The Ducati Panigale V4 is the Italian brand’s first production Ducati motorcycle to mount a 4-cylinder engine, derived directly from the MotoGP Desmosedici. The 1,103 cc 90° V4 with Desmodromic timing, delivers 214 PS at 13,000 rpm. This makes the Panigale V4 the most powerful bike in the segment. A peak torque of 124 Nm comes in at 10,000 rpm.

Standard features include multiple Riding Modes, Power Modes, Bosch Cornering ABS EVO, Ducati Traction Control (DTC) EVO, Ducati Wheelie Control (DWC) EVO; Ducati Slide Control (DSC), Engine Brake Control (EBC) EVO, and Auto tyre calibration. The Panigale S comes with Ohlins suspension featuring the Smart EC 2.0 system with a new adjustment interface, and top-drawer components such as forged aluminium wheels and lithium-ion battery. This makes it 3 kg lighter than the standard V4, at 195 kg, kerb.
