The Ducati Panigale V4S 2025: The Superbike Masterpiece

A motor that thinks faster than you...

The newestDucati Panigale V4Sis more than "just" a motorcycle; it is a masterpiece that combines technology, speed, and style in a way that only Ducati can deliver. This 2025 version takes the superbike experience to the next level and promises that every ride will be an adrenaline-pumping adventure. So, what are we waiting for? Put on your helmet and get ready for some serious shortcuts, because we're diving deeper into this beast of a motorcycle!

Ready, Set, Panigale!

The newPani is equipped with an advanced electronic system that feels as if the engine can almost read thoughts. With more than 70 sensors, a Inertial Measurement Unit(IMU) with six axes and the groundbreakingDucati Vehicle Observer (DVO) system, this engine knows exactly what you are doing, even before you realize it yourself.

Are you braking hard, in the middle of a turn, or giving full throttle? The system manages grip, traction, and even wheelie control, so you are always in the "sweet spot" remains. Compare it to a dog on a leash: you can test the limits, but the Panigale keeps you safely in line.

Race-Ready Brake Technology

Ducati'snew (eCBS)Elektronisch gecombineerd remsysteem is not your everyday ABS. This together with Bosch The developed system controls the rear brake while cornering, ensuring a smoother and more precise riding experience. For riders who rarely use the rear brake, this is a real gamechanger. 

For those who want to stay in control: you can customize the system to your own driving style. So a perfect balance between old-school and advanced technology!

Under the hull beats the heart of Ducati'sfamousDesmosedici Stradale1,103cc V4 engine. With no less than 216 hp at 13,500 rpm (or 209 hp in some markets), the V4S shoots forward like a rocket. Add the impressive torque curve to that, and you have an engine that performs just as well on a racetrack as during a fast ride through the mountains.

Still too sappy for you?Ducati offers an exhaust option of Akrapovic which increases the power to 225 hp and reduces the weight by more than 6.5 kg. Someone ready for the circuit? You may then just €5,649 extra typing.

Yep, the so-called "Wings" are indispensable and that also applies to the Duc. The advantage? They are assembled at the factory at no extra cost...

Of course, the above is not the only reason why these wings are mounted; they are designed to optimize the airflow over the engine. By creating extra pressure on the front of the engine, the wings help keep the front wheels on the ground, which is crucial for grip and control when taking sharp turns. However, the speed needs to be quite high for this to be effective.

At around 250 km/h, up to 30KG of downforce is generated. Whether we will notice that remains to be seen.

A Comfortable Knee Clamp and More... Ergonomics?

Yes, even on a superbike like this, you can still talk about comfort.The Panigale V4S has 10 mm narrower footrests now, which provides a tighter feel and more control when steering into corners​.

And don't forget that new 6.5-inch TFT display: bright, modern, and with all the information you need while tearing through the corners. Even your lean angle and real-time engine performance are displayed.


This red powerhouse is the perfect blend of racing DNA and street fun. Every aspect, from the suspension to the brakes and electronics, is designed to make you ride faster, safer, and with more enjoyment. 

The much-discussed topic, the swingarm..

Yes, the rear swingarm of the 2025 model has indeed changed.Ducati has decided to introduce a double rear swingarm, which is a striking shift from the single arm design that many Ducati models in the past had. This double rear swingarm reduces the lateral stiffness by 37%, which contributes to better mechanical grip and more feedback for the rider. This improves driving behavior and control, especially in corners​.

Ducati has performed very well in recent years. In 2018 broke Ducatiwith tradition through thePanigale V4 to introduce, which was a historic moment. This engine was directly inspired by Ducati's MotoGP race machine , the Desmosedici . The name "Panigale" is a tribute to Borgo Panigale, the home of Ducatiin Bologna, Italy​

What thePanigale V4S what makes it so special is the direct connection to the MotoGP racing world. Ducati used all experience from the highest class of motorsport to develop the Desmosedici Stradale V4 engine. This engine block is characterized by its unique "Twin Pulse"ignition order, giving it a distinctive sound and extremely linear power delivery.

Ducati's involvement in racing has led to much of the advanced electronics we now see on the Panigale V4S, such as the advanced driver assistance systems and sophisticated aerodynamics, ensuring that even street riders can benefit from technology derived from racing machines.

In short, the new Panigale V4S is not only a step forward in technology and performance, but also a tribute to the deep bond between Ducati and the racing world, and an ode to the engineers who brought this machine to life. It is the perfect symbiosis of the past, present, and future of Ducati.

Passion, speed, and tech are the hallmarks of the present Ducati's. The Italians truly live up to their name with the models currently on the market and being launched. And we're not just talking about the racing models.

You are buying aDucati out of love for two-wheelers, the pure beauty that a piece of steel can offer, and of course a great symbol of luxury and performance. If the above fits your lifestyle, then by all means open your wallet. Because the famous Italian prices will not change.

Dreaming and drooling is allowed, and that can happen quite quickly! Because soon this will be available Ducat the dealers in the showroom. Are you going to take a look, or secretly book a test drive?
