Royal Enfield Flying Flea C6 Electric Motorcycle Marks India Debut

Royal Enfield has officially unveiled the Flying Flea C6 in India, marking the introduction of its newly established Flying Flea sub-brand. In collaboration with Spanish electric motorcycle manufacturer Stark Future SL, the company is developing an entirely new lineup of electric bikes. The C6, also referred to as the FF.C6, is the first model in this series and is built on the newly developed “L” platform, which will also serve as the foundation for Royal Enfield’s future electric motorcycles. This modern electric bike draws significant design influence from the original Flying Flea, a historic model in the brand’s lineup. Scheduled for launch in 2026, the Flying Flea C6 will likely carry a price tag of approximately Rs 2.50 lakh (ex-showroom). Following its release, Royal Enfield plans to expand the Flying Flea range with additional models, including the S6 scrambler and potentially an electric variant of the Himalayan.
