Ducati have announced the 2021 XDiavel Dark, as well as the XDiavel Black Star, with Ducati’s hyper-cruiser, receiving a number of updates for 2021, revolving around the new version being Euro5 compliant with a performance boost as a result, for markets who get the Euro5 version.
As you may have guessed the XDiavel Dark is the blacked out version, featuring a matt black paint scheme, with only a handful of components bucking that trend, including the triples, bar risers, muffler and brakes.

The XDiavel Black Star adds grey to the metallic black, as well as a few dashes of red, plus a number of up-spec features. I’ll go through the specifications of the 2021 XDiavel models, and point out where the Black Star differs, to keep things simple.
Pricing for Australia has been announced with the 2021 Ducati XDiavel Dark $29,390 on the road, the Black Star $37,590 and the XDiavel S $36,100. In comparison in America the MSRP prices quoted are $19,995 for the Dark, and $24,695 for the S version.
