Ducati Scrambler Icon

The Scrambler Icon is sold in 3 variants, from ₹10,86,986 for the Dark to ₹17,10,000 for the 10 Anniversario Rizoma Edition, ex-showroom Delhi.

That makes it priced 97th lowest among the 137 sports bikes we have reviewed. Its closest price rivals are the Street Triple R (₹29,314 more) and the CB750 Hornet (₹37,986 less).

On the road in Delhi the base Scrambler Icon comes to ₹12.32 Lakh: ₹10,87,000 ex-showroom, ₹94,960 in Delhi road tax and registration (8.7%), ₹38,763 for first-year insurance and ₹10,870 in tcs 1%. Dealers add handling and accessory packs on top; both are negotiable.

The Scrambler Icon is rated at 19 kmpl (claimed mileage). Treat that as a ceiling: real-world figures are usually 15–25% lower.

Among the 114 sports bikes we have reviewed it ranks 90th for mileage, 14 kmpl below the group average of 33 kmpl.

The 803cc air-cooled engine makes 71.87 bhp and 65.2 Nm through a 6 Speed. With a kerb weight of 185 kg that is 388 bhp per tonne, 43th best power-to-weight of the 135 bikes in this class we have reviewed.

The torque and power figures are well balanced, so it neither needs to be revved hard nor feels lazy when you do.

Chassis hardware includes USD front forks, dual-channel ABS, a slipper clutch and traction control, with a disc, 330 mm, 4 piston caliper up front and disc, 245 mm, 1 piston caliper at the rear.

At 795 mm the seat is average for the class; most riders from 5'5" up will be comfortable at stops.

On safety kit the Scrambler Icon has dual-channel abs, front disc brake, rear disc brake, tubeless tyres, traction control, side-stand engine cut-off and hazard lamps. Dual-channel ABS is the one item on this list worth paying for if it is variant-dependent.

Against Scrambler Full Throttle, Scrambler Nightshift or Scrambler 1200, it gets alloy wheels that most rivals skip.

It is offered in 4 colours: Matte Black, Ducati Red, Yellow and Stone White and Metal Roase. Colour availability varies by variant and dealer stock.

Standard warranty is 2 years, unlimited km.

Ducati runs a limited sales and service network in India, at roughly 15 touchpoints. Check the nearest workshop before buying if you live outside a metro; a 40 km ride for every service adds up.

The Scrambler Icon launched in 2025, so long-term reliability and resale data are still thin. That is not a mark against it, just a reason to prefer the standard warranty and keep service records.
