Royal Enfield is set to launch its new Guerrilla 450 model in the Indian market to establish itself in the competitive 400cc motorcycle market. This new model will go head-to-head with well-known bikes like the Hero Mavrick 440, Triumph Speed 400, KTM 390 Duke, Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 and Harley-Davidson X440. The Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 is creating a buzz and new spy photos offer a closer look at this much-anticipated bike.

Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 - Appearance
As seen in the spy shots, it features a round LED headlight, a single-pod instrument console and a one-piece seat. To keep costs down, the Guerrilla 450 might have a simpler instrument cluster compared to the Himalayan 450 but seems to share a similar tail design. One standout design element is the offset fuel filler, unlike the Himalayan's central filler. The Guerrilla's fuel tank appears smaller than the Himalayan 450's 17-litre tank, suiting its roadster style better.
Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 - Hardware
In terms of hardware, the Guerrilla 450 is expected to be quite different from the Himalayan. It is likely to use telescopic front forks with gaiters instead of USD units and alloy wheels with tubeless tyres. These features, along with a lower stance and road-oriented design, make the Guerrilla 450 perfect for city riding.
Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 - Engine
The Guerrilla 450 will be powered by the same 452cc Sherpa series engine found in the Himalayan. This is a liquid-cooled, single-cylinder 452cc engine producing a power output of 39.4 bhp and 40 Nm of peak torque. It will come with a 6-speed gearbox and a slip-and-assist clutch.
Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 - Features
In terms of features, the Guerrilla 450 is expected to include a 5-inch round TFT screen with connected technology, app-based navigation, LED lighting for the headlamp and taillight alongwith advanced switchgear.
Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 - Expected Price
While the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 is priced at Rs 2.85 lakh (ex-showroom), the Guerrilla 450 is expected to be priced around Rs 2.40 lakh. With these features and a competitive price, the Guerrilla 450 is poised to attract urban riders looking for a stylish and capable bike.
