The 2026 Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally has been revealed, featuring some revisions to the first version launched just 3 years ago. Before we move on, let us draw a deep (and deeper) breath as the new bike is equipped with almost everything in the alphabet. Highlights Still powered by the madcap 1158cc, Granturism0 V4 engine, which produces 170 hp at 10,750 RPM and 121 Nm at 8,750 RPM. Ducati says that it delivers “a particularly linear torque curve,” but we wonder that means they have addressed the engine’s slightly anaemic power delivery at lower revs and speeds. As per the Panigale V4/V4 S, Multistrada V4/V4 S, and Diavel V4/V4 S models, the engine deactivates the rear cylinder bank while in a standstill and at low revs,to save fuel and cut down on emissions. The Granturismo V4 features conventional valvetrain, as opposed to Ducati’s Desmo, thus valve clearance interval is set at 60,000 km. As for servicing, the interval is every 15,000 km. To boost off-road capabilities, the suspension on the Rally has 200 mm of travel for both front and rear axles, increasing ground clearance to 230 mm. Speaking of suspension, the 2026 Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally boasts a new electronic semi-active Marzocchi suspension, called Adaptive DSS Evo. It allows for adjustment of the preload and hydraulic compression and rebound damping of the fork and rear shock absorber. Sensors can even tell if you are riding over a bump or into a pothole, and adjusts the damping accordingly. (Superb for Malayian roads!) The suspension is equipped with a (switchable) Automatic Lowering Device (ALD) which drops the bike’s seat height when speeds go below 9 km/h – great for trudging in off-road conditions or riding through heavy traffic. It then returns to the normal set height when you hit 20 km/h off-road, or 45 km/h on the road. Suspension settings can be made while the bike is moving. Its algorithm works in conjunction with the Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), which in turn sends data to the ABS, ECBS, EBC, DTC, DWC, ACC, BSD, BSW, FCW, BLE control units or servos. But wait, no karaoke function? (Just kidding.) Other electronic features include Electronic Combined Braking System, and Adaptive Cruise Control which utilises the bike’s radar. The radar also runs the blind-spot detection and forward collision warning features. The TFT screen measures 6.5 inches and through it, you can select your riding modes, Ducati Connect, suspension control, and more. Ducati pays a lot of attention to aerodynamic of course, not just for their MotoGP bikes. As such, the Multistrada V4 Rally has front wind deflectors that increase protection for the rider and passenger. The windshield is also 40 mm wider and 20 mm taller. Additionally, the pannier mounting positions have been revised to “provide ample legroom for the passenger.” Wheels are spoked aluminium. Last but not least, the bike is equipped with a 30-litre fuel tank. Colour options are Ducati Red/Brushed Aluminium with black spoked wheels, and Jade Green/Brushed Aluminium with gold spoked wheels. The 2026 Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally is priced from USD31,995 (MYR135,194.81)
