- Ducati Multistrada V4 and Multistrada V4 S to be launched in India in July
- Pre-bookings open at Ducati dealerships
- Motorcycle to use a new 1,158cc, V4, liquid-cooled engine
Ducati India has confirmed via its social media handles that the new Multistrada V4 will arrive on our shores this month. The V4-engine powered adventure tourer from the Italian two-wheeler manufacturer will rival the BMW R 1250 GS series. The German adventure tourer is scheduled to be launched in India on 8 July, 2021.
The pre-bookings for the new Multistrada V4, as reported earlier, had commenced in April this year. Internationally, the new Multistrada V4 is available in three variants – V4, V4 S, and the V4 S Sport. We expect Ducati India to introduce two variants of the Multistrada V4 – Standard and V4 S – in our market. Both motorcycles will use the new 1,158cc, four-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that produces 168bhp of power at 10,000rpm and 125Nm of peak torque at 8,750rpm. The motor will be linked to a six-speed transmission.
In other updates, the company is currently working on the Pikes Peak variant of the adventure tourer. The upcoming variant of the Multistrada V4 range, which was spotted via spy photographs, will feature 17-inch wheels on both ends, a single-sided swingarm, and an Akrapovic exhaust system. The unveiling details for the Pikes Peak edition are unavailable at the moment.
