Ducati‘s just filed with the California Air Resources Board on a slew of bikes for 2024 – and one of them is a “2024 Multistrada V4 S Grand Tour” variant!
On top of a returning GT, we’ve also got visuals on the return of:

All machines are stated to have identical displacement (1158cc), weight (330kg), and codes – though the Grand Tour (GT) variant is the only one on the list that’s not a current, updated model.
Previously, Ducati had a Multistrada 1260 Grant Tour variant, debuted in 2020 and lauded as “an up-spec Multi with additional luggage capacity and comfort features” (via CycleWorld). Admittedly, not much has changed in the way of demand direction since the 2020 GT; Ducati’s Multistrada continues to be the company’s most popular bike, and riders continue to crave a cushier scoot with extra baggage space, and rider aids out the wazoo.

To this end, we expect Ducati’s 2024 Multistrada V4 S Grand Tour to carry similar componentry to her siblings (pipe, engine, and plastic – not the Rally’s metal – gas tank), as well as a few perks we see on the 2020 GT:

Chung thinks the bike will be debuted in November; we’re thinking EICMA sounds pretty promising.
