Engineered by Ducati for the naked motorcycle segment, the 2024 Ducati Superleggera V4 features a 998 cc (60.9 cu in) liquid-cooled v4, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 224 HP (163.5 kW) at 15,250 rpm while maximum torque reaches 116 Nm (85.6 lb-ft) at 11,750 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 224.4 HP per liter and a 3,500 rpm working window between peak torque (11,750 rpm) and peak power (15,250 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the Superleggera V4 measures 167 kg (368 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 1.34 HP/kg (0.75 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 835 mm (32.9 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,480 mm (58.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 16-liter (4.2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 8 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 200 km (124 miles) between fill-ups.
