Ducati launches new 2025 Multistrada V4, even more refined and with automatic suspension lowering
Ducati has launched the 2025 model of the Multistrada V4 in Europe, its most extreme adventure crossover, which is even more refined, more comfortable, and even features technology used in MotoGP for automatic suspension lowering.
One of the highlights of the model is this lowering system called the ‘Automatic Lowering Device’. It quickly lowers the bike by up to 30 mm when the speed drops below 10 km/h.
When the rider accelerates again and the speed exceeds 50 km/h, the bike returns to its normal height, all done very quickly.
With this, shorter riders can be even more at ease, as maneuvering this tall bike is much easier and more comfortable.
Another highlight of the new Multistrada V4 is the extended deactivation of the rear cylinders, further reducing fuel consumption by up to 6%.
According to the company, the model already featured deactivation of the rear cylinders when the bike was stopped and idling. The new feature now is the extension of this feature to also when the bike is moving.
The cylinders are only reactivated after a certain speed or when a little more torque is required, depending on the position of the accelerator. This feature cannot be disabled and is present in all riding modes.
The new Ducati Multistrada V4 2025 (including the V4 S and Pikes Peak variants) will hit stores in October in three color options: Ducati Red, Thrilling Black and Arctic White.
