Royal Enfield has introduced the 2026 Guerrilla 450 lineup with updates across all variants. This time, the focus is not only on performance but also on everyday usability. In addition, the company has added a new APEX variant to make the lineup more diverse. Bookings for all variants have already opened, while test rides and sales begin from March 31, 2026.

APEX Variant Brings Sportier Ergonomics & Road-Focused Setup

The newly introduced APEX variant stands out as the most road-focused version in the lineup. It uses the same 452cc Sherpa engine, however, the riding posture feels more aggressive.

Royal Enfield has added lowered and repositioned aluminium handlebars for a forward-leaning stance. As a result, riders may experience sharper handling and better control during quick direction changes.

In addition, APEX gets 17-inch Vredestein Centauro ST tyres, which focus on road grip. These tyres aim to deliver better performance in wet and low-traction conditions. Perhaps this makes APEX suitable for riders who enjoy a sportier riding style.

Dash & Flash Variants Get Practical Improvements

The Dash and Flash variants also receive important updates, instead of just cosmetic changes. Royal Enfield has equipped them with new CEAT Gripp XL RE tyres. These tyres offer improved grip due to an updated compound and tread design.

Because of this, both variants feel more stable and confident on city roads and highways. In addition, Dash now features a new Twilight Blue colour option.

This variant also includes handguards and a headlight grille, which add extra practicality. However, the Flash variant remains the top option with premium styling and features for buyers.

Updated Ride Modes & Modern Tech Across All Variants

Royal Enfield has enhanced the ride modes of the entire Guerrilla 450 model. All variants are now supported to retain mode and after restarting the bike, the mode selected will be maintained.

The APEX model comes with Street and Sport, as well as Dash and Flash are enjoying such updates. Thus, riders have an opportunity to have a more comfortable riding experience.

Moreover, each of the variants is equipped with the Tripper Dash system. It has a 4-inch TFT display with Google Maps navigation, smartphone connectivity and media control. This leads to the riders having increased convenience when doing day-to-day rides.

Engine, Hardware & Pricing Remain Competitive

The Guerrilla 450 series progresses with the 452cc liquid-cooled engine that has a power output of about 40 PS and 40 Nm. It is combined with a 6-speed gearbox, and it provides a usable and smooth performance.

The motorbike has a steel twin spar frame and telescopic forks and monoshock at the rear. This is designed to provide a combination of comfort and handling to various riding requirements. The entry variants begin with 2.49 lakh prices, whereas the top variant with Flash features reaches 2.72 lakh.
