2026 Ducati Monster: Everything you need to know
The next-gen Ducati Monster will be revealed on October 26 at the Ducati World Premier 2026. The upcoming model has been teased online by the Italian manufacturer.
As seen in the teaser, the bike will get a new sculpted fuel tank with more aggressive and aerodynamic design. Similarly, the large ‘M’ featured in the teaser has a red backlit, hinting at a new LED taillight design.
Going by the online reports, the new Monster will get the new 890cc V2 engine, which has already marked its presence on the Multistrada V2, Panigale V2, and Streetfighter V2. This new engine offers around 120 bhp of peak power.
However, the significant upgrade is expected to happen in terms of its weight. The new Monster is expected to get 10-15 kg lighter due to the new engine, redesigned parts, and a revised frame.
Ducati will also equip it with all sorts of electronic aids, including the six-axis IMU, cruise control, wheelie control, launch control, cornering ABS, and more. The new model will be offered with exciting paint shades as well.
Our assumption says that Ducati will launch the new-gen Monster in India by mid-2026.
