The “Rally” model of the Multistrada V4 features semi-active suspensions with travel increased of 200mm with a higher ground clearance. It also offers a new Power Mode dedicated to off-roading, wider footpegs with removable rubber inserts.

The Multistrada V4 Rally is also equipped with an Auto-levelling function for added passenger and luggage weight distribution. The new 30-litre aluminium tank will further increase the refuelling range for the most remote roads. A centre stand comes as standard to help with loading of the side cases and perform any maintenance on long journeys.

Hi-tech safety

The Multistrada V4 was the first motorcycle in the world equipped with a front and rear radar system to support the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), and Blind Spot Detection (BSD), which signals the presence of vehicles approaching in the blind corner of the mirrors.

The 6.5-inch TFT colour dashboard offers map navigation features thanks to the Ducati Connect application, which supports the use of a mobile phone to answer calls or listen to music, using a helmet equipped with an intercom system.

The Rally is also equipped with ABS, Ducati Cornering Lights (DCL), which improve night visibility by illuminating the inside of corners, Ducati Wheelie Control (DWC) and Ducati Traction Control (DTC).

Enduro Mode

There are 4 Riding Modes (Sport, Touring, Urban and Enduro), which on the Multistrada V4 Rally sees an important evolution of the Enduro mode. Enduro Riding Mode activates a dedicated Power Mode, which limits the power of the engine to 114 hp and reduces the DTC intervention level while deactivating DWC and ABS on the rear wheel for off-road use.

Fuel saver

The Multistrada V4 Rally also introduces a brand-new strategy of extended deactivation of the rear cylinder bank. In addition to switching off the rear cylinders at idle, deactivation also takes place even with the motorcycle in motion: as speed increases or above a certain power request from the throttle grip, the rear cylinders are reactivated. This system is active in all Riding Modes.

Engine and chassis

The 1,158 cc V4 Granturismo engine delivers 170 hp (125 kW) at 10,750 rpm and 121 Nm at 8,750 rpm, with a linear torque curve. The performance of this engine, combined with its total weight of only 66.7 kg, gives the V4 Granturismo an amazing power-to-weight ratio.

The Multistrada V4 Rally continues with the monocoque aluminium frame, light and compact, with a double-sided swingarm shell-cast in aluminium.

Versions

The new Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally is offered in three different versions:

  • Adventure Radar, equipped with Adaptive Cruise Control and Blind Spot Detection,
  • Adventure Travel & Radar, which adds aluminium side cases, heated grips and saddles
  • Full Adventure adds to this latter equipment with a homologated Akrapovič silencer and a carbon fibre front mudguard.
