2022 Ducati Multistrada V4 S unveiled: Check new features
Italian automaker Ducati has unveiled the 2022 version of the Multistrada V4 S adventure bike. The upgrades include a new 'Iceberg White' livery, software updates to the bike's infotainment user interface, and a new semi-automatic function for the electronic suspension. The new electronic updates will be offered to existing V4 S customers free of charge and Ducati will contact them individually.
- With new upgrades to the Multistrada V4 S, Ducati has taken the crowd-pulling bike to another level. We can assume that the company aims to replicate the success it had with it in 2021.
- Of all the upgrades, what stands out is the new suspension function in the V4 S which reduces the height of the motorcycle when necessary.
The 2022 Ducati Multistrada V4 S sports an aggressive design with a muscular fuel tank, a split-style seat, an upswept exhaust, a prominent beak, and a raised transparent windscreen. It packs a 6.5-inch TFT screen with a new user interface and Ducati Connect system. The V4 S is offered in a new Iceberg White colorway along with Ducati Red and Aviator Gray shades.
The Ducati Multistrada V4 S is powered by a 1,158cc, liquid-cooled, V4 Granturismo engine that generates 170hp of maximum power and 125Nm of peak torque. Transmission duties are handled by a 6-speed gearbox.
The Ducati Multistrada V4 S is equipped with disc brakes, cornering ABS, wheelie control, traction control, cruise control, and vehicle hold control. Suspension duties are taken care of by fully-adjustable inverted forks on the front and a fully-adjustable mono-shock rear unit. The electronic suspension gets a 'Minimum Preload' function that allows the rider to reduce the height of the motorcycle when necessary.
The 2022 Ducati Multistrada V4 S is priced at $26,095 (around Rs. 19.6 lakh). The bike is expected to come to India later this year.
