Overview
- Royal Enfield started handing over the first Flying Flea C6 units to customers in Bengaluru, with initial deliveries reported on Saturday during the launch city rollout.
- The C6 is priced at Rs 2.79 lakh ex-showroom in Bengaluru and can be bought for Rs 1.99 lakh with Flying Flea’s Battery‑as‑a‑Service plan that separates the battery cost from the vehicle price.
- Flying Flea cites a 3.91 kWh battery, a permanent‑magnet synchronous motor making about 15.4 kW (≈20.65 bhp) and 60 Nm, a claimed IDC range of 154 km, 0–60 km/h in 3.7 seconds and a top speed of 115 km/h.
- The company has set up a hub‑and‑spoke service network in Bengaluru with a central hub in BTM Layout, shop‑in‑shop presence at select Royal Enfield dealers, and offers 24×7 roadside assistance to owners.
- The deliveries mark Royal Enfield’s entry into electric motorcycles and its cautious expansion could influence the premium electric two‑wheeler market as the brand moves the C6 into more Indian cities over time.
