The new Multistrada comes equipped with safety features like Blind Spot Detection (BSD), Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), and cornering ABS. The handlebar is also new, and to improve comfort, it is mounted on the steering head.

In addition, the motorcycle has an auto-leveling function that detects its setup and automatically adjusts the seat back to its original, perfect height from the ground in all riding positions, and a manual adjustment is also available.
The suspension duties on the motorcycle are done by the Ducati Skyhook Suspension (DSS), which is a semi-active suspension control system. The Multistrada V4 S Grand Tour is powered by the same 1,158-cc V4 Granturismo engine that churns out 167 bhp of maximum power at 10,500 rpm and a peak torque output of 125 Nm at 8,750 rpm. The engine is paired with a 6-speed gearbox through a bi-directional quickshifter. The motorcycle comes equipped with features like Vehicle Hold Control (VHC), Ducati Traction Control (DTC), Ducati Wheelie Control (DWC), and Cornering Lights (DCL).
