Discover moreThe first electric Ducati is a unique bike, completely different from the zero-emission competition bikes seen to date. Developed in total synergy by Ducati and Ducati Corse engineers, it incorporates never seen before technical solutions for the battery pack, motor and inverter.
The initials "V21L" in Borgo Panigale identifies Ducati’s first electric motorcycle, a prototype that starting from 2023 will compete in the FIM MotoE™ World Cup, of which the Bologna-based motorcycle manufacturer will be a partner as sole supplier with 18 bikes on the track during each race weekend.
The battery pack is the most binding and characterizing element in terms of masses and dimensions, which on the Ducati MotoE is characterized by a shape specifically designed to follow the natural course of the middle area of the bike.

read moreThe Ducati MotoE has a total weight of 225 kg (12 kg less than the minimum requirements imposed by Dorna and FIM for a bike capable of completing the race distance) and can count on maximum power and torque figures of 110 kW (150 hp) and 140 Nm.
Read moreThe prototype components are cooled by a particularly sophisticated and efficient liquid system with a double circuit designed to meet the different thermal needs of the battery pack and the motor/inverter unit.
read moreThe battery pack weighs 110 kg and offers a capacity of 18 kWh with a 20-kW charging socket integrated into the tail. Inside there are 1,152 cylindrical cells of the “21700” type.
Power: 110 kW / 150 cv.
Torque: 140 Nm.
maximum rotation speed: 18.000 rpm
Weight: 21 kg.
Efficiency: up to 99%.
Weight: 5 kg.

Aluminium monocoque Front Frame for the front area weighing 3.7 kg.
Front: Öhlins NPX 25/30 pressurized fork with 43 mm diameter upside-down tubes
Rear: Öhlins TTX36 shock absorber
The steering damper is an adjustable Öhlins unit
Brembo: at the front, it consists of a steel double disc with a diameter of 338.5 mm of increased thickness currently being selected between 6.8 and 7.4 mm, which has fins on the inner diameter in order to increase the heat exchange surface and improve disc cooling under extreme track use. Two GP4RR M4 32/36 calipers with a PR19/18 radial master cylinder operate on this double disc. At the rear, the P34 caliper operates a 220 mm diameter, 5 mm thick single disc unit with a PS13 master cylinder.
The Electronic controls developed by Ducati Corse such as Ducati Traction Control, Ducati Slide Control, Ducati Wheelie Control and throttle/engine brake maps are indistinguishable from that of the racing bikes that Ducati riders are used to.

To build the MotoE prototype, the Borgo Panigale motorbike manufacturer assembled a team combining designers from Ducati and Ducati Corse, creating a truly extraordinary mix of skills. The realisation of the bike followed the procedure usually adopted on production motorbikes, triggering a close collaboration between team members that led to new ways of thinking and designing, stimulated by such a technologically challenging project.
Ducati R&D took care of all the Project Management activities, together with the design and simulations on the electric powertrain, while the design of the MotoE was taken care by the Centro Stile Ducati which also created the livery of the bike.
Ducati Corse worked on the electronic parts design, on the software controls and strategies, on the simulations of the dynamics and aerodynamics of the motorcycle and finally on the bike assembly, testing and data acquisition processes. The test team led by Marco Palmerini, worked on the track applying the same methodologies used in MotoGP, thanks also to the support of the riders Michele Pirro, Alex De Angelis and Chaz Davies.
