Ducati Launches Finance Program for All Models
Ducati and FreedomRoad Financial have launched Forza Ducati, a new retail financing program for the entire range of Ducati models. In addition, the motorcycle manufacturer is offering trade-in allowances and a one-year service program to eligible customers.
CUPERTINO, Calif. — Ducati and FreedomRoad Financial have launched Forza Ducati, a new retail financing program for the entire range of Ducati models. In addition, the motorcycle manufacturer is offering trade-in allowances and a one-year service program to eligible customers.
Through Forza Ducati all models and years in the entire Ducati lineup are eligible for 6.75 percent financing at terms up to 48 months, providing they are brand new and being registered for the first time. The finance program runs through October 31.
In addition to a low finance rate on the model of the customer’s choice, Ducati is offering two programs as an additional benefit to those purchasing a new motorcycle. During the program period new Ducati owners may choose between generous trade-in allowances, or a year of “Full Factory Support” on select models.
The Trade-in Allowance program assists owners of older Ducatis and other manufacturer’s models in obtaining one of Ducati’s motorcycles with minimal out-of-pocket costs. This allowance is available for Hypermotard, Monster 1100 and 848 Superbike models.
An alternative benefit to those purchasing a new Ducati is the ability to incorporate the “Full Factory Support” service promotion. This covers the costs for the first year of regularly scheduled maintenance updates on 2008 and 2009 Ducati models. All a customer needs to do for qualification is purchase their new Ducati from a participating dealer by October 31, fill out the program enrollment form and start riding.
