler 250 of the time. The name stems from its association with speed and movement 'Mach' is the unit of measure for supersonic speeds.

The Euro 4 803cc, twin-cylinder Desmodue engine on the Ducati Scrambler develops 73hp at 8250rpm and 67 Nm of torque at 5750rpm.

According to Sergi Canovas Garriga, managing director of Ducati India, “Ducati Scramblers are the perfect starting point for motorcyclists. It is a contemporary bike that gives the rider pure riding pleasure with the practicality of a modern bike. The Scrambler Mach 2.0 is a very special motorcycle that is a result of our collaboration with Roland and will provide a unique flavour to Scrambler buyers.”

The Ducati Scrambler Mach 2.0 is available for delivery across all seven Ducati dealerships in Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Bangalore, Pune, Ahmedabad, Kolkata and Kochi.
