Scrambler Urban Enduro
With this, Ducati has joined companies like Honda, Yamaha who have withdrawn their products like CBR 250R, R3 from Indian market for not meeting emission norms. Surprisingly, the emission norms came into effect from 1 April this year but Ducati decided to withdraw products around two and half months after ban on BS-III vehicles was effected. Ducati has not announced when the updated versions will be available.
Ducati retails these motorcycles in Euro 4 compliant versions in
Europe. Interestingly, the Ducati Diavel Diesel, based on the standard
Diavel, continues to be on sale in India.Ducati has just launched Monster 797 and Multistrada 950 in India. The Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled, Ducati Scrambler Café Racer, and Ducati SuperSport will be launched later this year.The
Ducati Monster 797 is the smallest model in the Monster line and uses
the same air-cooled powerplant seen in the Scrambler. The Multistrada
950 is a toned-down version of the Multistrada 1200 Enduro with the
engine tracing its origins to the Hypermotard 939.
