At the 2024 World Ducati Week, Ducati unveiled the revamped Panigale V4, showcasing a sharper, sleeker, and more aggressive design.
Bold New Design
The new Panigale V4 features sleeker LED headlights, inspired by the Ducati Multistrada V4, replacing the previous LED projectors. The larger windscreen and new aerodynamic winglets, now body-colored and positioned below the headlights, add to the bike’s aggressive look. The redesigned side fairing, fuel tank, footrest, and tail section, complete with a new LED tail light, enhance both aesthetics and functionality.
Enhanced Ergonomics
Ducati has improved the Panigale V4’s ergonomics, with a new 17-litre fuel tank offering better support, a longer and wider seat for more comfort, and footpegs positioned 10mm further back. These changes aim to make the riding position less demanding.
Tweaked Chassis
The new Panigale V4 features a “Front Frame” with reduced lateral stiffness for better feel and faster corner speeds, along with a new hollow symmetrical swingarm for greater mechanical grip and stability. The Panigale V4 S variant includes the third generation of Ohlins electronic suspension, with an NPX-30 pressurised fork at the front and a TTX36 monoshock at the rear.
Upgraded Brakes and Wheels
The bike is equipped with new Brembo Hypure callipers, an evolution of the Brembo Stylema calipers, offering better heat dissipation and reduced weight. The new 17-inch alloy wheels are lighter by 2.17kg, reducing inertia and improving performance. The wheels are fitted with Pirelli Diablo Supercorse SP-V4 tyres.
Powerful Engine and Advanced Electronics
The Euro5+ compliant 1,103cc V4 engine delivers 214bhp at 13,500rpm and 120.9Nm at 11,250rpm, paired with a six-speed gearbox and a standard quickshifter. The bike also boasts advanced electronics, including multiple power and ride modes, traction control, wheelie control, and slide control, all accessible via a new 6.9-inch high-resolution TFT display.
