The Multistrada V4 was the world’s first bike to integrate both front and rear radar, activating advanced rider assistance systems such as Adaptive Cruise Control, Forward Collision Warning and Blind Spot Detection. Adaptive Cruise Control automatically maintains a safe distance from the vehicle in front, while Forward Collision Warning warns the rider in case of a sudden approach. Blind Spot Detection helps to identity vehicles coming from behind, further improving safety.

*S Version Radar

The Multistrada V4 S comes complete with a 6.5” TFT dashboard designed to offer excellent readability in all conditions thanks to optical bonding technology. The graphics are complete and provide the rider with all the necessary information.

The system features integrated navigation with the Sygic GPS app, implemented thanks to a phone’s mirroring function, which also allows the rider to manage calls, view their contact list, or listen to music via the Ducati Multimedia System (DMS).

The standard version is equipped with a 5-inch TFT.

The system maintains its map navigation functions by way of the Ducati Connect app, which also supports use of a phone to manage calls and listen to music, all via an intercom-equipped helmet.

Management is via a joystick positioned on the left block, for quick and simple menu navigation. There are dedicated buttons with which to switch Riding Mode and adjust the suspension, while Adaptive Cruise Control is managed using the classic button and + and – keys, which serve to increase or reduce the distance a rider wants to maintain from the vehicle ahead while travelling. 

The best for road-going performance. In this mode, the new Multistrada V4 MY2025 delivers the full 170 hp with a direct, spirited response, managed with a sports suspension set-up in the S version. Ducati Traction Control and Ducati Wheelie Control invention are reduced to a minimum and the ABS, set to level 2, allows for controlled lifting of the rear wheel in order to maximize braking performance, while retaining the Cornering function. The ideal choice for expert riders who want to fully exploit the motorcycle’s potential.

In Touring Riding Mode, the Ducati Multistrada V4 unleashes its full 170 hp but delivery is smoother and more progressive. Higher DTC and DWC intervention levels make for better vehicle control. The ABS is set to level 3, the safest and most prudential thanks to rear-wheel lift detection, Cornering ABS functionality, and an optimised front/rear combined braking effect. The suspension set-up is designed, in the S version, for long journeys and offers maximum comfort to rider and passenger.

In Urban Riding Mode power output is reduced to a maximum of 114 hp with a particularly gentle and progressive response (Low Engine Mode), while the suspension calibration,in the S version, adapts to the roughness of city bottoms such as bumps, potholes and manholes, handling the constant surface changes better. DTC and DWC are set to high levels, while ABS is set to level 3.

The Enduro Riding Mode allows the new Multistrada V4 MY2025 to make the most of its off-road potential. This Riding Mode limits engine power to 114 hp with a dedicated Engine Mode (Offroad), for a more dynamic and direct response with respect to Urban Mode, despite equal power. This mode also sets, in the S version, the DSS Evolution specifically for off-road driving. DTC and DWC intervention is low, while the ABS is set at level 1, suitable for off-road use on low grip terrain. In this case, rear-wheel lift detection, Cornering ABS functionality, and rear wheel intervention are all disabled. 

The new Riding Mode Wet is designed for riding on low-grip surfaces, specifically in the wet. This mode limits maximum power to 114 hp with an especially smooth throttle response (Power Mode: Low). The default level of electronic controls is set to provide maximum stability and best grip.

The Automatic Lowering Device automatically and quickly lowers the vehicle when going below 10 km/h, and then returns to riding trim once 50 km/h has been passed, providing greater safety whenever it is necessary to put the foot down. The system allows seat lowering from 15 to 30 mm, depending on load (seat height: 810mm-825mm standard seat; 780mm-795mm lowered seat; 765mm-780mm lowered seat + suspension lowering kit). 

Available in S version. 

This feature acts on the suspension hydraulics by fully opening the semi-active unit valves for approximately three minutes when the ignition is switched on. This softens the suspension, making it easier to lift the bike off the stand.

Available in S version.

The exclusive Ducati Skyhook semi-active suspension system and its numerous configuration combinations allow the riding experience to be customised based on a specific route and riding style. The advantage of electronic suspension lies in the possibility to change bike behaviour in a matter of seconds and identify the ideal configuration for every type of use. Added to this is the new Bump Detection system, which automatically identifies any uneven terrain and transmits this information to the rear to instantly adjust suspension behaviour.

Available in S version.

The Multistrada V4 S's Electronic Combined Braking System (eCBS) greatly improves stability and safety. With its dual operational logic, front-to-rear and rear-to-front, the system optimizes combined front and rear braking. Front-to-rear logic activates the rear brake when the front brake is applied, improving stability and effectiveness in high decelerations. Rear-to-front logic, on the other hand, supports deceleration and promotes greater cornering stability. This contributes to a more relaxed ride and more effective braking management. The rider can choose to take advantage of front-to-rear braking only by selecting abs 2 or take advantage of both front-to-rear and rear-to-front braking by choosing abs 3.
