Ducati ended its third quarter with extremely positive results, with 49,693 motorcycles delivered to customers worldwide. Indeed, at the end of the first nine months of 2021, the company had exceeded the sales volumes obtained in the whole of 2020 (48,042).

The third quarter of 2021 is confirmed as the best in Ducati’s history, with a growth of 3% over Q3 2020 and up 25% on Q3 2019. At the end of September, the biggest market for motorcycles delivered remained Italy (7,954), followed by the USA (7,475) and Germany (5,627).

Francesco Milicia, Ducati’s vice president (global sales and after-sales), said: “Ducati closed the first nine months of the year with sales volumes that are already higher than the full year 2020, both for the bikes and for after-sales products like clothing, accessories and spare parts. The growth we are experiencing is widespread on all the main markets in which Ducati is present and extends across all product families.

“We are very satisfied with the results obtained: the ‘community of Ducatisti’ is growing all over the world and the most influential magazines in the motorcycling sector are awarding important prizes to Ducati bikes. This is a source of pride and satisfaction for us here in Borgo Panigale and in all Ducati subsidiaries worldwide. The brand is now more solid and appreciated than ever and we are already focusing on next year.”

Ducati has already started to present the new products of the 2022 range. The ‘Ducati World Premiere’ was dedicated to the new Multistrada V2, along with the new Ducati Scrambler 1100 Tribute PRO, which was built to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the introduction of the air-cooled twin-cylinder engine on a Ducati.
