Royal Enfield Flying Flea C6 Launched in India at 2.79 Lakh

Royal Enfield has officially entered the electric two-wheeler segment with the launch of the Flying Flea C6 in India, priced at Rs 2.79 lakh(ex-showroom). Drawing inspiration from the original Flying Flea motorcycle used during World War II, the C6 combines retro styling with modern electric performance and marks the debut of Royal Enfield’s new Flying Flea EV sub-brand. The Flying Flea C6 does not have a direct rival in India at present, though buyers may cross-shop it against premium electric motorcycles such as the Matter Aera, Ola Roadster Pro and Ultraviolette F77.
