Flying Flea C6 is the lightest Royal Enfield yet at 124kg Royal Enfield has unveiled the specifications for its first electric motorcycle, the Flying Flea C6, marking a significant shift for the traditional motorcycle manufacturer. The C6, which was first introduced at EICMA 2024 and has since been spotted testing on public roads, is positioned as the brand’s entry into the electric vehicle market. Weighing just 124kg, it is the lightest Royal Enfield model to date, reflecting the company’s focus on lightweight design and modern technology. The bike’s launch is set to coincide with the opening of Royal Enfield’s first Flying Flea showroom in Bengaluru on April 10, where pricing details will be officially announced. The C6 is based on the new ‘L’ platform and features a lithium-ion battery pack with a capacity of 3.91kWh. Royal Enfield claims the battery provides an Indian Driving Cycle (IDC) range of 154km, making it suitable for urban and semi-urban commuting. Power delivery is handled by a permanent magnet synchronous motor that produces a peak output of 15.4kW and 60Nm of torque. These figures translate to a claimed 0-60kph acceleration time of 3.7 seconds and a top speed of 115kph. The bike’s performance metrics position it as a competitive option in the growing electric motorcycle segment. Charging capabilities are also highlighted as a key feature. The C6 includes an on-board charger that can fully charge the battery in 2 hours and 16 minutes under ambient temperatures of 25°C. This rapid charging time is designed to minimize downtime for riders, aligning with the convenience-focused expectations of modern electric vehicle users. The bike also offers four riding modes—City, Rain, Highway, and Sport—alongside a Custom mode that allows riders to tailor settings to their preferences.#bengaluru #royal_enfield #flying_flea_c6 #eicma_2024 #flying_flea_showroom
