Royal Enfield, the global leader in the mid-size motorcycle segment, today
launched the 2026 Guerrilla 450 APEX, a sharper, more focused expression of its street-performance
roadster.
Built around the same visceral Sherpa engine, the APEX redefines intent through stance and
control—featuring a lower, more committed riding posture, road-focused tyres, and design elements
that amplify its corner-hungry character. Every element is tuned to reward rider input, making
real-world streets feel faster, and more involving.
HIGHLIGHTS OF GUERRILLA 450 APEX VARIANT:
● Sportier riding position: Lowered and repositioned aluminium handlebars with a more
forward-leaning riding triangle for a commanding, sport-focused stance.
● New road-biased tyres: APEX variant features new, road-biased 17” Vredestein Centuro ST
tyres, carrying a sporty DNA while offering enhanced grip on wet and low friction surfaces.
● Updated ride modes: Refined Street and Sport ride modes with rode retention – allowing
seamless switching and retaining the last selected mode across ignition cycles.
● Sharper visual identity and aesthetics: New CTGs, including APEX Red, APEX Black and APEX
Green, further enhance the range, bringing a sharper visual identity. Standard rim tapes, a
sculpted rear seat cowl and a colour-coded front cowl add to the motorcycle’s sportier stance.
In addition to the APEX variant, the existing Flash and Dash variants will now come equipped with
improved CEAT GRIPP XL RE tyres, featuring an enhanced compound and optimized tread pattern,
delivering better grip and confidence in wet conditions, while retaining the same aesthetics. All variants
also receive the updated ride modes with mode retention. The newly introduced Twilight Blue colour on
the Dash adds a refined, contemporary touch, enhancing the range’s desirability while underscoring the
Guerrilla’s bold, road-focused character. It also comes with complimentary handguards and a headlight
grill.
Built on the iconic Sherpa platform and supported by a balanced steel twin spar frame, the 2026
Guerrilla 450 continues to deliver 40PS and 40Nm, offering strong, accessible performance across the
rev range. Across its variants, the motorcycle emphasises stability under acceleration, agility in corners
and confidence through changing road conditions.
All variants of the 2026 Guerrilla 450 are equipped with Royal Enfield’s Tripper Dash – a circular 4-inch
TFT display with Google Maps-powered navigation and seamless smartphone connectivity – enhancing
every ride with intuitive guidance, real-time ride insights, and providing a more connected, in-control
riding experience.
Royal Enfield Guerrilla has partnered with Fairtex, the iconic Muay Thai brand, on a special
collaboration rooted in discipline, precision, agility and controlled power – the traits of an urban fighter.
The partnership introduces a limited-edition range of Fairtex x Guerrilla gear, including boxing gloves,
Muay Thai shorts and a T-shirt, alongside a custom motorcycle based on the 2026 Royal Enfield Guerrilla
450 APEX. Finished in collaboration colours with a raw, street-focused stance, the build reflects the
focused aggression and athleticism shared by both brands.
The collaboration was unveiled at GRRR Nights X Underground, an event designed to showcase the
motorcycle’s versatility and performance. Drift demos, drag races and hands-on experiences gave
participants a direct feel of the Guerrilla 450, complemented by live sets from EPR Iyer and Shaddly
Mellow, along with DJ performances and an enthusiast meet-up that brought together the culture
around the machine.
The 2026 Guerrilla 450 adds a sharper, sportier dimension to the product, broadening its appeal to
riders seeking agility and control in everyday urban riding. The range goes on sale starting today across
authorised Royal Enfield dealerships and at royalenfield.com. Test rides and retail sales begin from
March 31st, 2026.
