Ducati 848 EVO Corse Edition- Technical Changes.







FORGIVE us for not picking up on this sooner. At the Milan show, we spent far too long looking over the new 1199 Panigale and overlooked this Corse edition 848.

Thinking the Corse edition was just an 848 with a lick of paint, we didn't give it a second thought. However, it turns out the new Ducati 848 EVO Corse edition (for that is its full name) feautres traction control among a few other goodies.

The 848 EVO Corse gets the full 8-level Ducati Traction Control (DTC) as featured on bikes like Ducati's 1198SP, Diavel and Streetfighter 848. It also goes one-step further with the addition of a quickshifter, the Ducati Quick Shift (DQS) system, as featured on the new 1199 Panigale.

Gone is the standard bike's rear shock, replaced with a fully adjustable Öhlins unit. We also think it looks like it features the same Brembo monobloc calipers as used on the 1199 too.

It's as close to an 848R as you're going to get. No word on price yet, we'll keep you posted.

Some 3~ years ago when 848 was launched, it was presented as a cheaper alternative to the 1098S back then. The Italian company mentioned that it is just a small factory and doesn't have the resources to make racing bikes in each and every category, and back then 848 was not promoted as a racing bike.
But with 848 EVO, and its above-mentioned subsequent update, it seems like 848 is getting more and more closer to being race ready. Let's wish it all the best.
