Andrea Ferraresi, director of Centro Stile Ducati, says: “The XDiavel Nera project was born from the coming together of two outstanding Italian brands. Ducati and Poltrona Frau are two brands with a unique history. They share a passion for beauty and good workmanship. They are strongly Italian, making craftsmanship a distinctive element that they always enrich with sophisticated technological solutions and the use of high quality materials. The XDiavel Nera perfectly summarizes the values that unite Ducati and Poltrona Frau. It is a unique motorcycle with an unmistakable identity, a great expression of ‘Made in Italy’ excellence.”
Giovanni Maiolo, Director of the Interiors in Motion Business Unit at Poltrona Frau: “We are very pleased with the work we have done together with Ducati on the XDiavel Nera. We are proud to be part of this 100% Italian project, which has fascinated us from the start and has given us the opportunity to once again demonstrate our know-how and design skills in co-design projects, combining innovation and craftsmanship.”
