2020 MV Agusta Superveloce 800 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by MV Agusta for the sport motorcycle segment, the 2020 MV Agusta Superveloce 800 utilizes a 798 cc (48.7 cu in) oil & air-cooled in-line three, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 148 HP (108 kW) at 13,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 88 Nm (64.9 lb-ft) at 10,600 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 185.5 HP per liter and a 2,400 rpm working window between peak torque (10,600 rpm) and peak power (13,000 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.

On the scales, the Superveloce 800 measures 173 kg (381 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.86 HP/kg (1.17 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 830 mm (32.7 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,380 mm (54.3 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 16.5-liter (4.4 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 6.4 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 258 km (160 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 240 km/h (149 mph).

Within MotoLibrary's MV Agusta archive, this model family spans 5 indexed model years from 2020 to 2024, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
