will also be able to choose the same colour as their car for the bodywork parts or one of those from an exclusive palette selected by Mulliner ’ s designer for this special and highly exclusive series .
THE FINAL DETAILS
The Diavel for Bentley , like all collectible Ducatis , is delivered with a certificate of authenticity , a passenger seat and a motorcycle cover . The name of the model and the production number of the unit are shown on a plate inserted in the carbon fibre cover of the vertical head , on the right side of the motorcycle . Both the dashboard , equipped as standard with turnby-turn navigator , and the LED matrix of the rear light cluster offer a special animation at the key-on which makes the Diavel for Bentley even more unmistakable . Finally , each Diavel for Bentley will be delivered in an exclusive personalised wooden case .
The collaboration between the two manufacturers has also led to the creation of a Capsule Collection , reserved for Diavel for Bentley owners , which allows customers to complete their look with a jet helmet and a technical jacket ( available in both men ’ s and women ’ s versions ) in a limited edition , characterized by a colour scheme that reflects that of the motorbike .
The Diavel for Bentley adopts the 1,158 cc V4 Granturismo engine , a central element of its design and at the same time a highly refined technical choice . Powerful ( 168 hp ), rich in torque but also extremely light and compact , it is at the same time fluid and usable right from the lowest revs . The Twin Pulse combustion order , together with
the dedicated exhaust system , unmistakably characterize the timbre of the exhaust .
This joint project stems from Ducati and Bentley both being part of the Volkswagen Group ’ s “ Progressive Brand Group ”, which also includes Audi and Lamborghini .
