Built around Ducati's sport motorcycle platform, the 2023 Ducati Multistrada V4 features a 1158 cc (70.7 cu in) liquid-cooled v4, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 170 HP (124.1 kW) at 10,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 125 Nm (92.2 lb-ft) at 8,750 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 146.8 HP per liter and a 1,750 rpm working window between peak torque (8,750 rpm) and peak power (10,500 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the Multistrada V4 measures 242 kg (534 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.7 HP/kg (1.42 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 840 mm (33.1 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,567 mm (61.7 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 22-liter (5.8 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 6.5 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 338 km (210 miles) between fill-ups.
