Ducati has been dominating the adventure motorcycle segment with its popular Multistrada lineup.

  • With over 100,000 units sold, the Multistrada has been the bikemaker’s crowning glory and remains its best-selling motorcycle in 2023. 
  • The Multistrada V4 continue to be the firm’s most popular motorcycle since it’s introduction.

Given this resounding triumph, it comes as no surprise that Ducati plans to further expand its Multistrada offerings in 2024. Recently, the company confirmed its intentions by filing trademarks for two new models in the United States.

These motorcycles are set to be high-spec variants of the existing adventure bikes, and enthusiasts are eager to learn more.

One of the anticipated releases is the Ducati Multistrada V4 Grand Tour for the 2024 model year. Having received certification from the California Air Resources Board (CARB), this adventure-packed motorcycle promises to deliver a thrilling experience for riders.

Drawing inspiration from its predecessor, the 2020 Multistrada 1260 S Grand Tour, the V4 Grand Tour is expected to come equipped with practical features such as hard saddlebags, auxiliary lights, a center stand, and new saddles.

On top of that, riders can anticipate an array of creature comforts, including a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS), electronic gas cap, heated grips, and keyless ignition.

Ducati is likely to adopt a similar approach to the 2024 Multistrada Grand Tour, building on the existing V4 S model by adding the missing elements that distinguish it from its standard counterpart. The addition of these premium features, coupled with a bespoke colorway for enhanced exclusivity, promises to make the Grand Tour a truly coveted adventure motorcycle.

Nevertheless, the Multistrada V4 Grand Tour is set to retain its powerhouse performance, maintaining the formidable Granturismo 1,158cc V4 engine capable of delivering 170hp @ 10,500rpm and 125Nm @ 8,750rpm via h a six-speed gearbox.

Similarly, riders can rely on a wide range of advanced rider aids, including various ride modes, power modes, wheelie control, radar-guided cruise control, and traction control.

Ducati enthusiasts can also rest assured that the suspension will remain unchanged, with the bike featuring 50mm USD forks and a monoshock at the rear, both equipped with Ducati’s Skyhook technology for electronic adjustability.

With the exciting prospect of the Multistrada V4 Grand Tour joining the illustrious Multistrada lineup, adventure motorcycle enthusiasts have even more to look forward to in 2024.

The newest family member of the Multistrada, the Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally has entered production and is set to arrived global dealership from February. 

  • The 2023 Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally features a new adaptive ride height function similar to the Harley-Davidson Pan America.
  • Equipped with longer suspension travel and a bigger fuel tank. 

The Borgo Panigale factory announced the off-road-focused edition late in 2022 with the production only to begin this year. 

While it carries the same Granturismo V4 engine as the base model, the Multistrada V4 Rally offers greater off-road capabilities thanks to an increase of 30mm of wheel travel on the Showa Skyhook suspension.

 

Also new on the Rally edition is an off-road specific mode that cuts the peak power to just 114hp – from the 170 peak power – which also reduced the electronic intervention particularly the traction control. This allows the Rally to offer better slip and slide while off-road.

In addition, the Rally also features a massive 30-liter fuel tank and low-speed deactivation of the engine’s rear cylinder bank. 

Nonetheless, the Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally feature much of its equipment from the standard Multistrada V4 including a 6.5-inch TFT display.

According to Ducati, the Rally comes in three variants; Adventure Radar, Adventure Radar & Travel and Full Adventure. 

The 2023 Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally are available in ‘Ducati Red’ and ‘Brushed Aluminium and Black’ colour scheme. 

Ducati has just unleashed the new Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally for 2023.

  • The 2023 Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally features a new adaptive ride height function similar to the Harley-Davidson Pan America.
  • Equipped with longer suspension travel and a bigger fuel tank. 

Set to go head to head with BMW’s R 1250 GS Adventure and Triumph’s Tiger 1200 Explorer range, the Multistrada V4 Rally gets more range, better off-road capability and improved comfort.

However, the new variant is born for dirt, as the name suggests. 

New for 2023 is a longer suspension travel that now sits at 200mm, an increase of 30mm. 

In addition, the top-spec semi-active Showa Skyhook suspension also features self-levelling ability. 

Ducati also added a new power mode on the Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally that allows for a better riding experience for extreme off-roading. 

The new Enduro Riding Mode reduced the power to just 114hp and adjusted the traction control switches to a lower intervention level. Wheelie control and rear-wheel ABS are also deactivated to adapt to off-road riding. 

However, peak power and torque remains at 170hp @ 10,500 rpm and 125Nm @ 8,750rpm.

The new Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally also comes with spoked wheels as standard, a feature that is an option on the V4 S.

Coming on to the best bits, the new Multistrada V4 Rally is slapped with a massive 30L fuel tank, pushing the bike’s range to about 370 kilometres. 

According to Ducati, the Granturismo V4 engine now features rear cylinder deactivation that’s not only operates during a standstill but also while riding gently. The new feature can help to boost the bike’s fuel economy.

Also new on the Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally is the introduction of an adaptive ride height function similar to the Harley-Davidson Pan America 1250.

The suspension will lower the bike’s height when the ignition is turned on, making it easier to get on and off the motorcycle. 

Ducati secured the first half of 2022 with remarkable result despite various challenges resulting from the ongoing logistic crisis.

  • Ducati sold more than 33,000 motorcycles for first half of 2022.
  • China emerged as a vast growing market, with more than 2,000 units sold. 

Nevertheless, the Bologna-based motorcycle manufacturer managed to deliver a total of 33,265 units of motorcycles to Ducatisti around the world. Although the numbers is slightly lower than the previous year (34,515) but considering the ongoing crisis, a drop of just 3.6 percent is still a remarkable achievement within the period.

Also, Ducati’s revenue grew by 5.4 percent to EUR542million, a highest figure ever recorded in the first six months by any two-wheel manufacturer.

“2021 was a record year for Ducati with the best result ever in terms of deliveries, revenues and operating profit. 2022 is proving to be a more challenging year: despite strong demand from enthusiasts, as evidenced by the order portfolio which at the end of the first half is up + 86% over the same period of 2021, the strong discontinuity in the world of logistics and supply remains.

“However, we managed to obtain satisfactory results considering the context in which we are operating, especially in terms of revenue, which is the best ever recorded in the first six months of the year.

“I would like to thank once again all the enthusiasts who continue to choose us, and I personally apologize to all those who had to or will have to wait longer than necessary to receive their bike,” said Ducati CEO, Claudio Domenicali.

The Ducati Multistrada V4 proven to be the pièce de résistance, emerging as the most popular bikes for the first six months of the year with 6,139 units sold globally.

Next is the Monster with 4,776 units followed by the Scrambler 800 family with 3,999 units.

Revised Ducati Malaysia prices sees several models experiencing price hikes, but there are some with unchanged prices still.

Ducati Malaysia telah pun mengemas kini senarai harga bagi model Ducati yang ditawarkan di Malaysia.

Menurut senarai harga yang dikongsikan, rata-rata kesemua model mengalami kenaikan harga bagi tahun 2022.

Bagaimanapun, model Multistrada V4 S mengalami kenaikan harga paling banyak dengan RM9,000 kepada RM155,900.

Berikut senarai harga baharu yang telah dikemas kini untuk pasaran tempatan:

Namun, terdapat beberapa model yang masih mengekalkan harga sama antaranya Streetfighter V4 SP (RM239,900), Multistrada V4 Standard (RM135,900) serta Panigale V4 SP (RM279,900).

Ducati ends Q1 2022 on a high after charting record-breaking deliveries of 13,450 units, Multistrada V4 leads the charge here.

The KTM 1290 Super Adventure is KTM’s flagship adventure tourer; hence, the bike comes with a hefty price tag.

Moreover, the 1290 Super Adventure is KTM’s answer to ward off Ducati’s Multistrada V4 and BMW’s R 1250 GS challenge.

The 1290 Super Adventure is equipped with the most technologically advanced feature, including Bosch radar-assisted technology – that allows functions like adaptive cruise control and blind-spot detection – to ensure it’s on par with the rest of its rivals.

However, the advanced technology puts the 1290 Super Adventure on the pricey spectrum, which subsequently impacted the sales of the Austrian bike.

Moreover, why would you spend RM132k on a KTM when you can get the Multistrada V4 for just RM3k extra and the R 1250 GS for a lesser price?

This brings us to the latest reports by a German publication, Motorrad Online, which claimed that the folks over at Mattighofen are rumoured to be working on a base model 1290 Super Adventure, hoping it could compete with its rival price tag.

According to the report, KTM is working on an ‘affordable’ version of the 1290 Super Adventure devoid of the fancy electronic suspension and the radar-powered adaptive cruise control.

Further speculation suggests that the base 1290 Super Adventure could be a more off-road capable ADV than its higher-spec model.

While the news sounds enticing, none of this has been confirmed by KTM. However, the prospect of a ‘cheaper’ 1290 Super Adventure could still be in the cards. 

The Multistrada V4 is fast becoming Ducati’s most popular bike after ending 2021 as the best-selling model from the Borgo Panigale factory.

The new Multistrada V4 already established itself as the go-to adventure bike in its debut year.

For 2022, Ducati decided to revise the Multistrada V4 S with an all-new Iceberg White livery joining the already available Ducati Red and Aviator Grey colour options.

Interestingly, Ducati also updated the Multistrada V4 electronic package. The semi-automatic function of the electronic suspension now gets a new feature called Minimum Preload.

The new feature allows riders to reduce the height of the bike and make it easier to place their feet on the ground, especially during urban riding or manoeuvring at low speeds.

Ducati also upgraded the Ducati Connect and Human-Machine Interface function.

For current owners of the Multistrada V4 S, worry not, as these electronic updates are available to you. Ducati will reach out to you (gradually) via the MyDucati App and email and inform the availability of the updates.

Ducati Petaling Jaya is having a special promotion for the last three units of the base Ducati Multistrada V4.

From now until 28 February, every purchase of the Ducati Multistrada V4 now includes RM35,000 worth of accessories for free!

The free RM35,000 package includes:

  • Akrapovic full system exhaust
  • Crash bar
  • Side panniers with cover sets
  • Belly pan
  • Touring handguard

Ducati PJ also threw in the road tax and insurance for free, so customers do not need to worry about putting any additional payment apart from the bike’s price tag.

Interested parties can reach out to Ducati PJ for more info or just walk into the showroom. Please be reminded that the promo is on a first-come-first-served basis while stock last.
