Royal Enfield’s New Guerrilla 450 Trademark Isn’t Its Only Filing Intrigue

Royal Enfield has recently filed a trademark application for a potential new model called the Guerrilla 450. This filing has sparked curiosity among motorcycle enthusiasts, as it suggests that Royal Enfield may be developing a new bike based on the 450 platform. While details about the exact nature of the Guerrilla model are still unknown, the trademark application indicates that it will likely use a 450cc powerplant.

The trademark application was filed by Eicher Motors Limited, the parent company of Royal Enfield, on August 23, 2023. However, it has not yet been approved by the Indian government. Once approved, the application will include information such as the dates of first use and validity.

It’s important to note that filing a trademark application doesn’t guarantee that a company will actually produce a product under that name. Sometimes, companies file trademarks to protect specific names and reserve them for potential future use.

In addition to the Guerrilla 450 trademark, Royal Enfield has several other trademarks that are still valid but not currently in use. These include names like Royal Enfield Himalayan Sleet, Royal Enfield Himalayan Tourer, Royal Enfield Thunder Bird, Royal Enfield Café Racer, and more. While some of these names have been used in the past, Royal Enfield has a tendency to revive historic badges for its current lineup.

Speculation is running high about what future models Royal Enfield may introduce based on the 450 platform. According to an investor presentation, potential body styles could include a roadster, café racer, scrambler, and an adventure bike designed for off-road riding. However, until an official announcement is made, all of this remains speculation.
