2026 Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Launched With New Apex Variant

Royal Enfield has launched the 2026 Guerrilla 450 in India, introducing several updates along with a new Apex variant. Prices for the updated motorcycle start at ₹2.49 lakh (ex-showroom, Chennai). The highlight of the update is the new Apex variant, which is designed to deliver a sportier riding experience compared to the standard Dash and Flash trims. Royal Enfield has repositioned the handlebar to create a more forward-leaning riding posture, making it more engaging for enthusiastic riders. Visually, the Apex variant stands out with a small fairing around the LED headlamp and a rear seat cowl, which can be removed to reveal the pillion seat. These changes give the bike a slightly more aggressive and track-inspired look. The Guerrilla 450 continues to ride on Ceat Gripp XL tyres, although the updated version is claimed to offer better grip in both wet and dry conditions. Meanwhile, the Apex variant gets road-focused Vredestein tyres for improved on-road performance. Powering the motorcycle is the same 452cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine, producing 39 BHP and 40 Nm of torque, paired with a 6-speed gearbox. The bike offers two riding modes — Street and Sport, allowing riders to adapt performance based on conditions. In terms of features, the Guerrilla 450 comes equipped with a 4-inch TFT instrument console, which supports Google Maps navigation and smartphone connectivity, enhancing everyday usability. 2026 Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Prices (Ex-showroom) Apex Red – ₹2.49 lakh Black – ₹2.56 lakh Green – ₹2.56 lakh Twilight Blue – ₹2.49 lakh Dash Shadow Ash – ₹2.67 lakh Smoke Silver – ₹2.67 lakh Peix Bronze – ₹2.67 lakh Flash Brava Blue – ₹2.72 lakh
