Ducati fires up Lenovo 5 laptop PC

Chinese computer company Lenovo signed a multi-year agreement with Italian motorcycle manufacturer Ducati in 2018.

Initially the agreement was to support the Ducati MotoGP team with computer firepower, but also to develop products and collaborate on research and development.

The result of this collaboration includes special products such as this limited-edition Lenovo Ducati 5 laptop PC, starting at $1999. Only 12,000 will be produced.Ducati Lenovo 5 laptop PC

It is based on Intel Core i5 processors up to the 10th generation, with a 14-inch full HD display with a thin bezel and Dolby Audio speakers facing upwards.

Lenovo Ducati 5 also has a fingerprint reader on the power button for secure access that is quicker than entering a password.

There’s also a Privacy Shutter, so you can close the webcam when you don’t want to be disturbed.

Matching Ducati’s MO of lightweight and powerful motorcycles, the laptop is 19.1mm thin and weighs only 1.52kg.
