Ducati and AMG’s partnership is churning out new exciting products for us petrol heads. One such machine that is the result of the marriage between the Italian bike maker and Mercedes’ skunk works is the new Ducati Diavel AMG Special Edition. No, this bike doesn’t come free with a Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Coupe. The bike in fact costs 26,000 euros and features AMG signature bits to set it apart from the standard Diavel.

The rims get five shiny spokes much like those on your AMG Mercedes. Even the seat is finished in Alcantara to match the dashboard of your car. The radiator grilles on the bike are finished in aluminium while the exhaust too have been given signature AMG look. Now, Ducati recently launched the Diavel in India. The Ducati Diavel is priced at Rs 17 lakh ex-showroom. Ducati has four showrooms across India and offers their complete range of high performance bikes to its Indian customers. Just like the AMG Mercedes, this Ducati is hand built. We like the Black and Silver colour scheme which does remind us of the glitzy and powerful AMG beasts.
