Ducati presents the new Panigale V4 S 2025, a completely revamped Superbike that retains the 1103 cc Desmosedici Stradale V4 engine, now Euro 5+ compliant, with 216 hp and 12.3 kgm of torque. New features include new camshafts and redesigned intake funnels, plus a power increase to 228 hp with the Akrapovic exhaust in track configuration. Aerodynamics have been improved with wing profiles integrated into the fairing, reducing drag by 4% and increasing rider protection. Ergonomics have also been revised, with a new seat-tank assembly that improves comfort and provides better support under braking. The footpegs are now 10 mm more inwards to increase ground clearance. The chassis sees the introduction of a double-sided swingarm, 2.7 kg lighter than the previous single-sided swingarm, and with less lateral rigidity. The front frame has also been lightened, improving cornering precision. Öhlins NPX/TTX suspension and Brembo Hypure brakes, together with lighter forged wheels, complete the package. The electronics include the Race eCBS system and the new Ducati Vehicle Observer algorithm, capable of managing the controls even more precisely compared to the past thanks to over 70 simulated sensors.
