Royal Enfield Flying Flea C6 reaches Pune

Royal Enfield launched the Flying Flea C6 early this year as its first electric motorcycle at Rs 2.79 lakh (ex-showroom, Bengaluru). While it was confined to Bengaluru for most of the year, the brand recently extended availability to Hyderabad and now to Pune. The Chennai-based manufacturer has announced that 10 dealers are equipped to offer sales and service for the C6 across the city. This adds to the existing 12 in Bengaluru and four in Hyderabad.

1. The C6 is powered by a 3.91kWh battery with 154km IDC range
2. The Scrambler-looking S6 is also in the works

Flying Flea C6: How far has Royal Enfield’s first EV evolved so far?

The brand’s most modern motorcycle yet

To recap, the Flying Flea C6 is a retro-styled electric motorcycle powered by a 3.91kWh battery pack with a claimed IDC range of 154km. It has a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) capable of producing 15.4kW and 60Nm at its peak. Besides India, Royal Enfield has also launched the Flying Flea C6 in the UK and five other European countries. There are three colours on offer – Flea Green, Storm Black and Parachute White – all costing the same. Opting for the Battery as a Service (BaaS) plan can lower the upfront price to Rs 1.99 lakh.

At launch, the C6 raised eyebrows with many modern features, including cornering-sensitive ABS and traction control, and five different ride modes, one of which is user-configurable. All of these details and the bike’s retro design with a girder fork can now be checked out by interested customers living in Pune. It’s worth mentioning that there’s also an upcoming S6, which shares its underpinnings with the C6 but adopts a more scrambler-like approach to the design.
