Germany is the third market, where a growth of 13 percent was achieved with 4,217 engines delivered.

“This first half year was Ducati’s best ever in terms of deliveries. We achieved a record 34,976 bikes delivered, proving that our passionate customers continue to appreciate our product range, which is now wider than ever. Last year’s supply bottlenecks are now over , but global competition in the market is more intense in the post-Covid era, also due to better product availability.Our commitment to enhance the satisfaction of our Ducatisti is stronger than ever and their continued trust gives all the people in Borgo Panigale an extra motivation.”
