The 2026 Ducati Multistrada V2 is designed for riders who want the versatility of a twin-cylinder engine combined with sportiness and everyday usability. It boasts an 890cc V-twin engine delivering 115hp at 10,750 rpm and 92Nm of torque at 8,250 rpm. The new model is 18kg lighter than its predecessor, tipping the scales at a kerb weight of 199kg (202kg for the S variant), thanks in part to a 19-litre fuel tank that is one litre smaller than before.

Styling updates include new aggressive headlights and DRLs inspired by the latest Panigale and Multistrada V4, along with a sharper silencer design. Both variants feature a 6-speed gearbox with a slipper clutch and bi-directional quickshifter. The S variant is equipped with semi-active Ducati Skyhook Suspension offering electronic adjustments and a Minimum Preload function to lower the rear suspension at the touch of a button. Additionally, the bike sports a monocoque front frame, replacing the previous trellis design.

Electronics are comprehensive with a 5-inch TFT display offering five riding modes — Sport, Touring, Urban, Enduro, and Wet — that adjust cornering ABS, traction control, wheelie control, and engine braking. Standard features include cruise control, a USB socket integrated into the dashboard, and Ducati Brake Light EVO, which flashes during emergency braking. Redesigned ergonomics and a lower seat height make the Multistrada V2 easier to handle at low speeds and when stationary.

Available in Ducati Red and Storm Green (S variant), the Multistrada V2 is priced at Rs 18.88 lakh for the V2 and Rs 20.99 lakh to Rs 21.29 lakh for the S variant. It is now available across dealerships in India.
