For the 2024 model year, the Ducati Panigale V2 brings in an updated paint scheme. This is known as 'Black on Black.' This new design boasts completely black bodywork and wheels. The looks are further accentuated by red highlights on the wheel rims and the word 'Panigale' at the front of the fairing. The 'Ducati' text on the fuel tank matches perfectly with the red accents seen on the wheels and fairing. Additionally, the 'V2' label is also prominent. Displayed in large black lettering beneath the 'Panigale' text on the fairing, makes it look quite striking, a head turner for sure.
