Powertrain & Performance
At the heart of the Multistrada V4 lies the 1,158cc Granturismo V4 engine—the most powerful motor in its segment, delivering 167.62 bhp and 125 Nm of torque. Mated to a 6-speed manual transmission, the bike offers dynamic riding modes (Urban, Touring, and Sport) to suit diverse terrains.
Despite its size, the engine is impressively tractable in the city, and it delivers thrilling acceleration on highways. The top speed is rated at around 180 kmph, making it one of the fastest ADVs in the country.
Comfort & Ergonomics
The Multistrada V4 is designed with long-distance touring in mind. The adjustable seat height (from 790 mm with optional kits to 875 mm) caters to riders of all heights. The Ducati Skyhook Suspension (DSS), available in the V4 S and above, allows on-the-fly adjustments for preload and damping, ensuring comfort across all types of roads.
Whether tackling Mumbai’s potholes or cruising on highways, the ride quality remains plush and refined—a true touring luxury.
Radar Tech & Safety Features
Ducati has gone high-tech with the Multistrada V4 S, making it India’s first motorcycle to feature front and rear radar-based systems:
- Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
- Blind Spot Detection (BSD)
- Ducati Traction Control (DTC)
- Wheelie Control (DWC)
- Cornering ABS
- Cornering Lights
- Hill Hold Assist (VHC)
These features not only enhance riding confidence but also set the Multistrada apart from every other ADV on Indian roads.
Mileage, Range & Maintenance
The claimed mileage of 15 kmpl is decent for a 170 bhp motorcycle. With a 22-liter tank, real-world touring range crosses 300 km. Aggressive riding, however, can lower mileage to single digits.
The maintenance schedule includes oil changes every 15,000 km and valve checks at 60,000 km, with Ducati now offering a ‘Ducati Protect’ maintenance contract for hassle-free ownership.

- Digital Instrument Cluster
- GPS Navigation & Mobile Connectivity
- Riding Modes & Power Modes
- Dual-channel ABS
- Cruise Control
- USB Charging Port
- LED Headlights, DRLs & Tail Lamps
- Hazard Lights & Shift Indicators
These premium features make the Multistrada V4 not just a motorcycle, but a tech-loaded grand tourer.
