Ducati Scrambler Nightshift Goes Emerald Green for 2026

The Ducati Scrambler Nightshift has always carried itself with a certain swagger — a blend of classic café racer style and modern-day cool. For 2026, Ducati has turned up the style dial even further, unveiling a new Emerald Green livery that nods to the racing icons of the 1970s.

Designed by the Ducati Style Centre in Borgo Panigale, the new colourway contrasts glossy and matt finishes against black spoked wheels, stitched café racer-style seat, and bar-end mirrors. The result? A bike that oozes sophistication while still looking ready to tear up the backroads.

But the Nightshift isn’t just about looks. The latest generation Ducati Scrambler comes with a modernised Desmodue engine, now fitted with an eight-plate clutch that’s smoother, slimmer, and frees up more room for the rider’s foot. Ducati has also shaved 4 kg off the bike, making it more nimble and manageable day to day.

On the tech front, the Scrambler range now gets Ride by Wire throttle, two Riding Modes, and Ducati Traction Control. Add in cornering ABS and you’ve got a retro-styled machine with properly modern safety baked in.

The Scrambler family has always been about freedom, personality, and style — and the Nightshift sits at the very top of that ethos. With the new Emerald Green, it becomes even more of a head-turner.

The 2026 Ducati Scrambler Nightshift in Emerald Green will be available in New Zealand from March 2026.
