Royal Enfield has launched the 2026 Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 APEX variant in India, with bookings now open and retail sales scheduled to begin from March 31, 2026. The new APEX variant is priced at ₹2,49,194 (ex-showroom Chennai), while the broader Guerrilla 450 lineup continues to be offered in multiple variants and colour options.
The company stated that the APEX variant introduces updates aimed at enhancing the motorcycle’s road-focused riding dynamics. These changes include revised handlebars designed for a more forward-leaning and aggressive riding position, along with new road-biased tyres intended to improve on-road performance and cornering ability.
Royal Enfield has also introduced updated ride modes with retention functionality, allowing the motorcycle to retain the last selected ride mode even after the ignition is switched off. This feature enhances rider convenience and personalization.
Updates Across Variants
The existing Dash and Flash variants of the Guerrilla 450 have also received updates, including new tyre specifications and additional colour options. However, the core platform and mechanical setup remain unchanged across the lineup.
The 2026 Guerrilla 450 continues to be based on the Sherpa platform and produces 40 PS of power and 40 Nm of torque. All variants come equipped with a 4-inch TFT display, navigation support, and smartphone connectivity as standard features.
Commenting on the launch, Yadvinder Singh Guleria said, “The Guerrilla 450 has established itself as a compelling proposition for riders seeking an engaging, street-focused motorcycle that blends everyday usability with spirited performance.”
“With the 2026 updates, we are sharpening that proposition further — introducing a sportier expression with enhanced ergonomics, new road-biased tyres and features that amplify its agile, corner-hungry character,” he added.
Bookings and Sales Timeline
Royal Enfield confirmed that bookings for the 2026 Guerrilla 450 range have commenced, with test rides and retail sales set to begin from March 31, 2026. Prices across variants vary, with the Flash variant priced up to ₹2,72,479 (ex-showroom Chennai).
Additionally, the company has announced an extended warranty and roadside assistance programme of up to seven years across its motorcycle range, further enhancing customer ownership experience.
