The Ducati V21L for the 2025 World Championship

The main technical innovation of the championship concerns the Ducati V21L which will have a new battery, 8,2 kg lighter, thanks to new NCA cells with an energy density 10% higher than the cells used so far. The overall capacity of the battery remains unchanged, equal to 18 kWh, but the number of cells decreases, which go from 1152 to 960. As a direct consequence, the overall weight of the motorcycle decreases.
The new version of the Ducati MotoE for 2025 will therefore have a weight of just over 215 kg (216,2 kg to be exact) and lap times three to four tenths lower than those recorded last season.
The innovations, although important, are not limited to the battery pack alone. Other changes have been studied by Ducati to reduce weight and improve the range and performance of the V21L.
Significant changes have also been made to the electronic controls, thanks to the benefits of the development carried out by Ducati Corse in MotoGP. After the introduction of adaptive traction control with tire wear and new maps for ride-by-wire and engine braking in 2024, traction control by sectors will be added this year. This feature will allow riders to select a different traction control map for each of the four sectors into which the track is divided.
As for tires, Michelin will bring a further evolution of its tires made mostly with recycled and eco-sustainable materials. The percentage of these materials now exceeds 50% both at the front and rear.
