2026 Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Launched With Upgrades, Prices Start At ₹2.49 Lakh

Royal Enfield has updated the Guerrilla 450 for the 2026 model year, bringing key changes to the motorcycle. The 2026 Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 now starts at ₹2.49 lakh (ex-showroom), and the bike comes with a new Apex entry-level variant. The Apex trim will be sold alongside the Dash and Flash variants, currently on sale. 

The new Guerrilla 450 Apex variant comes with key differences. This includes a lower, more committed riding posture, road-focused tyres, and revised design elements. Royal Enfield has lowered and repositioned the aluminium handlebars with a more forward-leaning riding triangle. The bike rides on new 17-inch Vredestein Centuro ST tyres, which promise better grip on wet and low friction surfaces. The Apex variant comes with two riding modes - Street and Sport - and comes with three colours - Apex Red, Apex Black, and Apex Green. Other enhancements include rim tapes, a sculpted rear seat cowl, and a colour-coded front cowl.

The Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 Flash and Dash variants now come with improved CEAT Gripp XL RE tyres, which get an enhanced compound and optimised tread pattern. The company says it delivers better grip and confidence in wet conditions, while retaining the same aesthetics. The variants also get updated ride modes with mode retention. The Dash variant now comes in the Twilight Blue colour scheme, along with complimentary handguards and a headlight grill.

The Guerrilla 450 continues to be underpinned by the steel twin spar frame. Power continues to come from the 452 cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled motor tuned for 39.4 bhp and 40 Nm of peak torque, paired with a 6-speed gearbox. All variants come with the 4-inch Tripper dash TFT display with Google Maps, as well as smartphone connectivity. 

Furthermore, Royal Enfield is now offering a comprehensive seven-year extended warranty along with roadside assistance. The warranty coverage comprises an additional 4 years/40,000 km (whichever is earlier), over and above the standard warranty of 3 years/30,000 km or 40,000 km (650cc motorcycles).
