For the past twenty years, the Multistrada has been the embodiment of Ducati's commitment to merging versatility with high-octane performance. The name 'Multistrada' - which translates to 'many roads' - perfectly encapsulates the spirit of a motorcycle that has been defying conventions since its inception.
A Journey Through Time
Launched in 2003, the Multistrada was Ducati's answer to riders seeking a bike that could effortlessly switch between a city commuter to an off-road adventurer. The initial version, the Multistrada 1000 DS, laid the foundation for what would become a lineage of powerful and versatile machines, culminating in the recent models powered by the V2 and V4 Granturismo engines.
Trailblazing Innovations
Across two decades, the Multistrada family has been at the forefront of motorcycle innovations. From introducing the Riding Modes in the 2010 iteration - a feature now ubiquitous in modern motorcycles - to the world's first bike equipped with a front and rear radar in the Multistrada V4. This particular innovation led to the advent of the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Blind Spot Detection (BSD) systems, substantially enhancing rider safety and convenience. The Phone Mirroring feature, allowing riders to have a map display while still seeing critical riding data, is another testament to Ducati's forward-thinking approach.
Commemorating the Icon at Ducati Museum
Marking two decades of the Multistrada's legacy, Ducati has unveiled a special exhibition titled "Multistrada 20th - A Journey of Evolutionary Exploration" within its museum premises. Visitors can relive the journey of the Multistrada, from its initial vision with the Multistrada 1000 DS to the latest Multistrada V4 Rally, which showcases the evolution and technological strides made over the years.
Looking Ahead
The legacy of the Multistrada will continue to shine brightly at the upcoming Ducati World Premiere 2024. Following the premiere of the Monster 30th Anniversary edition, Ducati enthusiasts can look forward to the unveiling of several new models that promise to redefine motorcycling standards.
For details on museum visitation and bookings, Ducati has a dedicated section on their website - Borgo Panigale Experience.
