Since its launch in 2018, the Ducati Panigale V4 has set new benchmarks in the Superbike segment and is the best-selling Superbike in the world for the second year in a row.
The new Ducati 2020 Panigale V4 was officially released at the Zhuhai International Circuit, which further improves the ultimate performance, improves driving control, and reduces the energy consumption of the rider. The threshold is lower, and both professional and non-professional drivers can obtain excellent driving experience. Of course the ultimate goal is to achieve faster lap times.
First of all, the new Ducati Panigale V4 continues to use a number of advanced technologies derived from the WSBK tank Panigale V4 R. The most intuitive is the aerodynamic package. The widened and heightened fairing reduces wind impact for riders. The flanks can generate more than 30 KG of downforce at high speeds through aerodynamic principles. The side fins increase the oil, and the air flow rate of the liquid cooler increases the heat dissipation. Improve vehicle driving stability and comfort.
The frame has also been further improved. The adjustment of the front frame stiffness improves the driving experience to provide a better “road feel” of the front wheels at extreme lean angles. In addition, the Ducati Panigale V4 car is also equipped with an upgraded Ducati Traction Control System (DTC EVO 2). The system adopts a new “predictive” control strategy, and the driver feels more natural when the electronic control system is working. The Ducati Bidirectional Quick Shift System (DQS) EVO 2 shortens shift times to maintain higher shift speeds (over 10,000 rpm) and improves shift stability during aggressive acceleration and cornering. The model also features a specially developed Ride by Wire system that makes throttle opening and torque delivery more controllable.
Ducati’s new Panigale V4 is powered by a Ducati Desmosedici Stradale engine with a displacement of 1,103 cc. The engine is equipped with rear cylinder start-stop technology to improve thermal comfort. The engine delivers maximum performance of 214 hp at 13,000 rpm and 124Nm of torque at 10,000 rpm.
The new 2020 Panigale V4 model was unveiled in the first race of the Ducati Super Cup Challenge. This is also the opening race of the 2020 Ducati Super Cup Challenge DCPC. This race is held concurrently with the Pan Zhuhai Motorsports Festival. In the 2020 season, 15 Chinese non-professional drivers will continue to challenge themselves and break through the limit in the competition with the support of professional racing teams and coaches. It is worth mentioning that many drivers created the best Zhuhai circuit lap times of less than 1.50 seconds, which not only symbolizes the extraordinary level of the drivers this year, but also reflects the excellent performance of Ducati super motorcycles.
“The unique Ducati China Super Cup Challenge is unveiled together with the new Panigale V4. This once again proves the extreme sports gene flowing in the blood of the Ducati brand and proves Ducati’s leadership in this field. DCPC DU The Khadi Super Cup Challenge is the first single-make challenge in China. The advancement of the new Panigale V4, including the unparalleled new technology equipped with it, represents a new level in the field and provides every amateur or professional rider More fun and better safety.” said Fabrizio Cazzoli, general manager of Ducati China.
