Wonder, the immediate and most intense sensation one has when looking at and riding this magnificent creation. A magical and irrational wonder, engineered thanks to incredible Ducati brilliance and dedication. In the epic saga of Ducati superbikes, the new Panigale V4 represents the seventh generation, a synthesis of design and technology.
Form meets function.
The new Panigale V4 is the motorcycle that comes closest to the MotoGP, inheriting some of the technical solutions developed by the multi-world title winning team so as to offer the rider the same riding sensations as professional riders.
A magical combination that blends new design, aerodynamics, ergonomics, chassis and electronics solutions in the pursuit of perfection. Delve into the chapters of this wonderful story.
Aerodynamics:
The aerodynamics package and appendages evolves towards a total aerodynamic redesign to achieve maximum integration of the aesthetic and aerodynamic function. Work that has seen designers and Ducati Corse technicians come together to develop solutions that ensure less roll resistance, while maintaining high vertical load.
Ergonomics:
The main changes regard the contact points between motorcycle and rider and the position in the saddle. Tank, footpegs and seat fit area have been completely revised with the aim of heightening control in the most important phases of track riding and allowing the rider to fully exploit the performance of the Panigale V4 both over a single lap and during an extended session.
Chassis:
Based on Ducati Corse experience, the chassis layout aims to improve track performance, or rather faster lap times that are achieved with less effort and can be more consistently replicated by both amateurs and professionals. Thanks to solutions such as the Ducati Hollow Symmetrical Swingarm and Front Frame with reduced lateral stiffness, the new Panigale V4 is quicker through the most delicate phases of track riding.
Electronics:
The electronic solutions integrated into the new Panigale V4 offer the rider an even more safe and sophisticated superbike that can amplify the riding ability of every rider.
Engine:
The new Panigale V4 is powered by the latest generation Desmosedici Stradale. The MotoGP-derived engine evolves to conform with strict Euro 5+ standards and noise thresholds, achieving 216 hp of maximum power and dropping 1 kg in weight.
Customisations:
Ducati allows each rider to customise their Panigale V4. Riders can pick from a range of Ducati Performance accessories to enhance performance, aesthetics, and versatility. And by joining the exclusive Ducati Unica customisation programme, a rider can live the dream of creating their very own V4.
