It’s only days after the media reported on how Ducati CEO Claudio Domenicali said that the company is not dismissing a potential scooter project in the future and uttered the magic worlds “a Ducati scooter is not blasphemy”, that imagination runs wild once more. It looks like a Ducati scooter would receive a rather warm welcome if Borgo Panigale decided to make one. However, how would this two-wheeler look like is still deep in imagination territory.
However, this only brings back to memory one of the old designs imagined by Oberdan Bezzi, from the early days of Audi ownership. Of course, the maxi-scooter back then just had to bear Audi’s four-circle badge. The fears that the German car manufacturer would take over bike production were the main concern, even though we soon learned that Ducati would retain full control over bike development.
The 850cc engine seems to be the favorite
Obiboi’s initial Audi design should be therefore upgraded to a red livery and the 4-circle badge replaced with the Ducati shield. A very interesting thing can be observed: nobody is anticipating anything but a maxi-scooter from Borgo Panigale.
